Hi guys,
Just recently got back into modeling and have finally decided that I do need an air brush. I never used 1 and have been spraying my armor with spray paint and masking tape. I was looking at a Paasche H-SET Airbrushing System with AirBrush-Depot TC-20T Air Compressor Storage Tank. It comes with an H#1L Single-Action Airbrush. It is within my price limits and from what I have seen on this sight many guys use a Paasche. I have a huge automotive air compress with 30 gallon tank in the garage but don't want to hook an airbrush to that. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Sal

No problems using the garage compressor...... just use a secondary regulator and a moisture trap near the aribrush (as far away from the hose tank as possible, and be sure to drain the tank periodically)

Sal: I have been using my Paasche H for well over 20 years it works as good as the day it was new.Compressor size does'nt matter just as the other fellow said use a good water filter and keep the tank dry. ACESES5
