Professional spray gun advice

🏺 Professional Paint Cup Solution

Perfect 70ml Size: Ideal for small projects and color changes without waste.
Chemical Resistant: Handles water-based, acrylic, and urethane paints safely.
Translucent Design: Monitor paint levels and quality during spray work.
Reusable Quality: Durable construction for multiple projects and cleaning cycles.

What nozzle size do I need for miniatures?

0.3mm is the versatile all-rounder for base coats and priming; 0.2mm suits fine detail work. Larger nozzles (0.5mm) are for terrain and big surfaces.

Do I need a compressor with a tank?

A tank smooths the airflow and reduces pulsing, giving more consistent results — worth it if you spray regularly, but tankless compressors work fine for occasional use.

How do I keep an airbrush working well?

Flush with airbrush cleaner between colours and strip-clean after each session. Most spraying problems are cleaning problems.
