  1. Update: I purchased the GX207 but did not get that air compressor. I went to Harbor Fright and got one for $75 (Campbelle Hausfeld) which has 2 gallons and works perfectly. The GX207 only has a 2cc cup and NO cap. I was unaware that there was no cap and that can lead to a messy situation. I do like the brush and it seems to work well for just practicing since I'm trying to get used to the air and then only adding small amounts of paint. As for using it to paint lures it should do just fine. I do plan to purchase an Iwata brush later but I figured I would just get one to mess around with to get used to it and then get something better. At least I will have a backup or can use it for fine lines or, since it only has a 2cc cup, use it for when only small amounts of one color is needed. 3.5 of 5 stars
  2. Your spot on! I have a compressor now that I use to pump up tires that has a 2 gal tank from Sears. It is a bit too loud to use in my house but would work. Currently I'm using a spare bed room turned into my little work area. I hope to one day build me a shop in my back yard to do all my hobbies in but that is way down the road right now. Since I'm just getting into painting my own lures and possibly a few fishing rods I was looking to spend a little money now just to see how it all goes. Later on (once I get a shop built) I would look at spending the money to get the really good stuff. Maybe by then I will be ready for the good high dollar tools?
  3. Hey Guys, Newbi to the Forum but I like what I see. Lots of really great information here. Anyway, I too have been researching this airbrush thing and have read a lot of good advise postings. I'm not just a newbi to the forum but also a newbi to airbrushing lures. After much thought I have decided to order the GX207 and 2222 compressor. See pics! I can get them both for $214.40 with shipping. I figure I would use the GX207 to practice a bit before spending a lot of money on a good Iwata (just incase things don't work out). Besides, the gx207 comes with three needles .2mm, .3mm and .5mm and nozzles. Your thoughts??? Site Link
