jwest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I just bought a paint gun, I run it off of a can of air. It is the started kit from Hobby Lobby. The name of the starter kit is EZ-STARTER Airbrush Set by Paasche. Can anyone tell me how to make this work? I put thinner in the paint and it won't help. I have hose that goes from the can of air to the bottom of the gun. When I push down on the button to make it paint, no paint or air comes out. Am I missing pieces that require this to work, what am I doing wrong? What do I need to do different. Jared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 That's a single action airbrush where the air nozzle has to be adjusted to the right distance from the tip of the paint nozzle in order to draw paint through the airbrush. If no air is coming out of the hose, the puncture clamp that goes on the air bottle must not be making enough contact. Adjusting the air stream can be fairly finicky once you get air flow but if you stick with it, it should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
