Hi,
I am going to do some work on my decoys this year. I would like to use an airbrush as well as regular decoys. What minimum features does one looking for on this type of airbrush? Thank you for your inputs

I have airbrushing quite a few full bodies and floaters now. I got some advice from this forum a few years ago. What I use is a paasche h airbrush set that is easy to use and clean. It can be used with any thinned paint is what I mainly use since with the double action you can adjust the paint quite easily after some practice but the #1 works great for any small detail you would like. I also originally bought the dvd and paint kit from flockfooler and it worked good. I won't buy his kit again though as you recieve the same amount of all colors but some you use a lot more than others. He also has two colors that are UV which cost more and I am not convinced on the UV paint yet.
