    1.4mm-1.8mm tip

    its pretty thick, after diluting it u should be good with a 1.8mm tip even tho specs say 2.5mm, I've seen people get a nice flow with 1.8mm and I've seen people do it with 1.4mm

    Both my guns have 1.4 I believe. I have to check and I will see if there different size tips available for it.

    well, if shipping cost for jdm part from you guys to the states are scary enough, imagine recieving a 30 pound tin drum would cost in shipping alone.
