Hi

I get a problem with an Infinity harder and steinbeck airbrush.
In fact , i don't know if it's a problem or not , because it's the first time i use it.
The air flow on the airbrush exit is very low , even if i put 30 or 40 psi on the compressor . I've done a full clean up of every parts , but nothing change !
I've tried it without cap and nozzle and the air flow seems to be OK.
I don't understand anything , what can be wrong with my needle and nozzle , is there any relationship betwenn nozzle and air flow???
Did someone has already get this kind of problem with Infinity or with another airbrush .
Really don't know what to do .

Thanks

pat

I don't have the same ab, but I had the same thing happen a few days ago with one of mine. The pressure cranked up, and a feeble little bit of air coming out. I had cleaned it, but in fact that was what it was, a tiny bit of gunge in the nozzle, it really was hard to see, and I couldn't believe it would be able to affect the airflow so much, but it did. After a thorough clean, it was fine after that, maybe it is the same with your infinity,

I always had to crank the pressure way up on that airbrush to get it to work.
Try the other needle and nozzle that was with that brush see what happens.

Well , it seems to be normal, i've tried other needle and noozle 0.15 and 0.2 and it's the same. It's better with 0.4 !
Stange , it's not like this on the Evolution and all pieces are the same .

Thanks

Pat, my 2 in 1 works the same way, I think it is built into the gun that way. I kinda like it, after you use it awhile I think you might like it too.

Thanks

I like it

but was a little bit surprised by the low pressure and wanted to be sure that it is normal.
It's not a problem for me because i always thin a lot all the paints, but even HOK has to be thin a lot to get a nice flow in the infinity!

thanks
