Question about Needle Replacements for Patriot 105
Posted by When Kittens Attack on Monday, May 26, 2014 9:25 PM

I plan on purchasing my first airbrushing equipment soon. Already purchased a 105 Patriot from Amazon awhile back when it was on sale. I was looking into purchasing needle replacements for it. I see there are multiple sizes for it, which one should I get for painting 1/35, 1/48, and 1/72 military model kits? Should I order just one or more needles in one go?

51-046 Model #105, 155, 360 & 3155 - Super Detail Needle

51-047 Model #105, 155, 360 & 3155 - Detail Needle

51-048 Model #105, 155, 360 & 3155 - General Purpose Needle

The detail needle is the standard size for the Patriot. The spray regulator will be marked with an F.  Why not work with it for a while and see whether you want something finer or coarser?  It may be all you will need.

There are 3 parts that must match; the needle, spray regulator, and tip.
