The kit comes with a two-sided Iwata Air Valve Guide Wrench, Soft Jaw Pliers, Needle Packing Screwdrivers (for 1.2mm and 1.4mm diameter needles), Nozzle Wrench, a protective Needle Tube and easy-to-follow instructions with diagrams. All of the items fit securely in the elastic straps within the soft-sided zippered case, with the case having extra room to carry up to three airbrushes.
An inner, zipper pouch is ideal for containing small replacement parts. It’s perfect for artists in the studio and on the go.
This tool kit can be used in combination with the Iwata Airbrush Cleaning Kit,
the Cleaning Kit Refill Pack and the Iwata Airbrush Cleaning Mat.
If you use airbrushes in your work or hobbies, you may find yourself acting as part-time artist and part-time airbrush technician. You have done the research, chosen the right airbrushes, and put in the practice-time so now it makes sense to keep those airbrushes operating at peak performance. While you endeavour to develop good technique and work habits, if you also adopt high standards of cleaning and maintenance you will be way ahead in the long run. Like so many things, the more you learn the better the experience is.
Learning to be your own airbrush technician is a natural part of being an airbrush artist. It satisfies the urge to master your craft in its entirety and ultimately leads to a higher level of satisfaction in using airbrushes.
Years in the making, these tools have been a pet-project for Product Development Leader William Naemura who says,
“I have always wanted the perfect tool set for my Iwata Airbrushes. Now I have it and so can you!”
