airbrush/compressor compatibility
Posted by ozzman on Sunday, May 1, 2011 1:23 PM

I have two airbrushes and a compressor

One airbrush is a Airbrush City Model 162

The other is a Master Airbrush Model E91

The compressor that I have is one of those elephant shaped ones, I forget the name. When I hook up the E91 to the compressor, it works fine, but when I try the Model 162 with an adapter, it does not work. Only a little air comes out. Does anyone know why that is? I have a theory that it's a problem with the airhose I use with the Model 162

thank you, ozzman

are you sure the valve is properly working in the city model?

yes the the airbrush works fine with a compressed air can, but it won't work with the compressor
