i used to have that exact same harbor freight airbrush and it is shit its very poorly made and very temperamental so many things go wrong with it and auto air is horrible paint as well it always clogs up the airbrush and tip dry always happens u should try kustom shops airbrush paint its so much smoother and it comes pre mixed however auto air is the best water borne paint i will give them that
@13timboe Yeah, I don't have that HF brush anymore. I have a DAGR, and 8 brushes from Badger/Thayer&Chandler. I can't say I agree with you on the auto air though. I prefer it. Their newer stuff and the wicked line from createx that just came out is killer. I would like to try some Kustom Shop, but it's a urethane, and not conducive to spraying in my shop in the basement.
@13timboe Harbor Freight is NOT the 'exact' airbrush - it's a piece of shit. It's not machined the same way, nor is the design the same way (hence copyright) I use the Dagr and after using Badger forever and swearing by them, I'm a convert.
Auto Air is great paint once you learn how to use it. I don't have tip dry or cloggin problems except with white and some blues.
@MrGimpyLoser Nah, compared to the DAGR, the renegades are feathers. I just got a bunch of Badger brushes to try out. I'll have reviews up as soon as I can.
@sgtm1775 I have a Velocity (Rengade series, Gravity Feed). It's a nice gun, the atomization is unmatched, however, I find it to fidgity for my tastes. After using it and the Dagr, with the same kinds of paint (Auto Air, Createx and Kustom Kolor) i prefer the Dagr.
Ive been using a Master gravity feed airbrush for about four years, a friend of mine gave me a Dagr and this is an awesome tool. I still use my Master for fine detail because it has a needle half the size of the Dagr.
@trplxl2 I didn't get to keep the one in the video, but I did get one a couple of months later. Check out the video I have up opening it Christmas morning.
@uHHwh4t Yeah, the DAGR is awesome. You'll love it.

@PRACERZ 40 psi. For pretty much everything except t-shirts. I'll bump it up to 50-60 psi then.

adrian120708 1 year ago
@adrian120708 The Harbor Freight brush is ok for starters. I mainly use my Dagr now, but I do keep my HF brush as a backup for secondary colors.
