Thanks, Prof!

One question regarding the Badger cups. The link you gave shows many, corresponding to different models. Do they all work with the Iwata Eclipse, or only a specific one?

I use both ..I have a pair of Iwata gravity feed and a Badger cresendo 175.... ( I have a Badger 150 but hate the brush and no longer use it) .. I do base coats, pearlized paint with the badger, I do scales and fine detail with the Iwata... I keep a 5 gallon bucket with warm water near by for flushing between colors...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

the 1/4 oz one. The one with the angled up tube, not the one that goes straight out the side. The angled up one allows you to slip into bottom tube on brush . One that went in straight would not allow you to attach from bottom and you would have very messy sneakers. You can usually buy the cups at Micheals or AC Moores so you may want to got there and get it just in case it won't work but I am almost positive there should be no problem as I have been doing it for a few years. Hope that helps

LOL! I can picture it now. Thanks for the helpful information - it's great for someone who doesn't yet know what they're doing. And intends to keep their sneakers reasonably clean. Though it may go well with a tie-dye shirt ....
