If you're like me and have multiple airbrushes, keeping track of their sizes can be difficult.

Recycle bread ties with the needle size written on them to help keep things sorted out. You may or may not have to open the inside up a little to fit around the bottom of the brush but at least you know what size airbrush you're grabbing.

Have you converted the HP-C+ to 0.2mm?
If I remember correctly, the Eclipse should be 0.35mm. 😀

I'm a bit crazy when it comes to airbrushes. I have quite a few, and ive owned many more. I even had a store selling and servicing airbrushes for a while.
