Timbertech Airbrush Kit With Compressor AS-186K With Airbrush Gun, Air Hose, Cleaning brush & Paints for hobby, graphic and so on

I like to paint 40k and BattleTech minis, and living in Nebraska it is often too cold, too humid, and usually too windy to prime with a rattle can. To dip my toes into the airbrushing world, I wanted an all-in-one combo that wasn’t super expensive. This fit the bill well. The compressor has all the details I want: fairly quiet, quick to fill up, a separate tank plus a built in moisture trap. The hose is a good quality braid, and the little pipe cleaners will always be useful. I don’t care much about the included paint. The airbrush has a useful needle size for most mini painting needs, and although low cost, functions well and is easy to take apart and clean. It does feel a bit too light in the hand, which betrays it’s cheapness. My only concern about the airbrush itself is finding replacement needles. I’m clumsy; I WILL bend or break the needle at some point and will have to replace it. I’m not sure if replacement parts are available for the brush. Unfortunately, it might be a ‘one and done’. I’m ok with that though, since I mostly bought this package for everything EXCEPT the airbrush. I have since bought a Badger 105 Patriot as my workhorse airbrush. The Badger isn’t compatible with this air hose unless you buy one of Badger’s proprietary adaptors or quick connectors.

I purchased this compressor along with a Sparmax SP35 brush to use while painting miniatures. The compressor works well to provide a steady supply of air at a consistent pressure for painting. It is easy to empty and clean. It is also much quieter than I expected. One of my concerns was that the compressor would be too loud for me to paint while my kids slept but that hasn't been an issue at all. It's quieter than our dishwasher or microwave. The included brush is a nice bonus. I had purchased a Sparmax brush at the same time but I would actually recommend beginners start with the included brush. It seems to be pretty well made and is good enough for most work. This is a great way to get into airbrushing for miniatures, cake decoration or other uses.

Great compressor, got it for a single bed apartment and it's not too loud. Love that it has a tank so it's not always running. Very well packaged. Included airbrush has been doing a great job while painting minis. Just keep it clean. Wish I had kept the included paints to practice. You'll also probably want to adjust the pressure at the beginning. It took me a time to realize but you have to pull up on the adjustment knob to change it. Overall, very very happy

The air brush is good, and assuming you get a good unit, so it The compressor. I unfortunately got one with a minor leak. But overall was very solid. I used it for basecoqting and priming warhammer minis.

the compressor works great. The airbrush is a bit cheap and a little wonky, but it does work just fine. I ended up upgrading to a $40 airbrush from Amazon, but the one that came with it was perfectly fine for learning the basics. If anything it taught me the importance of trigger control, and proper cleaning.

Works well when cold but overheats quickly. I quickly primed 5 minis and that was all it took. Does not overheat while i'm painting as I take more breaks to swap colors and run it at a lower PSI. I run a fan next to it while i prime and give it plenty of space to cool. After a few days of operating it like this I believe it was killed by it's own heat. I Only let it get too hot to the point it shut down 3 times. It doesn't take much to get it too hot.

I really can't say enough good about this compressor. I've owned it for over 2 years now and it's my go to rig. I use it all the time. I've added a small fan that I run while I'm using (which I advise you do with any non fan cooled compressor) it to keep it cool and I never worry about it working for me. I bought the extra warranty for $20 (I was pretty nervous when I first bought it). The first package they sent I had a defective Airbrush that comes with it and Amazon sent me the entire order as a replacement. I was blown away, now I had two complete packages. I promptly put the Airbrush away and hooked up the 1st compressor and I've been using it ever since. Another surprise came the other day. I wanted to shoot some solvent based oil (Tru-Oil) to test it through an airbrush but I didn't want to do it through my Iwata or my Creos. So I pulled out the airbrush from this pack and tried my experiment and it worked great 👍. In fact I did a YouTube video of my test with it. So in conclusion, if your looking for an inexpensive compressor and a decent airbrush, just buy this one. Throw in the extra $20 warranty and have fun, I know I have.

I bought this to attempt some airbrushing on my 3D prints. I now use it some to paint, but I also use it to prime some of my miniatures. It works great for basic stuff. Might be a little loud, but I have nothing else to compare it to.

Es de muy buena calidad, soy restaurador de juguete y utilizo el aerografo para retocar algunas superficies, incluso pinto algunas de ellas y me ha funcionado de maravilla

El aerógrafo que trae es ideal para iniciar y practicar conceptos básicos de la técnica. El motor es muy silencioso y mantiene una presión constante.

No trae instructivo pero bien tienes que investigar su funcionamiento y eso es algo tardado
