Dave,

Welcome to the site. No, I have never used an Airbrush City airbrush but I have used a Paasche H airbrush. That looks a lot like what they are selling. So much alike in fact they must either be rebranding Paasche airbrushes or they are about to get sued for infringing on Paasche's patents.

Looking at their website it looks to me they sell "their" versions of Paasche, Badger, etc. airbrushes. Not casting dispersions on Airbrush City here but I think I would just go ahead and get a Paasche...

Looks like a Paasche H to me. Like I said they may be just rebranding Paasche stuff under license.





Hope this helps,

Shaun

Good Luck

I have bought a lot of stuff from them . I have a couple of the Pasche double action AB from them along with a couple of air compressors. I have been very happy with the service from them. I got a couple of the single action AB's but I have never used them.The were freebies when I bought my last combo package of Pasche AB with compressor. I like my Pasche so I have never had the urge to try them. They look to be a copy of the Aztec ones I think.

I tried a dual action 49.00 buck thing it lasted 3 months then simply quit (it started blowing air in to the paint instead of sucking). Comparing it to the Iwata I have now........well theres no comparison. Air brush City was very polite to deal with and responded to my emails quickly , and their prices are decent, so if you know what your buying I say go for it.

ps I did get a compressor from them as well and it works great.
