Can be used for any airbrushing (models, latex masks, makeup, etc) not just cake decorating? Or are there specific differences in airbrushes?

Yes, I use it for airbrush tattoos and spray tanning. You just need to have different guns.

You'll need a compressor and water trap also. If you are new to airbrushing I would suggest this setup found here: http://www.amazon.com/Master-Airbrush-Performance-Multi-purpose-Compressor-The/dp/B001TO578Q/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1404153934&sr=8-2&keywords=airbrush+compressor

While you can use a regular compressor, that is not an ideal setup. First of all, most regulators on bigger compressors do not have the capability to make the smaller adjustments necessary for airbrushing. Secondly, you will absolutely need a moisture trap. Thirdly, a regular compressor is going to be a lot noisier ad present location problems. And finally, adapting from airbrush fittings to a standard compressor fitting would be a challenge. You will be better off to buy a compressor built specifically for airbrushing.

This is a .4mm tip and should be able to handle any airbrush formula. Just don't mix the formulas-you'll end up with a cement like residue in your gun. The stylus Temptu sells for their silicone formula is a 3.5mm.

Absolutely! This airbrush is by far my favorite. If you're going to buy this amazing airbrush just make sure you also purchase a good compressor. I would also advise watching some videos on YouTube to really get the theory and techniques down. It takes significant time and practice, like any other kind of painting.

Hi Tarie,I clean my airbrush every time after been used and I spend less than 5 minutes with warm water. But I am having a hard time to use this airbrush, I can not find the right make up, and the right way to use. I was practicing with water, and with some makeup, but did not work, I think that I was not a good idea to buy this airbrush. I do not know to use it.

Your best bet would probably be a good regulator for airbrushing. Do a search for Badger regulators. And make sure you get a good moisture trap to put in there also. I have run a Badger regulator inline with my stock regulator and had no problems keeping a steady 3 PSI output. Should work for you also.

i believe, but im not 100% certain, that you can combine this Liquitex soft body paint with Liquitex Airbrush Medium to use in an airbrush.

If you are air brushing the cake, it should be fine. Your limitation is the size of cake unless you purchase two. The air flow through the booth will take just about any over spray out of the air. Hope this helps!

You must use airbrush make up. Try shopping at airbrushmakeup.com ...I love their stuff.

I do not recommend it. If you want something for cloth you need to purchase a special paint you can thin to spray from the airbrush. These are strictly food grade coloring so the colors will look very different on cloth and may run and wash out when wet.

I personally prefer the Wilton fondant for modeling- it's not so sticky and dries harder. It also doesn't get the wrinkly 'skin' on it. Definitely dust the mold with cornstarch so it doesn't stick and mix in a little tylose powder if you want it to set even harder. Good luck!

Yes, you can. All connections are pretty much universal. I have used two different air brushes with this machine. BTW, for the money I found this machine excellent for the non pro artist and hobbyist. Hope this helps.

Hmmmm....I am not exactly sure why someone would say that a paint brush cannot be used, unless they were perhaps talking about a specific application. You should be able to use a brush with no problems really. In fact, there are artists that use these to paint on wood, canvas, and other media that is even beyond my understanding. I have even heard of others mixing these with water color paints to create numerous paint technique variations as well as unique finishes. I really apologize for any confusion, but I am sure someone may have been referring to a more specific topic.Hope that helps out....Keda Dyes IncThank you for your interest Hmmmm....I am not exactly sure why someone would say that a paint brush cannot be used, unless they were perhaps talking about a specific application.

Since my purchase a year ago I have successfully used Model Master Enamel, Tamiya Acrylic paint, and Model Master Lacquer when painting small 1/72 scale plastic aircraft models. Thinning to the correct viscosity proved easier to learn than I had thought. This is my first airbrush. I am very diligent in keeping the system clean. I flush with thinner/solvent very quickly after use. If the brush must be more thoroughly cleaned, taking it completely apart can be a bother.

I am not sure what make up you have, but the only make up that am for sure you can use is make up made for an airbrush. Most other make up is to thick and heavy.
