(paint comes out in

blobs).

Paint volume adjustment

is incorrect (paint is too

thick).

Add thinners to paint

and re-fill.

Adjust air regulator to

increase pressure.

Over-painting. Spray gun not clean,

resulting in needle valve

sticking.

Dismantle spray gun and

clean with paint thinners.

Too much paint. Adjust the volume

regulator to reduce paint

volume. Try spraying two

thin coats of paint.

Viscosity too low. Check the paint

viscosity using a viscosity

cup.

Orange peel or fogging. Wrong thinner used. Use different thinner.

Spray gun held wrong

distance from surface.

Hold spray gun at

different distance to the

surface.

Paint too thick. Thin the paint/test

viscosity using a viscosity

cup.

Air pressure too high. Reduce air pressure.

Rough texture as if paint

is drying before hitting

surface.

Paint is too thin.

Air pressure could be too

high.
