AOW answers

The Airbrush that I use and sell is the Grex Genesis-XS, sidecup brush with a .3 mm nozzle. It is a great all around brush and comparable to the Iwata HP-CH. I sell the XS for $149, the addition of the G-MAC (micro air control valve) for $30 makes it the same quality and better value than the HP-CH at $210. If you have more than one brush (I like to use two-one for dark paint and one for light paint) then the G-MAC is interchangeable, making the XS an even better value. I also own an HP-CH and can honestly say that the XS is comparable.

The AOW colorkit:

More important than the brush is the paint. There are many brushes on the market that will get the job done but only one paint brand that is designed for wood, E’tac. I sell a complete color line. The alternatives on the market (Golden, Media, Createx and others) were designed for Illustrators. They are good paints but not for wood. E’tac has the highest color fast rating and best resiliency of all available products. It’s been around for more than 30 years so it’s proven. The paint comes in one ounce bottles for $4.98 each.

Color Kit: 12 colors (1-Oz bottles) full mix potential, plus Extend-Air, Condition-Air 8×10 Color Wheel, 10mixing cups/caps, Mixstixs, Bowlbrush, Tipbrush, Eraser, Knife , $120 value             Retail $99.

E’tac combines the best of both worlds: The colors spray as smooth and silky as solvent based urethanes. Yet they are water based, non toxic and they conform to ASTM D 4236 compliance standards. Contrary to other water based paints, there is virtually no tip dry and a much smoother flow. These unique properties ensure maximum performance and superior control, also with fine detail airbrushes with small nozzle openings.

E’tac pigments are the finest of quality with regards to purity, strength and performance. All colors are extremely light fast which makes them ideal for  application on wood art
