You might contact Coast Airbrush in California. Good people and Certified Iwata dealer.
TheWaggishAmerican I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with the pricing/time I could be expecting by sending my airbrush in to be serviced. Their website doesn't offer much in the way of information.

Don't know about the US, but in the UK Iwata have a 5 year warranty, or 10 years if registered with the importer, airbrushes.com. Warranty doesn't include err.... user error, such as dropping it on the tip!
They also offer services from a checkup to a full stripdown & rebuild, £19-£36 ($26-$49) plus postage & parts.
I've had my Iwata HP-CS 13-14 years now...

Don't feed the CM!
TheWaggishAmerican somewhat related, but how does the Neo compare to the HPC+? I'm thinking of getting one as a stopgap while I wait to either have my HPC+ repaired or try and fix it myself.

It's good to have a backup, the Neo would do well in that function I think. Keep you painting and you might even find a seconday use for it. Some guys have just a Neo and love it. And at least your air connect would be the same thread........
If you haven't already, have a look at "Don Wheeler's airbrush tips" website. He offers detailed info about airbrushes, to include maintenance items. If you e-mail him with a question he'll answer, a very helpful man with knowledge about airbrushes in general.
Doing it yourself will surely save quite a lot, and it's enjoyable to get to know your AB well, so you can care for it properly over the long term. Otherwise, Don might be able to steer you to a good place for repairs.
Good luck with it.
It's an HPC-Plus that I know at least needs a new valve and new needle seals, very possibly needs something else as well.
thanks
