Aerograf FA-180XK 0,2mm 0,3mm 0,5mm

The FA-180XK airbrush with three nozzles

A double-action airbrush with gravity feed of the paint, on which the nozzles can be changed. There are three diameters in the package: 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 mm. One airbrush therefore covers the whole range of work from the finest lines to priming large areas, without your having to buy several of them.

Use

• The 0.2 mm nozzle for fine lines, transitions and painting figures.
• The 0.3 mm nozzle for ordinary work, camouflage and modulation.
• The 0.5 mm nozzle for primer, clear coat and thicker materials.
• Work with filler primers and putties in a thin layer.

Work tips

When you change the nozzle, change the matching needle and air cap as well, otherwise the geometry will not fit and the airbrush will spit. The smaller the nozzle, the more the paint has to be thinned and the lower the pressure needed. After each color, flush the cup and the channel with the matching thinner. Clean the needle by drawing it backwards, not forwards through the nozzle. Put the small nozzle parts in a dish so that they are not lost.

Who it is for

• Modelers who want one airbrush for everything.
• Beginners who are still finding out which diameter suits them.
• Those who alternate fine work with painting large areas.

Do not swap the nozzles needlessly often. Every dismantling and reassembly is an opportunity to damage the needle or to create a leak, so it pays to plan the work so that one diameter serves for a whole working session.

When spraying, work in an extracted area and protect your airways.
