Ever heard of Blue Point airbrushes?

Post by joey_d1119 »

I found an old, never been used before airbrush in the garage. Totally brand new.

It was made by blue point, and appears to be about 20 years old. Saying that the thing looks like a beauty. Its double action, and the closest thing I can compare it to is the Badger 150 and 100 SF.

Anyway, anyone ever heard of Blue Point and used it?

"Snap On" owns blue point I guess....I think this is the brush. Anyone ever use it?

Looks like a Badger. Probably can be treated as such as well. One thing you can be usre of, though:

It's guaranteed for life. And I mean LIFE. One of the mechanics I used to deal with had a ratchet that his dad bought in the 50s. It broke -- and they fixed it for free.
