I always get messed up on trigger installation and it seems like it gets glossed over very quickly.
She didn't show which part goes up or down when she inserts it
The trigger keeper alignment part is the most confusing part to me and unfortunately the way this is shot I have no idea what you are doing.
The airbrush has been such a great tool for priming during poor weather and creating very nice transitions as well. Some good tips here, thanks for the video.
Thank you so much. I was having difficulty re-assembling my Eclipse so that the trigger worked properly but I am all set after watching your terrific video. Thanks again.
You're welcome!
I was having a hard time finding a video showing how to properly disassemble the Iwata Revolution (specifically the part with the o-ring) but this worked just as well. Appreciate the short concise video.
Thanks so much, just bought one (first ever airbrush), of course took it apart straight away because I like to see how things work then instantly panicked putting it back together, saved by your vid !
Great video. I've been searching for a full teardown for half a week. Thank you!
Great video, so many people show pulling the needle out the back, but t makes sense to pull out the front so as not to pull dry paint through the packing seal etc
Glad it was helpful!
Thankyou for teaching me how to put back together an accidentally disassembled airbrush!
When you inserted the trigger keeper you didn't show which end goes up... The wide part is skinny part
Thank you, the instructions are great from an engineering point of view but nothing beats a video showing the actual parts.
Glad it helped
Excellent video! Clear simple and concise.
Concise and very clear to follow, thank you!
What about the air valve sleeve that the air valve rod goes into? I have a GSI Creos and I'm under the impression they are roughly the same. How do you remove the air valve sleeve that the rod, spring and cap sit in?
The tweezer recommendation was great, thank you!!!
Thanks DeeJay.
Great information.
Good to know.
Be safe
I have same a brush push down for air getting bad blow back any idea what problem is all tips r clean
A video about the techniques you use with the airbrush would be awesome
I recently won an eclipse at auction. I’m having issues unscrewing the back off to remove the needle. Suggestion?
Thank you very much for making this video! I haven't used my Eclipse in about 20 years (I've been using my Badger 360) and it wasn't spraying paint. I wasn't sure about removing that tiny air nozzle head. I was able to do that, & that's where it was clogged up.
Thanks so much save me the time of trying to fiquire this out. Bless you!
Thanks so much for solving my reassembly problem!
Excellent video .Very helpful
Life saver vid. THANKS!!!!
Left out the needle packing bolt.ive got splattering after I turn on full fluid and full air and turn off then when I turn on air paint sticks to needle and initially I get splatter and when I continue to use as long as I don't go full fluid and air lit will not splatter do you know what problem could be also got a new nozzle and polished and sanded the needle with no luck do you think it could be needle
My nozzle wrench says it does not fit with any iwata airbrush in the eclipse series. You are using an eclipse here, so how did you unscrew the nozzle tip with the regular nozzle wrench?
What size is o ring on needle cap
Video cuts scenes and misses details
Wondering how you thin your paints??
Do you thin the bottle or the paint as you go along?
How much should I use?
Help me here! Lol
Thanks for all your help DeeJayBe.
thanks!
I thought the iwata wrench doesn’t work on the eclipse series
Thank you
I noticed you don't have a rubber gasket on the very bottom and instead used a quick connect. Any problems with leaking air? Getting that tiny o-ring gasket is a pain!
You can connect the hose directly to the airbrush or have a quick connect. The quick connect does not leak at all, and you can hear it click in.
Which way is the trigger keeper aligned.. pointy end up or down.. can't see in your video.
Pointy end up!
Just a quick note: The person who said the nozzle shouldn't be taken apart seems to be correct. From Iwata's website:
"For Iwata Eclipse airbrushes (compression fit nozzle):
The nozzle (4) for the Eclipse BS, SBS and CS is a set and *SHOULD NEVER BE SEPARATED.*
*DO NOT USE* the Iwata Nozzle Wrench on compression fit nozzles."
Unfortunately there is a good degree of paint buildup within the threads. Overtime it does need to be separated for optimum cleaning. I definitely don’t always do this- just for deep cleans. I’ve never had a problem since using the nozzle wrench.
@@DeeJayBeStudios I never knew it could be separated and OMG there is paint in there from 30 projects ago. Thank you for this video.
Great video but the only thing perturbing me is that the Iwata company cleaning videos state 'do not disassemble friction fit nozzles'. You have to replace the whole assembly if damaged. It's a non no.
How do I get the golden tip out, mine is just stucked, can’t remove it that easy
If you add some isopropyl alcohol down into the cup. You can Gently push the nozzle to one side to release it. Be careful not to damage the tip.
Played the video at 50% speed, it goes really fast!
Haha
Come si toglie la vite interna al corpo per sistituire la guarnizione ? How do you remove the screw inside the body to replace the gasket?
Use a screwdriver, flat. Be sensible on the size
Never remove the nozzle tip as shown at 1:21 in the video. That tool is designed for the Iwata neo, *not* the eclipse. You cannot replace just that metal tip of the nozzle on the eclipse, but you can on the neo. If you ever need to replace your nozzle tip on an eclipse, you don't buy them separately, the nozzle tip comes as a complete assembly with the nozzle body. Disassembling the nozzle further can impact the performance of the brush, cause needle and nozzle misalignment, overall degradation of performance, leaks, etc. If you need to clean the nozzle, you can soak it in cleaner and/or use a shaved toothpick or the needle itself to clean inside the nozzle, there is never a need or reason to disassemble it on the eclipse.
Yep, I’ve seen this comment several times on the video. The piece does come apart for the purpose of this video. But not needed for general cleaning.
@@DeeJayBeStudios It *can* come apart but there is simply no reason to do so. The inside of the nozzle can be cleaned without disassembly using a toothpick. Its a completely avoidable risk that has no benefit.
In fact, in Iwata's own official video for cleaning the CS it states not to disassemble the nozzle assembly.
czcams.com/video/OMBvMIG9dbA/video.html
The tool you used is made for the Neo, which can be seen being disassembled in this other official iwata video
czcams.com/video/3bSUj0l4zM8/video.html
Edit: I read in another post where you stated that a buildup of paint can get in the threads. This is not actually true. The "buildup" you noticed after disassembling the first time is the sealing agent (threadlocker) used when the factory assembled the nozzle. They are machined together,, and on the inside (if you use a microscope) there is no lip or transition between the nozzle body and tip. It only ever needs to be cleaned with a toothpick after being soaked in cleaner. If the nozzle is worn to the point that disassembling the nozzle seems like the only possible solution, then it is time to replace the nozzle, not disassemble it. There is simply no way for you to torque it back to the proper factory spec after, it will either be too loose, which WILL allow paint to seep into the threads, or it will be too tight, which will deform the brass or nickel and create a lip or mar which will reduce brush performance, in which you create the very problem you're attempting to correct by disassembling the nozzle.
All that said, its your brush, do what you want.
The problem is that your video implies that this is proper step in a deep cleaning procedure, and its not. What you do with your brush is not my concern, its what you influence other people to do with theirs that concerns me. People might listen to that advice, even though its bad advice. Deep cleaning does not require the disassembly of the nozzle, ever, and if people follow your instruction they could ultimately diminish their brushes performance, which has the potential to creates negative experiences both with this hobby, and with this brush in particular.
I recently went to a store that sells airbrushes that shouldn’t sell airbrushes. Sorta like having a bunch of preschoolers loose in a gun store. They don’t even know anything about the product and eventually, over time, something ugly is bound to happen. That said I had to do my own hobby research and should have stayed in the lobby of that craft store if you get my drift.....I did find a great deal on iwata HP-BCS but it was the weekend and iwata customer service was closed....so I got that airbrush but it has a .5 mm needle. The highly recommended HP-CS has .35 mm needle....also on display were the needles, nozzles and caps for iwata in .35 but for CN model airbrushes,,,finally my question,,,,,,can I use the .35 CN fittings in the HP-BCS or has Iwata booby trapped them so you can’t interchange parts in their airbrushes???? Or along this line, are the fittings generic and I could use other brands interchangeably???? For example badger, panache, or master needles, nozzles and caps in an Iwata?????? Thanks for the input. Vegas is really slim pickings in this category an I have to go to Anaheim CA for definitive answers.
You can only use iwata parts on an iwata airbrush. I do believe that you can use the 0.35 needle set. You would need the nozzle, needle & nozzle head to do so. I have the Micron airbrush as well; and it converts to two sizes of needle just based on the head components.
...THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I see several comments praising this video which mention its conciseness, yet I feel the conciseness of this video comes at the cost of glancing over certain elements of some of the steps . . . such as the orientation of the aux lever located on the needle guide when reassembling the airbrush, as if one can reasonably assume that everyone who is not certain how to take apart or reassemble their airbrush, and hence why they would want to view this video, already know the correct orientation of the aux lever for reassembly. It is incredibly easy to fail at putting yourself into your audience's shoes, and mindset, that we tend to overlook, and subconsciously assume that our audience already knows what we know, especially when giving instructions. We are not even aware of what we glance over. I'm uncertain what they teach in advanced educational institutions nowadays, but I had to write numerous essays, of which the most difficult one was to write instructions on how to perform some activity, such as tying one's shoes, or whatever we choose. However, the professor stressed that we should pick something that was extremely basic, because as we would begin writing these instructions, we had to assume that our readers knew about the activity that we were attempting to provide the instructions on how to perform said activity. We had to be concise, yet we had to ensure that we covered all bases by touching upon any area that might be misinterpreted, misunderstood, or perhaps just too ambiguous. Our instructions had to be precise so that every step was performed precisely as it needed to be, without any misinterpretations that would potentially cause some readers to perform said step incorrectly.
Think about writing instructions on how to tie the shoelaces on a pair of shoes with only using text, no pictures! Now, picture needing to present these instructions to a five-year-old in a manner that they would comprehend. Now, imagine that the five-year-old knows what shoes are, but they have never seen anyone tie shoelaces previously, that they have never seen the activity being done, so they have no previous reference for what the activity looks like, nor are they aware of what the final results will look like.
Well, with that, one could not simply instruct the reader to take the ends of the shoelace, one in each hand, and form bunny ears, "Bunny ears, bunny ears, playing by a tree. Criss-crossed the tree," and then state to cross the loops to make an "X". Followed by saying, "Trying to catch me, bunny ears, bunny ears jumped into the hole," and now push one of the loops into the hole created at the bottom of the center of the laces. Then conclude with, "Popped out of the other side beautiful and bold," and now simply pull both loops tightly to tie the shoes.
Although the instructions make perfect sense, mostly, for people who already know how to tie their shoes, if you could put yourself in the mind state of not knowing how to tie your shoes, or even recalling what it looks like, and then under such a perspective, you attempt to follow the instructions precisely as written, you shall find that such instructions fail miserably. This comes about because the author failed at putting themselves in the shoes of their readers, and without even being conscious of it, they skipped over vital details of key steps, or failed to include sufficient information for a particular step. Instructions are incredibly difficult to write that are clear, concise, and all-encompassing.
I may be criticizing, but it is intended as constructive criticism . . . not only for the creator of this video, but for anybody who might read this, and then find themselves making an instructional video, or merely wanting to instruct someone on how to do something. Go ahead, try to write some instruction on how to do some simple task, place yourself in your audience's shoes, and be sure your instructions are clear, concise, and non-ambiguous. Try
to eliminate all potential misunderstandings from your instructions, and where they can not be eliminated, make sure to touch upon that to your audience by giving them tips, or guidelines to ensure that the reader fully understands every step while avoiding even the smallest amount of confusion or uncertainty. Then, once you believe you have written decent instructions, call upon friends, and family members, those who you believe could do a decent job of reading your instructions as if they did not already know how to perform, or achieve, the instructions' intended outcome. Actually, have them perform the instructions as they read them, and discover how many details you have overlooked by not realizing that a reader could interpret one word, or some phrase differently than what you had imagined. Perhaps you didn't even think about how that one phrase in that key sentence for performing that one step could even have been interpreted other than what meaning you had intended. Basically, what I am trying to say here is that there is a plethora of obstacles which need to be overcome in order to write decent instructions, many of which are invisible to one's thoughts.
I doubt anyone will bother with the above exercise as a means to fully realize the difficulty of such a task, so I had included it regardless as more of a statement than a request. One should always place themselves within their audience's shoes regardless of the medium, be it written, or spoken word, or audiovisual in nature or any other form, and it is absolutely vital to do so when it comes to writing instructions. It is one hell of a good exercise to try because it will likely illustrate, for any participant, how difficult writing decent instructions actually is . . . likely several times over what you are currently imagining without having tried it.
So, yeah, this creator deserves some praise for what she has managed to convey in this video, and the manner in which it is being delivered, regarding both auditory, and visual, elements, but it is not perfect, and has left some seeking knowledge to continue seeking elsewhere, when she could have provided said knowledge.
The nozzle unit is NOT designed to be taken apart, as stated in the instructions, it is an entity and not comparable to the tiny nozzles used on the more expensive models.. 🤔😵
There are times I must release the delicate nozzle from the rest of the nozzle in order to clean. That is where I use the nozzle wrench. Paint gets into the threads that needs to be cleaned.
