    I've had a really really annoying weird problem, where the paint would come out in big blobs instead of a nice mist like expected. I've tried everything - air pressure lower/higher, fan adjustment tighter/bigger, adding thinner etc. but nothing would solve it. In the end, the small holes in the air cap on either side of the nozzle were plugged with old paint. After soaking in thinner and blowing out with 6 bars of compressed air, it works like a charm again. This wasn't mentioned in any of the troubleshooting videos, probably because it's so easy? So I'm leaving this here for others who might have the same problem...
    TL;DR when the gun doesn't work like it's supposed to, first thing is to really really clean it well including all the small holes.

    The hvlp gun I have that looks like this one wasn’t picking up enough paint but the vent tube was plugged and I realized something was wrong cause you unhook air hose and gun still has pressure enough to squirt out paint . Vent pipe at the 90 elbows was plugged I cleaned them will try again tomorrow

    Thank you for sharing valuable information.
    I have a SATA 5500, used to make spray outs only at the moment ( not a painter yet, still in training).
    Since yesterday, it started something strange : with the trigger half way on, jut to blow air to dry the card, the air is going in to the paint cup ( 3M single use ), literally inflating the cup like a balloon.
    What can it be the cause of this issue?

  • @4myeyes925

    Why is mine building up paint at the tip of the gun? Is it too much air? Is the fan too wide? I can’t ever get a good spray with these guns. Are you not supposed to use oil based paint with these? Everything I paint looks bad bc I can’t get a good spray. This video was helpful in other cases, but not with what I need. If my question could be answered that would be great

    • @PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo
      @PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      If its a siphon feed and not siphoning then it's a air cap issue maybe its not tight enough maybe its not a good enough air cap for the paint to siphon these would be the most common reason

    My gun requires not to exceed 50 psi. I have my compressor set anywhere from 30 - 50 and I get nowhere the same air pressure that you are getting out of your gun. Could possibly my gauge be off?

      @@blaiketillman3691 I went back and looked up my model instructions. Where it said not to exceed 50psi.. it was referring to working pressure, as in the pressure reading as the gun is spraying, and not sitting pressure, or not spraying.. I made that adjustment and it is spraying well now.

      Hi Andrew with a siphon feed (cup on bottom) this is usually due to your fluid nozzle not being tight enough, or it could be an air cap that doesn't siphon (pressure feed caps will not siphon)
