Hi everybody Bergie asked me if I could stop in and see if I could help. So far everyone has offered very good suggestions. A regulator and a moisture trap are a must. There are very few projects that I can think of that you can get away with out both. Senco makes a regulator – trap all in one setup that sells for about $30. Its range is form about 5 to 20 psi if my memory serves me correctly. As far as paint goes, I try to stay away form the ‘craft’ type paint because the pigments are not ground as fine therefore requiring the user to add large amounts of a thinning medium, which in turn decreases the adhesion of the paint (also, the coarse pigments will cause the Teflon packing to prematurely wear – this can be the cause of very annoying leeks). Hobby paint is more expensive to by because it is more time consuming to grind the pigments finer. Almost all badger air brushes have the capability of interchanging the air cap, fluid cap and needle. The badger 150 is a very sturdy model, I have one myself. There are three setups available for it: fine, medium and coarse. The set you pick depends on the viscosity of the material you want to spray. I do not know if our IT guy has this page up but you can take a look at toolme.com That’s all that I can post for now, have to go to class. Matt
