💬 Straight Answers to Common Questions
🤔 Is this good for beginners?
Yes. It has intuitive dual-action control, comfortable ergonomics, and is forgiving to learn on. The 0.3mm nozzle is a good middle ground - not too fine to clog easily, not too large to lack detail.
🎨 What paints actually work?
Most paints when thinned properly. Acrylics like Vallejo, Citadel work well. Lacquers and enamels too, but clean thoroughly after use. Thin to milk consistency - too thick will clog, too thin will run.
📏 How fine can I paint details?
Realistic expectation: 0.5-1mm lines for most users. With practice and perfect paint consistency, some achieve 0.3mm. For ultra-fine work (0.2mm), you'd need a smaller nozzle airbrush.
🧼 Is cleaning actually easy?
Yes, compared to other airbrushes. The needle pulls out, nozzle unscrews. Flush with cleaner between colors, do a full strip-down weekly if used regularly. Takes 5-10 minutes for basic cleaning.
🔌 Will it fit my compressor?
Probably. It has standard 1/8" BSP thread that fits most airbrush hoses. If your compressor has different threading, adapters are available for £2-5.
⚖️ Is 110g too heavy?
Most people find it comfortable. It's slightly front-heavy due to the cup, but you adapt quickly. For 4+ hour sessions, some prefer lighter models, but for typical 1-2 hour use it's fine.
🎲 Can I paint Warhammer figures with this?
Yes, it's popular for miniature painting. Good for base coats, highlights, and medium details. For tiny details like eyes or small markings, you might still need a brush, but it handles 90% of miniature work well.
🔧 What about spare parts?
Available and reasonably priced. Needles cost around £15, nozzles £20, seals £5. With normal use, needles last 6-12 months, nozzles 1-2 years. We stock common parts.
🛡️ 10-Year Warranty Details
Covers manufacturing defects and material faults for 10 years in the UK. Does not cover wear parts (needles, nozzles, seals) or damage from improper use/cleaning. Iwata honors this warranty through authorized dealers.
This is significantly longer than most airbrush warranties (typically 1-2 years), reflecting the build quality.
