Larry,
I am not familiar with Nebulizer misting machines however, I am familiar
with compressors. My only suggestion to you would be to buy a compressor
with a holding tank. The compressor will keep the tank filled and only turn
on when it needs to refill. The advantage comes in that the air is a
constant source rather than the pulsating air that comes from the smaller
hobby compressors on the market.
With the tank, you can adjust the pressure coming out of the brush as needed
for solvent or acrylic paints. Also, this adjustable pressure will also
help you in weathering.
You can pick up a small compressor with between a 1 and 2.5 gal tank for
under $150.00. Campbell Hausfeld (http://www.campbellhausfeld.com/) has a
line of "Quiet Air" compressors that you can find online at www.mysimon.com
for as low as $109.00 and then add shipping.
Hope this information was helpful.
Tom

Subject: [BRHSlist] Airbrushing compressers
This is a little of subject, but I could not think of any better places to
ask,
Could somebody tell me, I have heard that a Nebulizer misting machine will
work for use with airbrushes.
Do they work and will it require a regulator with it.
I'm not going to do any detail paint jobs, just want to use it for
weathering, loco's and cars, etc etc.
Any help would be appreciated,
Also these kits you see on ebay with the compressors and airbrush kit's,
selling around 120.00 or so, are these any good?
does the water trap with the pressure gauge on them, are these a regulator
type?
Thanks Gang,
Larry
