A simple question

airhose, compressor, those little paint thingy's, paint, thinner, scrap model's, paper, masking tape, water, and if your n00b, spare parts.

Spawney,

What kind of compressor do you have and what paint are you going to be using? If your compressor does not have a regulator/moisture trap then you need to get one. You also need an air hose for the airbrush if you are ordering an airbrush alone. If you use enamels then you can buy a gallon or quart can of automotive lacquer thinner to clean the airbrush with but make sure you do it with good ventilation as that stuff is dangerous if sprayed out into a non-vented room. If you use acrylics like Tamiya you can use a mixture of 2 parts distilled water, 1 part Windex, and 1 part Simple Green cleaner to clean the airbrush with. Some people use just Windex alone but the ammonia in it can discolor the chrome after a while.

Tanks for answering my question. Well....I have another one for you guys (surprise, surprise ). What else do I need, along with my airbrush and compressor, to spray paint, clean my airbrush, sotre it..... I probably need some paint (of course), some thinner.....but what else?

I know i'm asking a lot, but......I need to know.
Thanks you very much......

i say get the anthem. its cause they are practically the same, but the anthem parts are cheaper and it disassembles faster.

They are both great airbrushes.

The Omni 3000 is nice because of the reversable aircap that you can turn around to expose the needle to pick the paint off it when needed or you can leave the needle protected in the other position.
The Anthem is the fastest airbrush to take apart in the world and it has as good of a trigger as I have ever felt on any airbrush.
Pick the one you like better as they both spray about the same.
