I forget the consensus...but I think I remember a thread about this airbrush? Who has one? I have the Badger Cressendo. Decent, does what I want but want a little more control.
Any suggestions about this brush before I buy? Any accesories I should also get with it?

I just got one from that place in louisianna. They have one that includes the hose and yes it is different than others. It is a nice quality hose. It is about 10.00 cheaper I think if you get it included instead of buying the 2 items separate. I like it. Havent used it too much, but I like the control. I use some cheap single action brushes and I had a badger knockoff double action. This one is 1000 times better than the badger copy.

I have 2 and like them a lot,,,,,you can get adapters to intermix brushes and hoses. If you have any questions these guys have been great.

Don't be afraid of dual action .. Learning curve is like 10 minutes... push down air only comes out .. pull back slowly paint will be added slowly .. pull back hard it blast
