IwataMedea NEO TRN 2 Trigger Airbrush

I got this as a second brush for laying down primer and base coats because my detail brush takes forever on larger projects. I love it. Very comfortable to hold even with my somewhat large hands (I put my index finger over the top and wrap three fingers around and work the trigger with my middle finger). It provides a VERY clean spray that results in a very even coat with minimal effort.Do read the directions! This brush is designed to be used at 13 PSI. If you try to use it at 20 like a typical detail brush, you will be somewhat disappointed. It still performs reasonably well, but has a bit of overspray and a less even coat results.This is an unusual dual action design. It is a single trigger pull. The first 1/4 inch or so of trigger travel only activates the air. Then you feel a slight resistance and if you continue to pull the trigger, the needle will begin to retract for paint spray. I don't think I'd like this design for detail work, but for coverage, it's great. No fatigue trying to keep an awkward top trigger evenly pressed for longer periods.Disassembly is reasonable, and cleaning is no more complicated than a typical top feed brush.It comes with a small and large paint cup (1 and 2 oz respectively, I think...) and a siphon jar for the really big projects. I haven't used the siphon jar yet, but the paint cups work well, seal fully, and clean easily.Iwata is always good, but often to get great you have to shell out big money. This is an exception, IMO. It performs as well (for coverage at least) as brushes 2-3 times as expensive.

Great tool for taxidermy

Easy to use, great ergonomics.

Wow... the Iwata quality really shows through on this airbrush. This may be a lower end model, but don’t let that fool you. Lower end Iwata beats the best of most other brands. It is solid and the ergonomics are great. This is my first trigger model and I’m pretty hooked. With the 0.5mm tip, this is my new favorite for larger areas and primers. Easy to clean and the larger tip lets me use far less thinner.

This is amazing, using for it cerakote, this thing is recommended by them and much cheaper on Amazon, don’t cheep out on your spray guns. It’s worth every penny in spray quality and time saved. Must clean after every use.Would give it five stars but the dang orange paint on the handle is not acetone proof. Drips of acetone got on the handle between flushes and sticky orange paint went every where. Would recommend cleaning that paint off before use.

Bought a cheap airbrush and immediately regretted it. After a week of aggravation bought this. What a beautiful thing. Works like a charm, nice spray and consistent coverage. If I need another I would buy Iwata again without hesitation.

I've found this airbrush to be excellent for painting polycarbonate radio control car and truck bodies.

Very easy to use, ergonomic. I love the ability to choke down the airbrush to achieve different cone sizes.
