Just a few seconds in and I already got the information I was looking for. Fantastic!

[SuperSeel]

I freaking love this series! Such digestible short videos! Thanks much!

[drgrimlockisking]

Gotta say, I could listen to you talk all day. Love your voice and I love how you break down everything into easily understandable videos. A lot of things I’ve struggled to really understand the intricacies of over the years you’ve made so much clearer.

Thank you for answering a simple question about needle sizes & their purpose.

Is using two Teflon washers the recommended way to remove the trigger lag on an infinity produced prior to the Giraldez infinity? Is there a possible replacement part to be made available by H&S to do this in the future? Thanks!

also don’t forget that bigger nozzles don’t clog that often if you use a lot of glitter and particles

Another great and very important explanation for beginners and pros alike. Many errors and confusions are circulating in the communities and finally an expert and manufacturer explains in an understandable way what the technology really does. No opinion, no home brew only facts for the high art of engineering.
Thank you for this video series which makes many ineffective and expensive airbrush courses for beginners unnecessary and saves many from frustration.
Grateful!

Dude!!! I've passed by this video so many times looking for a good explanation of needle size etc and what they do. I e watched other videos of people over complicating it. And now I just finally watched this video and you explained everything I needed to know in a way that made me understand in about 15 seconds 😂. Thanks so much. I will be watching more of your videos in the future. And for anyone who hasn't done yet. WATCH THIS SHIZZLE NOW!👍

Another great informative video--keep 'em coming! Thanks!

[dracosummoner]

Thanks so much for this. I've been considering getting a bigger set of nozzles, etc. since my small one tends to clog frequently, and this is good info for what else to look for.

[DingoPaints]

For me, that was the best info yet. Changed my thinking. Thank you

About to start airbrushing for my first time and will be doing a thicker glow paint that is amazing.. i know it needs to be thinned and i have that sorted but my question is, what tip would be best for this .5 or .3 .... or can be done with both easily if thinned properly and kept well stirred as i shoot the action figures? From what i understand the glow particles are a little bigger than normal paint, , thank you to anyone for answering this.

I got a bit of a problem...I have an old paasche VL and the needles have rings to know what size they are but my nozzles got mixed up and have no markings, the (tip has a number) but I put my nozzles side by side and there are no rings, no numbers nada🤷‍♂️
I'm trying to use my number 3 needle but don't know if I have a number 3 or number one nozzle..will I ruin the nozzle if I guess wrong? Or would it just spray better if I guess right 😬

[freelancerblitz]

what size is best for priming miniatures?

[tanyaboeckmans]

I have 2.5mm needles and can't find a nozzle. Can I use a 3mm nozzle? Thank you
