Introduction:
The Paasche® Vision Airbrush offers the ultimate in control and detail. It comes installed with Paasche’s smallest .2mm head which is paired
with a hand polished hardened stainless steel needle. In addition we have added the atomization control Valve which gives finger tip control
of you atomizing air. The newly designed sloped trigger improves comfort and grip.
TGX Specifications:
Dual action
Head size .2mm with hand polished stainless steel needle
Atomization control valve
.4 ounce gravity cup
Hair line to 1-1/2 inches
Options for the Vision:
.25mm head (TT-1 tip, TN-1 needle and TA-1 Aircap) - Great for jobs requiring the extremely fine detail
.38mm head (TT-2 tip, TN-2 Needle and TA-2 Aircap) - For slightly thicker paints where fine detail is still needed
.66mm head (TT-3 tip, TN-3 Needle and TA-3 Aircap) - Great for spraying metallics, pearlescent and thicker paints
.66mm fan aircap (TAF-3 Aircap, TN-3 Needle and TT-3 tip). Will give a 2-1/2 to 3 inch flat pattern for covering larger areas
Working Pressures:
Operating pressures 15-55 PSI; Maximum pressure 75 PSI. Fan aircap needs 20 PSI or more.
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 Setup:
The Airbrush is held in the same manner as a pen, with the index finger comfortably over the finger button.
1. Attach air hose to air supply and to airbrush. If, using a regulator set pressure between 20-55 PSI.
Airbrush Operation:
1. Press down on Finger Button to release air and pull back on button 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 Finger Button 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 Finger Button to release
required amount of color.
7. For stippling use the atomization control screw to reduce your atomizing air so the paint is not fully atomized. From there adjust paint
thickness and air pressure to achieve desired spray pattern.
