Ok, I got an Iwata eclipse bcs. I'm painting model cars. I set my pressure regulator at 36 psi. I'm using Kustom Kolor paints that I bought at my local hobby shop. I shook the paint well and I used my battery powered paint mixer. I thinned the paint approx. 3-1. It's gloss white, by the way. Anyhow, I'm painting away
and suddenly here comes the clumps
. I look at my needle tip and I notice that paint is clumped up on it.
So, I took a q-tip and dipped it in thinner and wiped off the tip
, but this didn't help. I opened up the siphon paint bottle to look into it and I see that the paint is clumped up on the siphon tube
. What the heck is wrong
? Did I not thin the paint enough? This same thing happened when I tried to paint the car with Modelmaster gloss white paint, that's why I tried the Kustom Kolor.
Anybody got any suggestions?
