|
The airbrush for now and the next 100 years features thin barrel grip and a cut-away red anodized handle that allows quick pullback of needle mechanism to blow out clogs. Round trigger button rolls under your finger for greater comfort and better control. The MIL gives you the same great airbrushing results achievable with your Paasche VL airbrush. Optional color cup and bottle assemblies are available for larger volumes of paint.
MIL Spray Pattern 1/32"- 1 1/4" Medium Fluids
Recommended Air Pressure .5 to 1 CFM @ 20 to 45 lbs
depending on type of fluid being sprayed.

Pros:
|
Budget-priced , versatile, Cut-away Handle
|
|
Cons:
|
Does not spray well under 25 psi . During disassembly/cleaning , inspection revealed a few burrs/flashing in the needle cap area

This is my first AB and the overall experience was pretty good. I, personally, like the overall feel of the VL Millenium. It would spray
the "ready to spray" paints fairly well, but some would clog more than others, and would dry on the needle. Spraying cleaner through the AB would usually remove the residue though. It worked much better when thinning(Createx) 10 - 20%. Seems to be a rugged AB , that would be suitable for a wide range of media(dependent on the size of the tip/needle). A little intimidating the first time you disassemble/clean/reassemble , but after a few times it was easier and faster. I HIGHLY recommend lubing the needle with SuperLube, and a little dab in the trigger/rocker area makes it feel much easier to use.

Pros:
|
A great airbrush for the price.
|
|
Cons:
|
The round button on the trigger.
|

I have had the Millenium airbrush about one year.
It is a narrow version of the Paasche VL models. I am
not a top pro air brusher, but I airbrush at least two hours a day. A serious hobbiest. The main thing that bothers me from using my Millenium alot is the round button that sticks up for the trigger.
For me its very uncomfortable. The only parts that interchange with the VL are the needle, airvalve where airline attaches, inner and outer nozzles and bottles. If Paasche wants to compete with
anyone else they need to make a trigger alot like the VL or even an airbrush where it doesn't stick up a mile. This is a bad feature of this otherwise great airbrush.
