TROUBLESHOOTING

The following are typical faults encountered during airbrush work:

1.

Grainy Spray

: Caused by the paint being too thick. Dilute the paint as 

appropriate, check the needle for dried up paint etc, check the air supply 
pressure etc.

2.

Buckling Paper

: The paint may be too thin. Add paint to thicken the 

mixture. Do not apply too heavily in one area. Move more quickly across 
the work or reduce the spray.

3.

Paint blobs at end of stroke:

 Depress the trigger before moving the airbrush 

or stopping before releasing the trigger.

4.

Flared ends: 

Caused by turning the wrist while airbrushing. The whole fore-

arm should move horizontally or vertically across the workpiece.

5.

Centipedes: 

Caused by spraying too much paint too close to the surface. 

If a fine line is desired, lightly pull back on the trigger, practice on a test 
piece first).

6.

Splattering:

 Caused by allowing the needle to snap back into the tip. 

Always release the trigger gently. Check for dried paint on the needle or 
tip.

7.

Curved stroke: 

Caused by moving the arm in an arc, too close to the 

surface. The arm should always be parallel to the work.

8.

Restricted spray:

 Can be caused by the needle being screwed in too far. 

Undo the needle sleeve a turn.

9.

Bubbles through paint cup: 

The air pressure may be too high. Adjust the 

airline regulator. The paint cup stem may be clogged.

10.

Spray cannot be shut off: 

The nozzle may be clogged. This is recognized by 

a ‘spongy’ feel when the needle is set into the nozzle. Strip and clean the 
airbrush, (see Maintenance).

11.

Spitting: 

Caused by contamination either on the needle or in the paint 

cup, the paint may be too thick.

If the airbrush motion is uneven, the paint finish will be uneven.

The most common problems are runs and sags, which are caused by one or 
more of the following:

1. Not releasing the trigger at the end of the stroke.

2. Holding the airbrush still or moving too slowly.

3. Holding the airbrush too close to the surface.

4. Arcing motion with the airbrush.
