This is a workhorse airbrush good for medium detail to large background spraying. The unique cone shaped nozzle with tapered needle make for a brush that sprays like a .35mm all the way up to a .5mm tipped airbrush. Solvent paints are OK with this airbrush as it contains PTFE packing. One drawback to this airbrush is the packing is not user replaceable and requires sending back to Badger for replacement. On the upside there is lifetime replacement warranty on the packing.
The versatility of a bottom feed airbrush is being able to load up the small side cup for small work and large volume bottles for T-Shirts and larger spraying. All of the parts on the airbrush are "Finger Tight" so tear down and re-assembly are a breeze, no tools needed.
Parts are inexpensive and easy to find, the thick needle is durable and not as delicate as some airbrushes out there, its made to take some abuse. There is no removable air cap on this airbrush, just a protective storage cap so make sure you are careful with the front of the airbrush when not in use.
