How to choose the right airbrush gun
Single-action vs. double-action airbrush
Single-action airbrush guns (like Revell's entry-level models) only control the airflow – ideal for beginners. Double-action models let you vary air and paint at the same time for finer control.
Compressor compatibility
The Aerotec PRO set is a complete package; if you own a compressor, check the connection type (typically 1/8" BSP) before buying a single gun.
Intended use
The Revell Silver is designed for plastic models with acrylic and enamel paints; the Aerotec PRO suits a wider range – primer, fine art and vehicle touch-up work.
Nozzle size
For fine detail you need 0.2–0.3 mm nozzles; for broader areas and primers, 0.4–0.5 mm is best. Check the nozzle diameter before ordering paint.

Important: Airbrush guns need a compressed air source. If you are not buying a complete set (such as the Aerotec PRO), make sure your compressor delivers a regulated pressure of 1–2 bar (15–30 PSI) and the right quick-release connector.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use the Revell airbrush with acrylic model paints?
Yes – the Revell Kunst-Airbrush Silver is designed for Revell's own acrylic and enamel paints. Thin acrylic paints to a milk-like consistency (typically 1:1 with airbrush thinner) for the best atomisation results.
Does the Aerotec PRO set include a compressor?
The Aerotec airbrush gun set PRO is a complete package. Check the exact product description for the full contents – some sets include a mini compressor, others only the gun, hose and accessories.
What care does an airbrush gun need?
Flush the airbrush after every session with the appropriate thinner (water for acrylic, solvent for enamel) until the spray runs clear. Take the needle and nozzle apart regularly for a more thorough clean.
