Getting Set Up
Make sure that you securely connect one end of an air hose to the air inlet of the airbrush and the other end of the
hose to a compressor. Remember to always wear a dust mask or respirator for solvent based paint, while airbrushing.
Holding and Triggering a Dual-Action Airbrush
Hold the airbrush like you would hold a pen with your index finger on the trigger for control. For a dual-action airbrush
press down on the trigger for air flow and while the trigger is pushed down pull back on it to release paint flow.
Fundamental Airbrushing Techniques for Best Results
When using your airbrush, spraying distance, application speed, airbrush angle and air pressure are the key principles
to consistently achieving the best airbrush spraying results. To get comfortable using the airbrush, practice spraying
with it at different distances and spray angles, while also adjusting your speed of application and air pressure.

Dual-action airbrushes are the most widely used style of airbrush,
as they allow the user to have superior control of the air flow, fluid
flow and spray pattern. The three main dual-action airbrush types
are Gravity Feed, Siphon Feed and Side Feed.
DUAL-ACTION refers to the triggering method of activating the
airbrush, as pressing down on the trigger releases the air flow and
drawing back on the trigger releases the paint flow. Since a dual-
action airbrush combines the two separate motions of the trigger
into a single control, it makes it much easier for the user to achieve
consistent fine detail line spraying results.

Cleaning the Airbrush
Before cleaning the airbrush always empty the excess paint first, and always clean the airbrush between color changes
and at the end of each painting session. Adding a new color to the airbrush without cleaning it will lead to color
contamination from the previous color. To prevent the airbrush from getting clogged, never allow paint to dry inside of
the airbrush. Refill the airbrush cup or bottle using the appropriate cleaning solution for the type of paint medium that
was used in the airbrush. Warm water works for most water-based mediums. Flush out the airbrush by back flushing
(plugging the tip of the brush while pulling the trigger back) and spray out until airbrush sprays clear.

Pistol Trigger Airbrush
Single-Action Airbrush
Single-Action External Mix Airbrush
Pistol trigger airbrushes give you the feel
of a spray gun trigger, while providing
you with the accurate spray control of
an airbrush. Some of our pistol trigger
airbrushes have a fixed dual-action
feature where pulling slightly back on
the trigger releases the air flow only,
then a further pull back of the trigger
releases the paint flow.
Single-action airbrushes are easy to
operate, as a simple push down on
the trigger activates both the air flow
and paint flow. This one step triggering
makes single-action airbrushes ideal for
beginners, although they do not provide
as much spray control as dual-action
airbrushes.
An external mix airbrush is called that
because the air and paint mix in front
of the needle. How much paint spray
comes out is controlled through a knob
located near the tip of the airbrush. A
single-action only requires a simple push
down on the trigger to activate both the
air flow and paint flow.
