GENERAL OPERATION
1. Depress the main lever (#7) to start airflow.
2. Position the airbrush close to the surface, between
1/16 and 1/2 inch.
3. Pull the main lever back slightly to start paint flow.
• A longer distance to the paint surface produces wider lines.
• A shorter distance to the paint surface produces
narrower lines.
• Increased air pressure increases spray width.
• Decreased air pressure decreases spray width.
• The smallest lines are determined by skill and practice.
Wide-Lines and Blending
1. Depress the main lever (#7).
2. Position the airbrush from 1/2 to 6 inches away from the surface.
3. Pull the main lever back much further to release more paint to
cover the bigger area.
• A longer distance to the paint surface produces wider lines.
• A shorter distance to the paint surface produces
narrower lines.
• Increased air pressure increases spray width.
• Decreased air pressure decreases spray width.
• The maximum usable line width is approximately 2 inches.
Stippling
Iwata airbrushes are designed to produce a wide range
of stippling textures.
1. Unscrew the needle cap (#1).
2. Unscrew the nozzle cap (#2).
3. Adjust the air pressure between 8 and 60 psi.
• Low air pressure creates coarse stipples.
• High air pressure provides fine stipple effects.
• Paint viscosity also effects stippling texture.
Air Pressure
Working pressures generally vary between 8 and 60 psi,
depending on the type of surface, the desired spray texture,
and the paint’s viscosity.
Start spraying with 15 psi. If the spray is too grainy adjust the
pressure up until the desired spray consistency is reached.
• Different colors will behave differently.
• Different paint lines will behave differently.
• Spray thick paint with greater pressure.
• Spray thin paint with less pressure.
• Spray large paint amounts with greater pressure.
• Spray small paint amounts with less pressure.
WARNING: Do not exceed 98psi.
