About this deal

Having a water trap to stop moisture mixing with your paint will always be more beneficial over not having one, but if you only do a little casual airbrushing in an environment that’s not overly humid then you should be fine without one. Just the same way in that if your caravan environment is more humid than outside, it will start to balance with the drier environment. The moisture allowed through then condenses from vapour into small liquid water drops in the hose and ultimately mixes with the paint. The final example here is the Badger 50-054 Air Regulator, Filter and Gauge, for mounting directly to the compressor outlet port. It’s another combination unit like the Paasche above, providing full control of the air pressure but rated to 135psi.

Having water in your paint in this manner can lead to what’s called fisheyes or humidity spotting, however while these are the same things they can be caused by slightly different things:Ambient air moisture trap (case of 12) offers and online promotions, straight from the current Home Bargains leaflet Below is the Paasche R-75 Regulator and Moisture Trap which combines a water trap with an air pressure regulator and gauge for controlling pressures up to 100psi, which should be suitable for most airbrush compressor pressure ranges.

As discussed in the prior section, if you’re airbrushing in very high humidity air as you might find in tropical areas or on a very rainy day, the moisture in the air can affect the paintwork regardless of whether you’re using a water trap or not. Typically it water trap will be a small glass bottle situated between the compressor/tank and your airbrush, most often bolted directly to the tank or frame it’s held in. Your paintwork will become much more susceptible to problems with humidity in the air resulting in water being atomised with your paint when it is being airbrushed. Nature will take it's course of seeking homeostasis, and your caravan environment will then draw moisture inside.If you’re savvy with this sort of thing it can certainly be done, with some brands making the process relatively simple. The solution here is to ensure your compressor and associated parts are sufficiently cooled, or to simply stop airbrushing for a little while and allow a hot compressor to cool.

If you place a trap you will find it attracts moisture, this in turn drives you to get another one, eventually you convice yourself you have a major problem. It is by the nature of the crystals in the trap that they attract moisture, so you could place on in your kitchen and see it fill up. A suacer of salt will do the same.I found a huge amount of ventilation holes everywhere in the caravan. In the roof lights, under the seating, everywhere. The words water trap, moisture trap and moister filter can be used interchangeably when talking about airbrushing compressors, and for the rest of the article I’ll use the term ‘water trap’. Alternatively, you can get water traps that connect to the bottom of your airbrush and do essentially the same job, the only problem being that the airbrush can be a little unwieldy to operate if the water trap is substantial in size and/or weight.
