HO all the way!
I am a reclaimed modeller and am starting out again. I bought a cheapo airbrush on ebay, a Cal-Hawk and it didnt come with any instructions. Im wondering if anyone knows anything about these and also how much pressure do I need to run it effectively? Do I need a compressor or could I use a tire on a rim with say 50 PSI? Or could I hook it directly to a 120 PSI compressor? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, CM
 
Don't hook it directly to the 120psi source.

I use 15-35psi, depending on the airbrush and material being sprayed.

I use this:

Regulator, filter/water trap, and quick connects for the airbrushes and air hose from the compressor.
