    Nuther noob air brush question (2)....

    So if the cheap filters just remove particles, could I buy something like the thin sheets of cooker hood charcoal stuff, and add that either in front or behind the cheap particle filter or would that not work, or am I simply overthinking this, Lol, probably....

    Have not looked at replacement fan filters yet, which are the "branded" ones, and should I avoid "cheap" ones?

    Nuther noob air brush question (2)....

    If you have a proper air brush spray painting booth, with the proper extractor fan vented, etc.... How often do you change the filter thing? I suppose it depends on how much you paint, eg: lots of painting the filter will clog up faster, less painting and the filter will last longer, etc. But...

    Nuther noob air brush question....

    If you have a full, proper air brush spray painy booth, with proper extraction, out of a nearby window, do you still need to wear a face mask? As presumably most of the particles are being pulled away from you... Only really asking as almost all the YT vids I see, the person in the vid is never...

    Which airbrush would you buy?

    I've seen the back flushing being used on a couple of vids now, I think as its only done with the air flow on, so in theory that stops any paint going any further back than the bowl? I do think its a more "advanced" technique anyway, so prolly will not be trying it for now.... :)

    Next build dilemma, which kit to choose?

    I'm actually thinking about an old vintage Matchbox kit I have, in 1:72 of a German Ju87 Stuka, cost me nowt in an auction lot a while back, and as I'm about to dip my toe in the AB World, I might use that as my first Guinea Pig /victim to try out the AB..... we'll see.... (y);)

    Which airbrush would you buy?

    I'm all set up, but not going to use it today, been watching several "How to" vids on air brushing for beginners, eg: me! Seems like I should start with a lowish pressure, around 15 to 20? and I should also start with thinned paint, either mix separately then pour in the AB bowl, or if adding...

    Compressor leak.

    Good advice mate, I'll try to remember it for mine, cheers

    Compressor leak.

    As above mate, don't use it, its just not worth the risk when using any type of HPA (High Pressure Air) device. Can I ask how long you have had the compressor? as I've just bought the same one myself....[Gulp!]
