INTRODUCTION:
Prime Characteristics of the
Paasche® VSR90#1
Airbrush include the ability to spray fluids requiring
gravity feed as well as make quick color changes with the two (2) different size color cups supplied with each set. This unique
two in one design allows the user choice of cup size while using only one shell. These color cups enable the user to swivel
each cup right, left or in alignment with the shell to allow an unobstructed view of their efforts. The Double Action, Internal mix
feature permits flexibility in regulation of color and air without work stoppage. The two different size Multipleheads, Tips and
Needles are quickly interchangeable to allow greater diversity in materials and coverage.
PTFE Packings.
Head Sizes - Patterns - Fluid Thickness:
Size 1
- Tip size .010 inches or .25mm
Size 2
-Tip size .026 inches or .66mm
- Used for fine detail. Pencil Line to 1'' patterns
- Less detail than the size 1 head. 1/32'' to 1-1/2'' patterns
- Paint must be thinned further than 2 head
- Can spray slightly thicker paint than size 1 head
Working Pressures:
• Operating pressures 20-55 PSI; Maximum pressure 75 PSI
• 20-30 PSI is best for detail spraying w/ properly thinned paint
• Use the higher pressures for thicker material where fine detail is not critical or thin the paint to allow lower pressures.
Equipment Set-up:
The Airbrush is held in the same manner as a pen, with the index finger comfortably over the Trigger.
1. Attach airhose to air supply and to airbrush. If regulator set pressure between 20 -30 PSI.
2. Attach the color cup to the color socket of the airbrush.
3. Remove Head Protecting Cap #1.
Airbrush Operation:
1. Press down on Trigger to release air and pull back on Trigger to control quantity of color.
2. To spray a fine line without heavy ends, start moving the airbrush without release of color. Then start the color at the
beginning of line and stop the color at the end, but continue the motion of the airbrush after the color has stopped.
3. Practice this movement until you can spray a fine line or a broad pattern without heavy build up at the beginning or
end of your strokes.
4. Speed of movement controls density of color and fading effects at beginning and end of strokes.
5. For detail, hold the airbrush very close to the surface push down for air and pull back very slowly on the Trigger to
release a small amount of paint.
6. For background work and broad effects, hold the airbrush away from the work surface and pull back on Trigger to
release required amount of color.
7. For Stippling remove the aircap, push down on the Trigger and pump the Trigger forward and back. Adjust the air
pressure between 15 and 50 PSI for desired stipple effect.
