What's an Airbrush?

The airbrush is a small, highly actual spray gun for applying paint. It was invented in 1879 by Abner Peeler, in Iowa, USA. This first airbrush used a hand-operated compressor, and the inventor patented it "for the painting of watercolors and other inventive purposes". However this first device was rather crude and it took some years of further development before a practical device was developed, which was marketed by Freedom Walkup. The most modern airbrushes today are ironically made in Japan, one of the preferred brands is Iwata. Paintjobs. You may always be making an attempt to find that airbrush that works that small bit better, those stencils that work just a bit simply, that paint that lasts just that small bit longer. A business with quality products and good costs. It also helps if they are actively coming up with new stencil designs and new releases all the time. Any way, if you employ a tiny care, ask plenty of questions, and ensure you are getting what you need, you should be fine, and you will be well on your way to a fun and delightful business. An airbrush works by passing a stream of fast moving air thru a venturi, which creates a local decrease in pressure ( suction ) that permits paint to be pushed up from a reservoir at ordinary atmospheric pressure. This highly fine degree of control is what permits an artist to form such smooth mixing effects using the device.
