Well now its the afternoon.Thank-you for the paint thinning ratios,
I unpacked my Badger 150 or 200 after being stored for about 10 yrs.Its in rough shape so my question now is:
What air brush to buy–I’ll probably only be using it for structures
Where to buy at the best price
Also,I’d like to buy one that I can get parts for
Thanks again,
Vince
I’m surprised you don’t have a thousand answers already but, I like the Paasche I received. There are a number of different models to choose from and the parts are available direct online and shipped from Chicago to the east coast service was good and took about three days from the day of the order. I have a the dual action and it has worked well. Hope that helps. J.R.
I have a Paasche VL that is great! But I rarely use it. For most of the paintwork I do I use a single action, external mix Badger 250.
Badger and Paasche both have readily available spare parts.

Don’t give up on the Badger just yet.
My 30 year old 200 had been stored for well over 10 years when I found it during our move to Florida. Some polish work and a new valve & bottle cover from my LHS restored it to full function.

I have a Paache H single action I’ve had for 25 years. Works great.
