I Just Bought A Brand New Badger 155 Airbrush It Is A Two Stage And The First Time I Used It Every Thing Flowed Fine. When I Was Done I Cleaned It Very Good And Then I Went To Use It Again And It Doesn't Spray Smooth It Sprays In A Splatter Every Couple Seconds And It Only Does It When The Paint Jar Is Attached And Yes I Am Running Off A Comppressor Not The Little Cans. My Other Problem Is It Sprays This Stuff Out Of It Sort Of Like Cob Webs Any One Know What That Is And How Do I Stop It.

make sure that the nozzle and cap are screwed in all the way(should be just above or @ finger tight). Some air may be leaking arround it.

It sounds like your paint is to thick you need to thin out your paint.

I've seen a lot of that with Pactra at higher pressures. Are you thinning the paint, or shooting straight? Also, at what pressure?

yes i am shooting it straight and general psi is about 20

paint is too thick when you get webs!

155 likes about 1 part thinner, 2 parts paint. Forget about shooting acrylic w/o a larger nozzle. I usually spray @ 35 psi with Pactra, higher with acrylic.

I'm certainly no expert, but I've been told that it should be about the consistency of milk.

I changed to Fastkolor and spray just as it comes out of the bottle at about 40psi from a full size compressor. I'll never go back to other paints personally.

Webs = too thick as mentioned above. Thin it out a bit with a compatible thinner.

thin your paint and use windex to clean acrylics the amonia works great

That what I was told to do by a pro!!!

You right! You want the consistency of milk.:thumbsup:
