Reply To: Airbrush blowing but not spraying: Help needed please

[lawnor 25939xp 2]

I started taking it to bits 6-7 hours ago 🙂

Problem solved now, thank god.  Since I last posted I took it apart and cleaned it, cranked up the pressure and blasted it througn twice with no success.  On the third attempt I removed the seal in the middle of the main body again and a large (relatively speaking) lump of gunk fell out that wasn’t there earlier today when I took it out then.  After a rebuild I tested it and it felt right.  Spraying a little primer on to some card I think im getting better spray than I have in a long time.  I guess whatever is wrong has been building up for a while.  I’ve since varnished some stuff and cleaned up for the day.

Its taken most of the day but I am confident this problem is now solved and I have a working airbrush once more.  I’m keen to actually apply paint with it again and see how that feels.

I’m still interested in Ultrasonic bath recommendations and links if anyone has any.
