Need a Airbrush?

I always come across deals on things I don't need but I figured I would share. Amazon has the Paasche Talon air brush on sale for $68 (originally $119). Super good deal.

I bought one two years ago and haven't picked up my Iwata since.

I'm with you Frank!!!

That's a good deal, I picked one up for $75. It is the heaviest airbrush I own but for the price its worth a try!!! I was told to flush the airbrush thoroughly after use with water and cleaner and I have used it a half dozen times without breaking it down to clean it. Very impressed about that!!

Same as I paid and would buy another if I needed it. Much less finicky then my Iwata as I slack on cleaning it too.

My Iwata's
I have a Gravity (HP-CS but has the Kustom handle on it) with.35
I have a siphon (HP-BCS with Quick clean handle) with .5 (use this for my bulk colors like whites, i am not a fan of this gun, think i would rather have a Kustom with the large cup)

I also have the Badger 105 which has the stock needle i believe is a .5 which i am thinking of replacing.
