Some of you just dont know how convenient it is to have a primer on airbrush that you dont need to disassemble to clean after every use. Thats the main reason i have a Syphon airbrushe.
@@voodoonights1671 If you still have it, that is generally a pretty easy fix and would not be bad for a first time electronics repair. I will warn you, electronics repair becomes a hobby in itself...
I think that works very well. But I think in part it’s your experience with the thinning of the paints using a really great paint you gave that device the best of the best to use with your skill of knowing what paint would really go through five needle in a nice way, I think people would probably struggle more with paint or thicker paint and myself included. I know that’s one of my problems is knowing how to thin my paint when painting but as always a proud patriot member supporting the channel. Be well be you
I have one of those portable airbrushes and it works fairly well. It’s nowhere near as good as a proper compressor but it suffices. One of my complaints about it is the compressor isn’t as powerful as I’d like but this airbrush seems to have plenty of power. I’m actually really impressed. Even though it doesn’t look like much it really performs. Great find!
That could be super useful for folks who only have a small space for their kit building and no room for a compressor setup. If you do spray a car please choose a color with metal flake, I'm curious to see if it plays nice with those.
Looks hamdy, but you only did a couple of small pieces. I wish you had have primed and sprayed a model that you wasn't too worried about for a longevity, multi pass test. Could you use this for a complete model spray??
Always surprised at most of these items you test and I love when I think that it's not going to perform well and boom it performs very well. Thank you very much for sharing my friend it's greatly appreciated. Hope the family is doing great and the paints are still killing it. Everyone keep yourselves and love ones safe and healthy and remember to SMILE 😊God Bless 🙏
Many thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. I don't want to prime my models in the apartment at the moment, but I don't have electricity outside of the apartment and spray cans become too expensive for me over time.
I went and bought one of these spray guns. First tried it with an acrylic black primer thinned like I do for a conventional airbrush. It works for about 15 seconds then stops. Have to continually clean the needle. Upped the amount of thinner and now getting better results. Then tried with "Mister Surfacer" 1500 Thinned 1:3. Works great! Very pleased with the results. Thanks for the heads up for this product.
I had another post , not sure if it was removed cos of the amazon links, sorry my bad if that's why. anyway for all asking: bottles, I got 30x 100ml bottles with caps for £14 uk from japchet on amazon nozzles are as someone else said luer lock 21g blunt tip 15mm, 25mm total length, i got all metal ones which fit fine. you must get the BLUNT tip ones. also from amazon uk. tubing is just silicone tubing 3mm inner diameter (ID) and 4mm outer diameter (OD) and cut to required length depending on bottle size. amazon uk i'm pretty sure amazon us also have they same as they are mostly generic products.
Thank you for sharing this test. You mention that the top-ends of the bottles are interchangeable. They will be, however the tubes that feed the paint from the bottom are probably different lengths as the height of the two included bottles differ.
As you said there's no description of the differences between the water based and the oil based versions. Since I'm not very experienced with air brushing, do you have any input on the level 1 compared to level 3? Best I can find is about darkness of spray tan levels. Thanks either way.
The difference between the water vs oil is the bottle material. PA bottles for oil based. If we can find the appropriate bottles for those needles, it could make it quite convenient.
I have tried the electric airbrushes there rubbish when they heat up the pump starts to loose its pressure but for a primer and getting down a base layer this looks great and go back to the compressor n AB for finer detail and weathering Using the Airbrush and compressor is a nightmare takes forever aswell!
Looks like a nice tool. Will be interested in a long time test, if you still like it after it has a few hours on it. "Amazon" shipping has really gone down hill, poorly packed boxes, broken produce, and slower than they used to be (I watch the tracking and wonder how some package wonder back and forth between two towns, like it was stuck on the wrong truck.) The Paasche H is great when you need to spray a lot primer or the same color paint. They are inexpensive, have several size bottles available, easy and quick to clean and have 3 sizes of nozzles available for different viscosities of paint. Bottles of paint can by stored for a day or two by capping the feed tube and tape over the vent hole.
this is marketed as a air brush that requires zero cleaning and just replace the bottle with the colour you need and you are ready to go. The have the bottles for sale that you can premix all your paints and store them in it.
Awesome review! I ordered one. Were you able to locate spare bottles that are clear? I found metal bottles on Amazon, but think I'd prefer clear, so I can see what's in it, and how much. Thanks!
You described it very well. A more convenient spray can. And that's why i think it's too expensive for what it offers. I mean, if you already have a decent setup (compressor,booth etc) it would be better buying a dirt cheap airbrush of this style and call it a day.They're perfect for priming The small wings did lose some detail, maybe you missed it in your excitement, and the shield doesn't really look very....crisp after painting. But maybe it's just me being too picky. I do have an eye for detail and finesse. But i do see it's value for thins other than scale modeling. Like touching up paint on vehicles, appliances or painting stuff in general that don't require detail.
just wanted to say thank you for all things you mostly buy and test . you tested paint shakers and i needed something much better then what i had ......SOOooooo I got the four E's shaker And I love it . and yes i Love your line of paints , I mostly use Tamiya. I'm a petroleum kinda guy, never liked Acrylics . So Barbatos thank you .
Now the question becomes, will the nozzle screw onto the top of the Molotow markers or Dual Exo bottles.. And how does it respond to different sized replacement needles. 😊
Interesting. I may consider getting something like this for priming so I can save my airbrush for the painting instead since I'm working on multiple things at a time.
Looks neat! As it so happens, I recently picked up one of the "No- Name " cordless compressor/brush combos from Spraygunner that you had mentioned in a previous video. So far, I've been very happy with it, so thank you for the recommendation!
It would be great to know if you could just keep primer in that bottle and not have to mess around cleaning every time. If so, I'd probably get one just for that.
Im sorry if this isnt the place to be really asking this but could you keep us up to date on the sparmax flyer sr2? Figure you might know more how to keep track of something thats come out in Japan but not here in the states yet.
Hi, this is a Japanese review with English subtitles. It has some useful info about the new version compared to the original. Thought you might be interested. ua-cam.com/video/APYRy_cJZ7M/v-deo.htmlsi=goX1mlWYDmlKAYgU
I wish I woulda found out about this one before I bought the regular needle type airbrush (it’s one of the battery operated compressor ones) I got from hobby lobby, this one looks SO much easier to use. It works really great with that Gaia paint, would you post on the community tab a quick test with an acrylic craft paint or enamel? It’s kinda surprising how well it did with the Gaia.
Not in this video but I have seen someone review a similar device and they found out the bottles are ridiculously common. Sadly can't help more then that, but if you search for other people reviewing these devices you might find out what they are :)
I would venture a guess, there's nothing 'special' about it. You just need a bottle with the same thread/ size and one not so big it's too heavy or doesn't fit. Look for a supplier of bottles for folks that make essential oils, or scent sprays and tinctures. They come in both glass and soft and hard plastic. Clear and colored. And lots of sizes. If you have a local store that does plastics/epoxies and supplies, my local shop has tons of bottles, glass and plastic. Some marine supply places have stuff like this too, for boat builders/repairs. Find the size you need and compare the price for the same on amazon or wherever. Plus they usually come with lids or sell them extra. Same type places often have the needle tips as well and in different needle sizes/gauges.
@@devlaminckx3382 Well that stinks. I'll have a go finding then online and post here. (The nozzles may not have to be an exact fit. Taking up extra space with o-rings might be an option for ones that are a bit small)
@@devlaminckx3382 I spent a bunch of time searching the web, and found lots of bottles from various places like Amz, in different sizes. Plus I found some needle/nozzles that looked to be the right fit, in various sizes. I posted a bunch of links, in reply to you, to it all but I guess Mr. Rex or the YT A.I. didn't like it as they are all gone. Sorry.
I just looked up on Amazon and they have one that comes with 5 needles for $45.99 SAKER and I just saw one for $42.99 that is nice i'm going to get me one thanks
cool sprayer just looked on amazon....not sure what the difference between level 1 or level 2 is , but will look again. And you sir has a paint fetish!...LOL would love to buy a box of your duplicates to both add and try in my selection! We as modelers, must support this insane hobby!
Pretty neat little spray gun, looked like it worked pretty good. I agree options for extra bottles and those needles would be nice. Your paint colors are awesome as well. On a side note i wouldn't mind hearing a sound test of the new audio system on a video. PS. I just love your whole set up, for modeling/painting. Good luck with the 100k subs, its coming.
I’ve not seen the brand you bought here in the U.K. but there is another one popping up in my socials feeds. It looks identical to yours. I have several kits with large pieces of plastIc to prime, over 3 feet and 4 feet for some pieces, so this would be ideal for them. Great review, thanks.👍
I did a follow up video to this where I show bottles that fit. Also be on the look out for an upcoming video with a system similar to this but you can buy extra bottles and nozzles
Interesting airgun. I think I would miss not being able to just spray air in between coats though. You're really tempting me with your latest batch of paints. Not like I need more metals in my collection but I bought your previous set and they go on great.
Do you have a link for the small funnels you used in this video? I check some of your other videos and couldn't find a link to them. You also mentioned that you thinned the primer before you applied it. What do you recommend for a thinning ratio?
Hey Robert, great video! I purchased one and look forward to using it for primer painting...... Have you had time to research a compatible bottle that would fit the nozzle lids? What's the best way to search for bottles that might work?
@barbatosrex9473 the 2 oz bottles of Createx fit perfectly also if you go to hobby lobby's in the modeling section they have these four empty paint bottles they are 2.3 oz bottles with white tops they also fit perfectly but they're slightly bigger so you might have to get a bigger hose I've been using them and they have been working fine
I wanted to let you and your viewers know that Harbor Freight has a new airbrush line out by Black Widow. Two, to be precise. They look really sharp! Matte black with gold trimming. One is a conventional airbrush. The other is a pistol grip. I'd be very interested as to your thoughts on these new airbrushes. Maybe a review? Anyway, thanks for all that you do. I consider you to be the premier authority on this subject and trust your opinion. You have never steered me wrong. Thank you
Interesting. But, I don't understand the difference between Level 1 and level 3, and oil- or water-based paints. What are the differences in the spray gun?
and here i was dreading priming cuz for some reason my white stynlrez is leaving rings of residue on my gravity feed cup. I enjoy this channel but damn I keep opening my wallet every time I see a good review, last thing was the vortex paint mixer, now im looking at this thing.
I’m new to all this and I just purchased the same one… I put my paint inside the bottle and nothing comes out except air… How does this spray gun know that there’s anything connected to it to intake the paint to spray it? I am absolutely baffled.
@@barbatosrex9473 Thanks, I spent some time looking for extra caps. I identified the cap type, they are 20-410 threads and with a luer lock. I'm 95% sure they are 20-410, and 5% they are the next size down 18-410
i would really like to learn airbrush art and this looks like an interesting introduction but if i like it i would have to find a way to buy bottles and needles en mass
Does that specific unit you got have any indications of a brand or model# or a serial# or anything like that? There's several listed on Amz (Amz Canada for me) and they are all listed as "Generic" but of course vary from $30 to $100 bucks, but all pretty much look the same. Thanks!
@@barbatosrex9473 Thanks. Yes I saw that. I'm in Canada, so have to look it up here. They're likely all the same anyway. Thanks! Enjoying a little video binge on you channel. :)
@@barbatosrex9473I’m in the uk and can see a couple of sellers but noticed that there seems be a 3.7v and 7.4v version, which voltage was yours rated at?
The price has dropped. For the Level 1 oil based paint, it's now 33.49 and for the level 3 water based paints, it's now 43.59. Probably the seals in the needle is the difference would be my guess. Thanks for the review.
Rex, i know your mostly a car/gunpla guy, but have you ever thought about making military colors for us aircraft/armor guys? Just wondering, would love to support your new paint line but i only do military kits and so most of these bright colors (even though they look great) wouldn't be of much use to me.
@@barbatosrex9473 Hey that is cool, because I do military aircraft and vehicles as well as some star wars vehicles. So far I've bought the metal colors for use on exhaust nozzles for jet aircraft and the star wars models. Would love to see the military colors.
Any chance of getting your paints at a UK, or even a European supplier? I'd love to get the whole paint set, but $250 dollars for shipping is too much. Love the videos.👍
I don't think that there's a difference between lacquer or non lacquer paint sprayers. Just one of those Chinese scam tactics. Your work area looks fantastic! Very nicely arranged.
Some of you just dont know how convenient it is to have a primer on airbrush that you dont need to disassemble to clean after every use. Thats the main reason i have a Syphon airbrushe.
I agree. I had one a while back but the rechargeable batteries became unreliable and wouldn't charge. Was a good idea while it worked.
I have a old badger 200 siphon air brush. Not as convenient as this little spray gun. But I do have extra bottles that I keep primer & paint in.

That's a pretty good idea.
I believe you can get the bottles at Temu
I don't have an airbrush, nor do I have space for an airbrushing booth. This could be perfect for me.
I’m new to all this and I just purchased the same one… I put my paint inside the bottle and nothing comes out except air… How does this spray gun know that there’s anything connected to it to intake the paint to spray it? I am absolutely baffled.
Where did you get the small steel funnels from?
They came with a box of Boston Round glass bottles
where do you get the funnles
I got one of these and really like it. Has anyone found out where to get extra bottles or caps?
Yes, watch my latest video
@@barbatosrex9473 Thanks, I spent some time looking for extra caps.
I identified the cap type, they are 20-410 threads and with a luer lock.
I'm 95% sure they are 20-410, and 5% they are the next size down 18-410
Those are called Industrial Needles
i would really like to learn airbrush art and this looks like an interesting introduction but if i like it i would have to find a way to buy bottles and needles en mass
Does that specific unit you got have any indications of a brand or model# or a serial# or anything like that? There's several listed on Amz (Amz Canada for me) and they are all listed as "Generic" but of course vary from $30 to $100 bucks, but all pretty much look the same.
Thanks!
No brand listed. Mine was $33. The link I put is directly to the one I used here
@@barbatosrex9473 Thanks. Yes I saw that. I'm in Canada, so have to look it up here. They're likely all the same anyway. Thanks! Enjoying a little video binge on you channel. :)
@@barbatosrex9473I’m in the uk and can see a couple of sellers but noticed that there seems be a 3.7v and 7.4v version, which voltage was yours rated at?
I'll check for you, I'm on the road right now
That would be great for my camping trips when my compressor isnt available!
The price has dropped. For the Level 1 oil based paint, it's now 33.49 and for the level 3 water based paints, it's now 43.59. Probably the seals in the needle is the difference would be my guess. Thanks for the review.
Rex, i know your mostly a car/gunpla guy, but have you ever thought about making military colors for us aircraft/armor guys? Just wondering, would love to support your new paint line but i only do military kits and so most of these bright colors (even though they look great) wouldn't be of much use to me.
I just got in a full line of military paints from Splash Paints, check them out
@@barbatosrex9473
Hey that is cool, because I do military aircraft and vehicles as well as some star wars vehicles. So far I've bought the metal colors for use on exhaust nozzles for jet aircraft and the star wars models. Would love to see the military colors.
Impressive I have to check it out 👍👍
It might be useful for small jobs, but I would prefer a better spray pattern. It just seems to narrow a pattern for me.
Awesome info as usual
Man I bought one it just got here and it doesn't even work :( I was so excited to have a new gun just for primer
Any chance of getting your paints at a UK, or even a European supplier? I'd love to get the whole paint set, but $250 dollars for shipping is too much. Love the videos.👍
It's between $30 - $50 for shipping. You might be reading it wrong
Quite amazing!
I don't think that there's a difference between lacquer or non lacquer paint sprayers. Just one of those Chinese scam tactics.
Your work area looks fantastic! Very nicely arranged.
Those bottles and threads look like my tattoo ink bottles. 👍
That's cool.
I was expecting a video on the black widow
I’ve been waiting for you to make this video. Let’s see what you think….
Looks like a cheaper version of the Sparmax Flyer-SR
Isn't that thing only for water based paints? Someone on reddit said it says lacquer thinners will melt internal components.
by the way...worcster mass here!
