                        I'm debating buying a Badger 360 a/b to step up to double action from my old Binks. Bear Air has this one for a good price, and was wondering what everyone thinks.

                        Thanks,
                        Brian

                        The Universal 360 is pretty much my main airbrush since I got it. Its the same as the badger 155 antheim with added feature that you can rotate the color cup into a gravity feed position.

                        works great for me.. easy to keep clean been using mine for almost 2 years now with no problems what so ever...

                        my website. I think the last 5 projects were done with the 360.. all in all i've been airbrushing only about 3 1/2 years..

                        hanks for the info, Del. It looks like the best compromise, as an Iwata and some of the other brands are WAY out of my price range. Great looking paint jobs, BTW!

                        I have the 360 and love it as well. The complaint I hear from others about it is that the color cup is smaller than the standard gravity feed brush. Personally I haven't found this to be a problem and I use it primarily in the gravity mode (I find it less of a hassle to fill the cup a couple of times than clean out the siphon jar after every use). I would highly recommend the 360 to anyone that asks.

                        Well, you all have convinced me that the 360 is the best buy for the dollars, so I have taken the plunge, as it were. I'll let you all know how well I fare with it! Thanks again!

                        I use the 360 exclusively now and I love it. It is durable, uses one needle and is the best damn airbrush I have ever had. the examples below illustrate the versatility of this tool:
