Hi....sorry for jumping in on this but ive just been looking at the bambi 15 and was thinking of buying one.Wow, i wish i'd seen this b4 i got mine. I paid£350 for a bambi " silent " compressor.
Its great and works well as its got quite a large tank so it doesnt start up every 10 minutes.
But that one there is a bargain.
I have the bambi 15v. The pressure gauge goes up to 200 psi. Obviously wouldnt run it at the max though.Hi....sorry for jumping in on this but ive just been looking at the bambi 15 and was thinking of buying one.
The thing is, I wanted to run my iwata hvlp mini 0.6 through it, just for candy and autobourne sealers, as well as, my airbrush....Will the bambi have enough guts to run a 0.6 gun bearing in mind, I won't be doing anything bigger than a motorbike tank ???? TIA
You need to check the CFM of the gun and compare it to the specs on the compressor. If the gun is higher you will run out of air too quick which will affect your spraying.Hi....sorry for jumping in on this but ive just been looking at the bambi 15 and was thinking of buying one.

Its an Iwata lph 50..... I took this Q&A off the Iwata siteYou need to check the CFM of the gun and compare it to the specs on the compressor. If the gun is higher you will run out of air too quick which will affect your spraying.

With the above in mind, can anyone recommend a mini spray gun with adjustable spray pattern around .6 or .8 nozzle that's compatable with the bambi .5 or 1 hp compressor ?Its an Iwata lph 50..... I took this Q&A off the Iwata site
Q: What is the minimum compressor that would run the LHP50?
A: The LPH50 requires only 1.8cfm at 13psi therefore, a 1hp compressor would be the minimum to run the LPH50.
Thanks for the advice ;-)

I'm looking at this make because its easy available and seems very quiet.
I do have a large 200ltr shop compressor, but its away from the building where I airbrush
My HVLP LPH 101 is too much for my 2 hp sears compressor. I was thinking of trying to trade it for a Custom Micron SB V2 if anyone is thinking of getting rid of one.There is an Iwata HP-G that is .74 to 1.3 cfm
It stands for Cubic Feet per Minute. Which is the volume of air consumed from the tank. The larger the nozzle the more are is used even though you are spraying at 10 psi. Think of a car tire compared to a bicycle tire. The car tire has a lot more volume of air in it but the pressure is only 32psi. and a bike tire is smaller has less volume of air in it but is at 72psi. Hope that helpsWhat dies cfm stand for airbrush dreams if you dont mind me asking
Thanks very much for the help and the chart......View attachment 47534
Iwata "Lph" is as low cfm as you can get compared to any other brand gun. The small nozzle RG-3 is a round spray pattern..
