IwataRevolution CR Airbrush

I don't think it's possible to get a better airbrush for less money. It's very well built. Easy to use, disassemble, reassemble, clean, etc. It works great out of the box. My only recommendation to anyone getting into airbrush painting is to really pay attention to the brand of paint that you use. The quality of the paint is probably more critical than the brush itself.

Excellent airbrush, worked flawlessly. Was very easy to use and the clean up after I used it was very easy. I would recommend this airbrush for everyone that is involved in model building. In the past, I would spend money on the cheap $25 dollar airbrush and they would fall apart after 2 or 3 uses. This airbrush is made of high quality materials and is very durable. Worth every penny.

I have been using Iwata since highschool and I personally wont buy anything else they have been making spray guns for as long as I can remember and they never let me down. Dont buy anything else out there these are well made and last for ever when taken care of.

This is my third Iwata airbrush and I used it a day after I got it. I ran some Vallejo primer through it to prime my F-16 model. I cleaned the needle point a couple of times and it ran well. Then I cleaned the airbrush, but not the needle and it sprayed just as well as it did the first time I used it a day before. After that use, I cleaned the airbrush and pulled the needle out the front. There was paint on the needle that I cleaned off and oiled the needle and insured that the passages were all clear. Very easy to clean and work with. What is amazing about these Iwata airbrushes that it continues to flow even when the inner part of the needle has some paint on it. I am very impressed with this new unit and now have a great arsenal of tools to do my hobby work. The price is great as other Iwata airbrushes were more expensive. I recommend this unit.

Perfect as a main airbrush for scale models, it can do some level of detail work, but .5 needle airbrushes are best for broader spray patterns. I have this airbrush and also a Tamiya spray work spr fine with a .2 needle for the small details, both are built by Iwata and both are incredible.The only problem I have with this airbrush is the fact that unlike the Tamiya branded one it doesn't come with a trigger limiter adjustment on the handle, I can't tell you how incredibly important this feature is to me now after using it, now I wouldn't use an airbrush without it. The bright side however is that the handle is interchangeable between both airbrushes since both are made by Iwata. So if you have another airbrush made by Iwata with this feature, you may be able to swap handles.Although I highly recommend this airbrush especially if you can get it under $100, I would to find another Iwata made airbrush that has the adjustable trigger limiter on the handle if you can, or maybe you can get it after market or as a stand alone part? I know that some of if not all of the Tamiya airbrushes and Mr. Hobby airbrushes are made by Iwata. Iwata 100% makes top quality products and I'm very happy with them and will likely be using both of these airbrushes for many many years.

Easy to use , great results.

After using a Master G22 for several months and having problems with it, I bought the Iwata and very pleased with my purchase. It is not perfect for fine detail but with a little adjustment on air flow and a little trigger control practice, you can do great with scale models and other projects. It is easy to disassemble and clean plus there is a great tutorial on Youtube by Neonot (?) on this very airbrush.Easy to clean.Easy to control (a little practice needed)Smooth dual action.Well made.Backflushing is easy. Good choice for scale model builders.Update on 12/4/16OK, I have been using this Iwata for almost 3 years now and can say I am still very impressed with it. I may be at that point where I need to replace the needle and nozzle as they are showing signs of much use. It still works fine and I have found that I can use heavier paints such as Createx Pearls, Transparent and such at much higher PSI than we would normally push through an airbrush (45 PSI is common with some paints). It has held up well and learning how to properly clean and lube it was a Must. I still think it's the best airbrush for scale models and it's been a fun experience learning how to get the most out of it. Thank God for YouTube, right?Update after a few months.I still love this airbrush. It works as well today after much use as it did when new. I have learned to do some fine detail with it although it is not designed with that in mind. I believe this is a scale modelers best choice, especially for the price.

I recommend! Very good airbrush and fast ship. Thank you
