In this video, we tackle the question many of you have asked: Will the Harbor Freight trigger style .5mm airbrush spray 2K clearcoat effectively? Join me as we dive into testing the Harbor Freight Black Widow airbrush, which I previously had some issues with in a first review video on my channel.
After encountering problems with the fan pattern despite cleaning and troubleshooting, I decided to exchange the airbrush. Upon unboxing the new unit, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the spray pattern functioned much better, suggesting that the previous one may have been defective.
Now, we're putting this new airbrush to the test to see how well it handles 2K clearcoat. Watch as we explore its capabilities and answer the burning question on its performance with a .5mm fan cap tip. Your feedback and questions are always welcome, so don't hesitate to drop a comment below!
Thank you for tuning in. Don't forget to explore my other custom paint tutorials for more tips and tricks.

I started with a Master Airbrush special from Amazon. I upgraded to the trigger Black Widow a week ago, it helped improve my airbushing and gave me more confidence. If anything it is a great intermediate airbrush if you're not sure you want to invest in more expensive options.
Great advice!! Thank you. 🙏
Def looks to be on par with Badger's popular airbrushes. Not bad to start or jump as intermediate.
@@TimeWarpCustomPainttotally different subject:
Adam,
Can I put urethane clear over clear lacquer???
(I just switched from using lacquer, and would prefer not to buy a whole new quart to finish)
@@Daddy53751 as long as it’s a two-part
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint thanks brother! My guitars thank you.🤘🏻
That webbing looks cool.. almost like the marbling we did back in the 80s 90s
This is a game changer for small projects.
For Sure

Love the airbrush opening you can almost hear it sing!!!!! Love the videos super informative.
Glad you enjoyed it
I like all the features and the exposed needle for fine work. Very nice.
When you remove paint cup cap try twisting upwards & clockwise so you don’t accidentally loosen the cup itself. Maybe that will help 🤷🏼♂️ ... I am definitely gona tryout this trigger style airbrush!! Thanks for the review & upload! After this video I’ll have to watch your review on the compressor
Good tip. The compressor is the best
I wish I could buy one of those out here in Australia what a great little air brush
If ya know anyone in the states, just have them buy one at Harbor Freight and ship it to ya.
I used mine last night for some small interior parts on my truck. Worked great. I think I prefer your mini gun for anything larger than say, 3 or 4 sq. ft. though just because of the size and amount of product it lays down.
Agreed 👍
It's good but can't find parts that fit it. The needle is 14cm long vs 13 which is all you can find on Amazon or anywhere else, so I can't even replace the needle for it. Needle is also thicker than the universal ones that master brush would use, so you can't swap parts....
Good to know 👍
Thanks for the demo!
Thanks for watching
I'd like to see you do an entire tank with this, minus flake and flood over flake.
Maybe a peanut tank
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint a large 40ML cup may be beneficial for the airbrush gun. I know when I did my tank, after gunmetal flake, I was able to push some ultra fine .008 holographic flake over the top of it with my airbrush before clear coating. I just wanted a hint of the holographic color. I'm thinking of repainting my Street Bob and would seriously consider purchasing this whole kit if it meant I could do base to graphics to candy to clear using just this gun for shiz an giggles.
Now we need to see if the Webmaker stuff from Lime Line will spray thru this Black Widdow correctly . Because lets face it, loading up a full size or even a mini gun, to spray a model car, truck, plane, T-Bucket dash panel or other really small project, just aint gonna cut it having to mixing up that much Webmaker paint. Maybe a Paasche Talon with the .66 needle and fan spray cap setup will work ?
thanks for mentiontion the inconsistancy with this brand .. i guess now consumer will have a better idea of what he will be expecting ..
Thanks for a great video.
Looks to me like the pressure is too high. As this style airbrush (I have 3 Creos ps290 and a paasche Talon with fan caps) does not have a fan control, the fan is controlled mainly by the pressure setting and to some degree the paint thickness.
I could see this being great for cerakote
Yep same, that’s why I was looking forward to a review like this
What's up guys. Hope you're having a great day
When i seen that pattern i thought something was wrong.. clogged or something. Looks like it would be great with an even fan
this video quality is wonderful....thanks 😁😁👌👌
Great airbrush at a great price worth picking up.
Agreed!
For good smooth 2K finish you might try rustoleum lacquer leveling thinner!🤔
Jman
hey! i really dig that shovelhead you have back there in this video! 🤘🔥
Thanks 👍
Get a bit of sand paper rub around the lid of the tank itll fit in just right not to tight.
Do you prefer the trigger airbrush or the other style with the black widow ?
Turned out nice
Thanks Darryl
You know where can I get replacement nozzles? The air brush came with a 0.5mm and 0.3mm but I would love to have a 0.2mm
I don’t think you can. You’ll just take the whole airbrush back to Harbor freight
thats good for a 70 dollar ab but i have learned my lesson 😅 if u dont want hassle then go for the tried and test tools ment for this specific job 😊
Does basecoat come only in white? If clearcoat comes in different colours what is your favourite colour? And does base coat affect the colours?
How hard it is to clean? 2k is not something that will dissolve later. I use vaccum suction type airbrush with 1.0 nozzle, but I want flat spray pattern. Is there vaccum airbrushes with flat spray pattern?
What did you reduce it with? the Limeline brand universal reducer or another brand? Do you think it might work with the other HF blackwidow dual action airbrush with .3 needle?
Yes LiME LiNE. I don’t think the needles are in interchangeable.
Still sprays with a weird pattern. What's that split fade in the middle? My old mini siphon still works better, plus it has a decent size cup.
Yes, there’s definitely better options
How big of glitter flake do you think can be sprayed with clear or createx mid coat using this brush?
It would have to be a micro flake.
Hey Adam, What mix ratio do you use for thinning airbrushing base
It depends on the basecoat that you’re using, but since you’re using an airbrush, usually, you would thin it out a little more than one to one
Thanks! Love your videos!
Does trigger type airbrushes have dry tip issues ?
Yes but not as often as it seems
Hey Adam I’m missing some stuff from my recent order and cant seem to get in touch with ya, what’s the best way?
Hey Sloan, email us at info@limelinepaintsupply.com and we will get you taken care of ASAP. Sorry about this.
Can a person spray metal flake using this gun?
To paint a helmet in silver flake and clear?
You can spray a metallic basecoat, but no, it won’t spray metal flake
Sounds like DJ VLAD
What is the panel size approximately adam
The small one is like 10 x 12
Hey Adam what Psi did you spray the clear coat?
All the way up. It was about 22 psi
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint but that compressor goes all the way up to 60psi
Paasche has had this for years.
The talon has air cap, now what other paasche airbrush has that?
What brand paint did you use for the first panel?
LiME LiNE pigment powders mixed in LiME LiNE clear basecoat
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint thanks for the reply Adam.
not bad they mightve come out with something worthwhile, although I wouldnt replace my Iwata line with it, that airbrush compressor tho I like that
The compressor is the best
Nice, hey fellow airbrush artist/ painter here I apreciate what u do on utube Thx👍🤙😎
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint any reason its better than a untra quiet mini shop compressor like the fortress?
What’s up everyone
how do we get this airbrush in the UK?
No harbor freight in UK?
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint unfortunately not
I would rather the caps too tight than too loose.
Fact 👍
Next let’s see if it can spray flake hahaha
Micro flake maybe 🤔
They will charge you a restocking fee
They waved it because I got the same brush as a exchange
@@TimeWarpCustomPaint they waived it for me as well because I got a filtration system that cost more than the brush.
I returned the compressor because it was defective, didn't have another one but they still charged me a restock fee for a unit that won't be restocked, it was defective. I find that odd but that's their policy I guess
There should not be a restocking fee for a defective product. Insist on talking to manager
Is it me or how can you spray clear through that you need at least a 1.3 tip usually and way higher pressure
It works you just gotta reduce it about 10% with your reducer
