Aztek/Testors airflow regulator
Posted by jinithith2 on Friday, April 1, 2005 4:39 PM
does anyone know a airflow regulator for the testors mighty mini?
or any thing that will fit it?
the hose connector thingy is shaped so it can fit only testors airbrushes

the mighty mini ---is that the clear blue one or the rectangular grey one?

the clear blue one takes any regulator...

the mighty mini is the rectangular black/grey one.
I think it was designed for a specific airbrush, because it's making my other one(Double action) spit paint occasionally.
(when I'm not pulling back but paint is coming out)

hmmm that sounds like the airbrush... what type of airbrush is it? if it is an Aztek then you need to tighten the nozzle with that little wrench perhaps.. if not an anztek then it may be the needle isn't seated againt the nozzle..

I would look on the Testors site for an adaptor for it... I know they have one to adapt the Aztek brushes to a 1/4" male connector to connect to a regular compressor, they should have one to go the opposite way!

I was thinking about it today and if you put a little piece of masking tape over the compressor nozzle, that might regulate the flow.
I haven't tried it yet. cna somebody tru and see?
