Just bought a new Iwata Neo, gravity feed and took it for its first test drive, some Vallejo Primer on my Dicker Max. I have to say I am VERY impressed!!!! The Neo is an excellent airbrush, and I have found even out performs my higher priced Paasche 10 fold. At the price point of the Iwata Neo (about $70 Cdn) it is definitely worth the money, and a solid investment for anyone looking to getting into airbrushing on any budget.

Using the Neo since a good year. Like it a lot with Tamiya paints, had some problems with Revell Aqua but those are likely due to the colors itself

Ive been using the Neo grvity feed for a few months now, I have found its not keen on Humbrol and Vallejo Model colour but I think that might be my terrible thinning practises rather than the air brush.Tamiya is a delight to spray through it and the price point cant be beat.

Hello all, I'm looking to get a new airbrush and I might get one of these? How are they to clean? replacement tips? How fine of a line do they spray? Any chance of anybody showing thier work? I use mostly Model Master paints. Thank you for your time. Rick

Hi Rick,spares are easy to get your Iwata supplier should have them.Cleaning is quite easy but it does have a small nozzle I soaked the nozzle in air brush cleaner and its ok no problem with fine lines cant show any work as I cant work out how to post them (only been on this site since 2002)
