New airbrush recommendations....

[East TN.Hunt-n-Fish]

I've been airbrushing for a couple of years now with royal max and master airbrushes. These have generally been pretty good. But as I get better at this I think I'd like to upgrade to a better quality/less frustrating airbrush. This will be a big upgrade for me as I'm pretty tightly budgeted, but I really enjoy this hobby. I know most everyone is using the Iwata brushes. That being said there are several different models to choose from and I'd like to know from someone with experience which model *under $200** would be best suited for painting lures as we do. Any info and opinions would be appreciated.

I have an Iwata HP-C Plus that I got many years ago. Been very pleased with it. Hobby Lobby often has them and almost always has a 40% off one item coupon.

I’ve also got the Neo dual action siphon feed and gravity feed brushes that do well even though they’re a cheaper entry level brush.

Thanks for the info. I looked into the HP-C Plus but all I see on hobby lobby's website is the HP-CS. I'm not sure what the difference is but the reviews I've read are pretty good.

The plus has a finer tip and is more accurate than the CS. Both are good brushes but the plus will be better for fine detail work.

I love my HP-CS. Check out Coast Airbrush they have great prices and offer upgraded parts.

Ok. I'll do some more research on both. Thanks again for all the info guys!

You can no longer use the coupon for airbrushes or any item with a yellow tag.

Iwata HP-CS is a great all around brush. Super pleased with mine.

Why doesn’t that surprise me?
