Paasche - MT Moisture Trap

MT Moisture Trap

Prevents water droplets from reaching your airbrush and ruining work

Moisture ruins airbrush work at the worst possible moment, sputtering paint, spotting your surface, forcing you to stop and restart. This compact inline trap intercepts condensation before it reaches your airbrush, maintaining consistent air delivery through extended sessions. At just two inches long, the unit inserts directly into standard 1/8-inch airhose without adding bulk or restricting your movement around the workspace.

Water accumulates naturally when compressed air cools, particularly during humidity or long painting sessions. The Paasche MT captures this moisture before it enters your airbrush's delicate valve system, preventing the sputter and splatter that occurs when water mixes with paint. Compatible with any airbrush brand, the trap works silently in your airline, requiring only periodic draining when condensation accumulates.

Installation takes seconds, simply disconnect your hose and insert the trap inline between compressor and airbrush. The small footprint means it stays out of your way while providing protection that becomes essential once you've experienced clean, uninterrupted airflow. Particularly valuable for detail work where consistency matters and for longer sessions where moisture buildup becomes inevitable.
