Nice one I look forward to hearing what you think of it.
Cheers Mel
yep dude the micro rocks...i cant even use my high line series after painting with the micron for months
I sprayed with it for a few hours tonight side by side with my Infinity .15.
My conclusion is that the Micron is a very efficient and consistent brush. The Infinity can do pretty much everything the Micron can, but the Micron is just easier to work with. Reductions have to be more accurate with the Infinity, but once they are right, it sprays great. The Micron definitely performs better at very low PSI. ETAC EFX at about 5-7psi straight out of the bottle, where the Infinity had to be around 10-12. The consensus is that even though the Micron is so expensive, performance wise it is completely worth it. The Infinity is still a great gun, just more picky.
Hi Jagardn,
I'm chuffed for you I had the same result between my Sotar 20/20 0.21mm and my Olympos Micron 0.23mm although the Micron did also produce slightly better detail, the main difference is the Sotar is much more finicky with paint than the Olympos Micron. Mind you with the Amazon Sotar price tag makes it a fantastic value detail airbrush and like you said with the Infinity, once you get the paint reduction right is sprays great. Having said that I am extremely happy with my Olympos Micron, it makes airbrushing a pleasure
Which needle/nozzle set up did you get for your CM-C+ the 0.18 or 0.23mm?
Cheers Mel

Oh man Jeff you got me drooling over here now ! Told my wife to give me the rest of my xmas money from the checks we got so I can buy my micron STAT! She said you might want to hold off, ummm I don't think so ! I think ive heard enough reviews now that I need to take part and judge it for myself. Glad you like it.

Lol! That's prob why she doesn't want me to get one, I'm already practically living out there now ! When I do order one I don't think I have enough for an extra head assembly. Will just be able to buy an extra needle and a hose and hope the nozzle lasts for awhile without any accidents.

I know you told me I would love it Herb but I'm a stickler with my money ! I just absolutely love my hp-c+'s and CH's that I could get 3 more for price of the micron. Plus I'm in dire need of replacing my cs' s but I'm hopeful that on my day off tomorrow I'll be placing an order for a cm-c+!
