Default gun assembly questions

Howdy all,
So I own a new Paasche VL...
While cleaning I noticed a couple of things.

1. after removing the needle, and squirting some cleaning fluid/water mixture down the needle shaft I noticed some bubbles coming out of the from inbetween the aircap and aircap body.

Did I read somewhere on the forum to use "bees wax" to seal the threads on these caps?

2. is there a specific adjustment to the needle adjustment sleeve? or is this adjusted as needed? and what is the impact of "righty tighty" and "lefty loosey". Does it move the needle forward further out the tip of the gun, and back into the body of the gun?

Seems like I have too much paint flowing....maybe I need to crank the needle adjustment down to lesson the amount of paint coming out? seems like I am getting excessive puddling. Course it could be me not moving the brush while spraying to, as I continue to work on my daggers!

thanks for any tips on these items...much appreciated!
