I've got the Infinity Solo and I agree with those who say that H&S make the best airbrushes in the world. Amazingly, they are priced at about half of what my Iwata Microns cost. I'm converting my Infinity to 0.2mm and plan on picking up a Grafo for 0.15. The only caution is, nobody makes a nozzle reamer smaller than 0.2, so if you start to get any indication of a clog in that tiny tip, make sure you don't block the opening, or you'll never get it out. Try using a compressed air duster to blow it out backwards through the tip.
Спасибо за информативный обзор!!! Об этом аэрографе очень мало информации, хотя понятно, что harder and steenbeck не может быть плохим. Благодаря вашему обзору решился на приобретение. Еще раз спасибо!
hey , i am confused in between infinity and grafo , since you reviewd both of them ,can you please share your thoughts . I really like the trigger system in grafo , but on the other hand infinity got the versitility. I have other brushes for non detail work eg, TRN2 0.5MM, And sparmax gp850 .
Welcome to the channel! I'd say the grafo is more for detail work and illustrators because of the very small cup (clear line of site down the length of the brush), but if you are already confident with your trigger control, the infinity is also great for fine detail and excellent all around.
I'm thinking of buying a Hansa by H&S, which has a similar control mechanism. Is there any disadvantage to this system? I used a dinair brush which operated the same and really felt that it was a lot easier on the hands! Thanks for the detailed review
Some people like to blast just air to help with the drying process, and you can't do that with this type of trigger. Also if your finger is sensitive enough you will notice an increase in resistance when pulling back once it starts to engage the needle, whereas with a traditional double action the resistance is constant when pulling back. Just some things you need to get used to. Note that the Hansa nozzle is different from H&S.
@@chrisjhart with a very light touch and with a thicker paint mix you might be able to, but i wouldn't risk it as you might accidentally spray where you don't want to. The Colani has a longer air-only pull and a more pronounced increase in trigger resistance when it starts to move the needle, so you may want to look into that, otherwise just go with H&S traditional design for full control over air/paint flow.
@@OtakuonabudgetBlogspotPage I'll look into the colani, thanks. I saw a video where someone had taken the housing out of the trigger of an iwata so the air was always on, so in theory I could do the same with a h&s and control the pressure with a mac valve. Do you know if that could be done with h&s? Sorry for all the questions!
@@chrisjhart I've never taken apart the air valve so i can't say if you can do this with H&S, but if you want the air always on you might as well be using a single action airbrush. Look through my reviews for the sparmax, which comes with a single action valve stem you can swap in for that function.
King Fox "budget" is a subjective term, but if you're looking for an aibrush below $100 the Patriot or Talon are both good choices. Just don't expect them to perform like an H&S or Iwata, or have the same build quality at that price point.
@@Steinstra-vj7wl So what is "fixed double action"? A single action-you're making a single action to have the gun spraying. They can call it however they like.
THE best airbrush money can buy. But the guy using it here doesn't know how to use it. Grafo's fixed double action technology is SO MUCH easier to controle than a double action airbrush that i boggles the mind why this is not the most popular airbrush in this world.

Is there a money back guarantee?

@@OtakuonabudgetBlogspotPage thank you very much for your reply .. i am thinking to go with infinity
i have a very old grafo , i think one of the first made

@@OtakuonabudgetBlogspotPage Thanks for the quick reply. So, it will not just spray air at all? That's a bit of a bummer

awesome video !!
I have two of these 0.15 & a 0.4
whats the best budget airbrush you've reviewed?

The best airbrush in the world really is good quality
This is "single action airbrush" .
Nope: Grafo and Hansa are fixed double action airbrushes.

Yes the harder and steenbeck is the best airbrush in the world
