Review on OPHIR Portable Airbrush Compressor Adjustable by Barbara Simmons

It took me a little longer to write this review. In fact, I tried to get to know the gear better and not be unfair. It's very well built and quite beautiful, but I've had a lot of problems working with this airbrush. I spent more time cleaning it than painting it. I started with the Testors color set. Such paint must be diluted with a special thinner and applied with an airbrush every two minutes. Okay, that's paint color, so I continued. After that I had a complete mess in my room (disassembling and cleaning the airbrush), I exchanged it for a set of Vallejo air paints. This type of paint is easier to work with than enamel paint as it is acrylic paint designed to be airbrushed. Unfortunately bad things happen all the time. So it works, but the main problem is that you spend more time disassembling (needle removal, tip, cleaning, etc.), cleaning and reassembling than painting. I paid $50 for the airbrush and compressor kit while the Iwata airbrush is almost $100. So you get what you pay for. I would not buy again.
