aztek ab

It should have come with an adapter to allow the thin nylon Aztek hose to connect with your compressor.  If you want to use a Badger hose, you'll need to get an adapter.  If you can't find anything at your loca hobby shop, poke around through online airbrush retailers who sell Azteks.

Best of luck, Roy. 

Man, you say "Aztek" and there's always someone who has to say something bad about them.  It's like a Ford vs. Chevy debate.  By the way, I thought Aztek airbrushes were originally from England before Testors bought them.

A loving fan of Aztek,

Jesse

LOL..... now it makes sense!

When I was working out of the US Embassy in Bolivia in 1996, we had a big 4th of July party. The British Embassy sent over a huge red white and blue cake, with the words "Happy Birthday America! Love- Mum." We got a great laugh out of that.

Welcome to the forum limey!

Did you find the part you needed?

Check your LHS for the adapter (if your AB didn't come with one; my own aztek did), and surf around the net (testors.com) to find one.

BTW, pay no heed to the Aztek bashers, its a fine airbrush that will do the job proper, if you take the time to learn the tool well.

I'm with Ed on this . I use a Badger 150 and /or a Aztex 470 . Both are good air brushes . If i had the means i'd post a pic of the models i've painted with either of them , you cant see any difference . Ya i know , they both look the same , like c**p .
