Description:
|
.18mm fluid nozzle opening
Gravity feed cup
The Custom Micron Series is for the elite professional who demands precise and accurate control of very detailed spraying. These airbrushes are the "best of the best", hand tested and adjusted by the world's leading airbrush technicians. Special machining processes along with the meticulous hand-fitting of the parts creates an airbrush with superb atomization and incredible control of very detailed spraying. By removing the nozzle cap, these airbrushes will spray an entire range of stipple effects, from very fine to coarse textures. The Custom Micron airbrushes feature a special "head system" which has all of its parts matched and tested together as a set. The head system is tested, adjusted, and retested until the spray charateristics are as perfect as an airbrush can be. Each head system is sold only as a set and is the key to the superb performance of a Custom Micron Airbrush. Maintenance and reliability is at its absolute highest level since spare head systems can be purchased to ensure the Custom Micron will always spray to its maximum potential.
Designed for the most demanding professional, the CM-B is considered one of the finest airbrushes in the world. The Iwata Custom Micron matched head system insures superior atomization. It features a 1/16oz. (1.8ml) gravity feed fluid cup, which is small enough to see over the top of while working. The highly polished stainless steel needle provides smooth trigger action and paint flow.
Removable head system
Spray pattern: hairline to 3/4" (hairline to 20mm)

I have 3 different Iwata Airbrushes. The Custom Micron B is an incredible gun capable of much finer detail than my skills can currently support. I hope to some day work up to the level of this fine tool

For extreme detail there is no better gun
|

Cons:

absolutely none

My favorite gun, this thing with properly thinned urethane is my weapon of choice when it comes to mural or detail work. It is made like a fine swiss watch, beautiful finish and action and laser like precision.

Pros:

Extreme precison, hair line work all day, easy cleaning and maintenance. Finest airbrush I have found.
|
|
Cons:
|
A bit pricey for the new airbrusher.
|

The Iwata Micron \"B\" is the most precise airbrush I have found. If you are looking for an airbrush, that if taken care of, creates fine hair lines, time after time with fluid trigger action, this work horse is for you. Buy once, take care of it, and it will last forever. The 1/8 oz. gravity feed color cup holds enough paint for the fine work this airbrush is noted for without getting in the view of the airbrusher. The Micron\'s tip is in the head assembly which makes clean up easier than the Iwata HP models that have the tip screwed into the body. For hair lines to bold lines the Micron \"B\" can\'t be beat.

Nothing is to be feared, it is only to be understood.

Pros:
|
Most detail 2B had
|
|
Cons:
|
O-rings are not solvent proof. Can't use automotive paints
|
|
I've used the brush a few time with Dr. Ph Martin's dyes. It is INSANE. The action is so smooth, it doesn't even feel like it's made of metal. The detail is such that one can litterally get lost playing around to see how fine a line you get. Alas the Micron (at least the one I had from 1996) boasts no protection from the harsh chemicals that make up solvent based paints. A real shame as the detail achieved with a properly thinned automotive paint would be unreal when combined with the micron.

Reality is the only word in the language that should always be used in quotes.
