Gravity Feed

Kind of a loaded question there.. you're about to get 100 answers from the group... there are some good ones out there, the Thayer and Chandler Omni 4000, the Badger 100LG, the Iwata HP-CR and HP-CS to name a few, I would venture that the ones I mentioned are used by quite a few people here, if not a majority of the gravity fed users here on the forum.

Personally, I own the Iwata HP-CR and love it! I know many people that own the others though and have not heard a bad thing about any of them.

I've been staring at the Badger 100G for a while, if I can just pull out the ol'Visa when the wife isn't looking! Crap, she's looking!!

Right now I'm using the 150 and loving it.

If you like the feel and performance of your 150, then the 100G or 100LG would be for you. It uses the same head assemblies as the 150 ( fine, meduim, and large ).

I agree, go with the 100LG or the Omni 4000 as they are both great airbrushes.
The Iwata's are also nice but I am a Badger-for-life kind of guy.

Hey H3nav,
Where do you sim instruct?

A gravity feed airbrush allows lower air pressure and a finer spraying paint line. The airbrush cup is above the paint nozzle and the shorter paint cup path makes gravity feed airbrush more responsive for controlling the paint flow. The lower the air pressure the more finger and hand control is needed to spray paint on a model. The better built and smoother the precision parts on an airbrush are then the smoother and more enjoyable it is to operate the tool. For fine airbrush lines at very low pressure I use one of my gravity feed Iwata airbrushes and leave the less important, general, airbrush paint spraying to my ‘other company’ gravity feed brushes.

I use the Aztek A470. No complaints here.
