you will love it try useing the 0.4 aircap with the 0.15 nozzle for extra air pressure it makes a world of difference as the 0.15 aircap is very restricted
be extremly carefull with the 0.15 needles they bend easily pull you trigger back when takeing the horns on and off

1. Paul I will be extremely careful! I wish it had a use & explanation instruction sheet!
2. Nat I'm not going to be able to try it until tomorrow because my wife has been gone to a conference in Las Vegas all week! I could have went along for the ride but, well you can see how I spend my money and she understands! But I have missed her!
3. Sharon I will be the real test for the Infinity! If my airbrushing improves I will sold on cashey airbrushes! If not then I will know its the operator!

I will remember that is why I'm so slow! I'm learning and searching for something unlike anybody else! I also have an Autograph Tracer Projector that got for a Christmas present that I have not taken the time to see how it works!

Great brush ,Paul's right about the 0.15 easy damaged ,I moved up to a 0.2 still great detail.
I always used the 0.15 from the start...The other day I got curious and popped in the other combo...Just to see what it did...I could hardly find a diff in lines, Barely at all if any.....Good stuff:)

that has been noticed by others including myself the 0.4 is very very capable of detailing i thinks it due to the double taper on the very tip of the needle
others have gone over to the 0.2 fine line set up for a more durable needle ,im still stubornly useing the 0.15 as i have three extra setups for it
on that subject all th H&S setups are very cheap and make this one of the most versatile airbrushes on the market .i got the optional fpc valve for my harder brushes, great little item for controling your air pressure direct at the gun and very neat

Is that an option from H/S made for the Infinity, or something else that just works on it?....I know Grex makes a lil valve like that..I think will fit most AB's..I've been wanting to track one down and give it a go one day.

its a direct harder replacement for the original airvalve unit screw out screw in job done. it also fits thier other models ,i have one on my evolution as all the bodies are identical from the focus to the infinity ,all the set ups fit all thier airbrushes including the grafo and the ultra im not certain about the Hansa models but others say the set ups fit them as well
most all thier airbrushes are variants of the original Focus model with added options
its a direct harder replacement for the original airvalve unit screw out screw in job done.
Didn't know there was such an option..Wouldn't have a link by chance would ya:)

heres the H&S link the new holder look nice and thie other original modular ones are cheap http://www.harder-airbrush.de/english/index.html
check out the fpc under the spares section
harder now do an fpc version of the infinty and the evolution for a few dollers more but its a direct replacement i paid $50 or $60 or so dollers for two of them from chicago
Hey Paul, does that work like a bleeder valve?....With those hole looking things in the side there..Looks like it simply lets air bleed out...I hate that kind....Or is it a valve like on a regulator (no air escapes)....Just curious..Thanks for playin..LOL

on the subject of H&S thier designs are one of the nicest around so modern looking even thier jellyfish cleaning station looks great above all its the price of these units thats astonishing they must be the best value for money on the market today
so many people and good artists are choosing them over and above microns and that is not all due to the price either they do perform excedingly well
when i first got my infinity i treated it like a piece of jewelery it was a shame i had to put paint in it LOL

Glad you bought it Robert, you will not be disapointed. It is a great airbrush. Even with the .4 it makes thin lines like any top-ab on the market. Enjoy!

Ok! Questions! Does the paint need to be any thinner than usual for the .15 setup? Also when you purchase a new needle does it come with a matched nozzle like it does new as you people call setups? Or Do those need to be purchased separately? I've heard talk of .15, .4, and .2! Is there a .3 in-between .2 & .4?
I can't believe how extreme the hose is with a quick coupler! The flexibility of the hose is complete! I've never seen a hose so ready to use!

all spares are listed on the site they are available as individual or complete setups cant recale a 0.3 but the 0.4 doese the job very well indeed
just hit the link and check out the spares list quote the part no to your dealer and away you go 0.6 are listed for the infinity but im pretty sure that the coloni 0.8 1.0 and 1.2 will fit that gun takes all the smaller infinity set ups
oversize cups are available as well
a set up includes aircap needle cap o rings nozzle and needle and its got to be the best deal on any airbush set up for price
i think the list price is around $36

I hope so also! I won't forget you when I start buying any extras! Like to spend my money & support the people I know! I wouldn't even have one if wasn't for the price on ebay! The person I bought it from couldn't thank me enough for buying it! He carves and paints wild life fowl! He said it did everything his Paasche AB would do except the Infinity's paint reservoir was to big! So he went back to the AB!

Guys I have never had an airbrush spray like the infinity! Granted I've never sprayed any of the higher cost airbrush although I have 2 Iwata HP BC! I would trade all 6 of my airbrushes plus $100.00 to have another Infinity! I sure would like to try some of the other brands that Harder & Steenbeck manufacture!
Now I must eat crow! I have defended various American made brands of ABs! They have got a lot of fast running to do to catch up with Harder & Steenbeck!

get the focus add a 0.15 set up hey presto another infinity but without the gadgets the bodies are all the same and a US infinity is also available a little cheaper with the standard non fine line 0.15 set up that you have to remove the aircap to fine line
im sure the 0.15 fine line also fits the cheapest ultra version as well
the progresive action grafo is also a harder model worth looking at

Oh man! Expectations! The user still has a lot to do with the out come of the airbrush! Is it possible to cut the head off of this snake before it swallows me! :16_7_207::animal-smiley-071::crazy:
Edit: I also received a new Thayer & Chandler Vega 2000 & .25 side cup from Badger yesterday free of charge! Just know it suffices me to say the Badger Airbrush Company stands behind their products!
