Since all of my airbrushing work lately has been demanding of a lot of detail, I've decided to add another AB to my arsenal. I've always had my eye on the H&S infinity, but there is no doubt that there are a lot of Micron lovers and so I've also been looking at the CM-C Plus.
I currently have a Krome set up as my detail brush, and get some great results. I'm after the kind of brush that will just make getting those extreme details with a bit less stress. My Krome just gets finicky and within minutes, during the same painting session, it will go from perfect to nightmare without warning. Then I'll have to mess with my reductions to get it dialed in again. Not the end of the world, but I'd really like a brush that isn't so temperamental, set the Krome up with the .3 needle/nozzle, and just retire my old Paasche.
I was all set to pick up an Infinity, but lately, I've seen a lot of reviews saying that I may end up with a brush that is just as temperamental, or maybe even worse, than my Krome. So I'm hesitating now. I mean, if an Infinity isn't going to make my life easier, I might as well just pick up a second Krome, and keep one set up with the .2 and one with the .3
So, then I started investigating the Microns, and am now intrigued by the CM-C plus. Obviously there is a huge cost difference, but that isn't my main concern. I'm really just looking for some thoughts from the Micron and Infinity users, on how temperamental they find these different brushes.
And as I look at costs, do the Infinity users find that they are constantly replacing needles? I've seen a lot of reviews saying that the Infinity needles seem to be much softer than any other manufacturer and people are bending them just by picking off the tip dry. Go through enough of them, and that will eventually negate the cost difference between the two brushes.
Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks All.
