A sensible, compact compressor for hobbyists who want steady, controllable air for detailed painting tasks.

The clear coiled hose works with Tamiya Spray Work fittings; if your airbrush uses a different connection you may need a simple adapter to join them securely.
Thicker paints may require higher pressure or a larger nozzle. Start at the recommended continuous pressure and thin paint as necessary to avoid clogging or uneven spray.
Drain any residual moisture from the hose, tidy the power lead and store the unit in a dry place to prevent corrosion and keep it ready for the next session.
Yes, its simple controls and quiet operation make it friendly for newcomers while still offering the pressure control experienced modellers expect.
