Default airbrush/spraygun

With GW announcing a recall for the spray gun, I am in a position where an airbrush of some description would be extremely useful.

This question goes to my fellow British forum members more than anything else, as we have no such thing as "the local Home Depot where everything is needed is under $10", and so they'll know the right place to look.

I'm looking for something relatively low cost, easy to use, reliable, quick to clean and easy to find in an appropriate shop (or online).

I own two airbrushes a Badger 150 and a Harder & Steenbeck Infinity . I would recommend the first one for it the simpler to use while less precise. You'll also quickly find that you'll need a compressor. Don't be shy on it, you can go a good 20 years and more with a good one.
You can have a look STDS Direct ( yes I know it's all in french !) no badger but quite a good service. While not on the cheaper side of the net

The airbrush - which one to get and how to use it. Heres a Airbrush Breakdown thingy. I do agree that the Badger is a nice all around brush and a compresor is a must.
