Model Train Caboose - Weathering Project

Click on Show More

The second in my new series of start-to-finish videos, this follows the challenge of weathering a caboose!. This is a Rapido Trains HO replica of a CP Rail caboose that remains on display in Plum Coulee, Manitoba. This one presented some unique challenges, as it already had pre-applied graffiti, but needed a bit more work to look like its prototype.

Grex Genesis XGi3 Airbrush Starter Set https://amzn.to/2E6l1pg
(Dual-action Gravity Feed airbrush, compressor, braided 6ft hose, and a getting started DVD)
This is an updated version of the combo set that I started with. The advantage of this newer version is that if you wanted to swap out needle sizes, it can be done with upgrade kits, and it comes with different sizes of paint cups. It comes with a 0.3mm needle as standard. This also comes with the same compressor that you saw in the video. I’ve been very happy with my setup. It has done everything I’ve asked it to. Fittings on this airbrush and hose are ⅛” which are compatible with Iwata hoses.
