Location: Muskoka Ontario,Canada | Not sure if I have already posted this particular tip but it's worth repeating.
Over time, our airbrush needles will become worn and scratched from cleaning and normal useage. Take a good look at the end 3rd of your needle. If it isn't like a mirror then it will tend to allow paint to build up on it and cause paint flow issues.
Take out the needle, chuck it into a high speed rotary tool. A dremel work perfectly and then put a little metal polish onto a shammy. Keep the needle spinning and draw it through the metal polish on the shammy a few times. Then buff it on the clean shammy parts and repeat until the needle shines. Be sure to keep the needle almost flat against the shammy as you don't want to blunt the point.
This should improve your spraying! Have fun.
