around NUMBER_TOKEN. however on my old airbrush i cranked it up to NUMBER_TOKEN for even thin paint so every airbrush every compressor is unique so be sure to play around with yours the nozzle is clogged if cleaning a tip of your needle doesn't work the next thing to check is to see if your nozzle is clogged as the paint dries on your needle tip it can back up and begin to dry in your nozzle as well this is again a simple fix just unassemble your airbrush pour cleaning solution into the nozzle and take a small nozzle pin and begin to scrape away the debris don't push your pin too hard out the end of the nozzle bending or ripping the nozzle tip will ruin it requiring a replacement sometimes even the above doesn't help if you need it you can also try using needle lube needle loop helps temporarily cover the imperfections of your needle that paint can adhere to problem NUMBER_TOKEN paint spatters in spider webs though certainly less common that our first problem this problem can be just as frustrating and annoying over thin paint in too high of a psi the opposite of using too thick of paint splatters and spider webs could be caused by using paint that is too thin or using a psi that is too high when the psi is too high for your paint consistency it causes the particles of your paint to break apart before they have the chance to bond with the surface you are painting if you mix your own paint this can be fixed by simply adding more paint to your mixture if you are specifically working with thinner paints like diluted inks try turning your psi lower something closer to NUMBER_TOKEN. the second most likely option is that you are too close to your surface and or not moving your brush as you paint like using too high of a psi spraying too close or not moving your brush doesn't allow the particles the time they need to properly adhere to your model i usually spray several inches away from my model however holding the brush this far away causes a wider spray pattern if you want to only paint a particular area instead of holding the brush very close to the model try using silly putty or liquid mask to cover areas you don't want painted otherwise if you do want to be that close to the model try lowering your psi as for movement i move my brush in a circular motion problem three gun spits water or paint randomly or it spits water when i only hold down the trigger if your gun sprays water when pushing down the trigger or suddenly spurts out ruining the paint you've already applied then you need to empty the water trap on your compressor as your compressor works humidity builds up and the water traps so that water doesn't spray out of your gun if the trap is full that really important step doesn't happen luckily it's an easy fix push the button on your water trap to remove excess water make sure your compressor is on if there is still water in the water trap unscrew the trap and allow it to air dry if there is water already in your hose unscrew the hose and let it dry out overnight let's talk about this week's sponsor into the am i'm a jeans and a t-shirt kind of gal as i think most painters are and when i'm working i want to wear something comfortable and that's
