The gun was clear as i clean it with white spirit and make sure there is no blockage.
Paint does come out of the small vent hole in the top of the paint gun.
Drip test?
Cheers Steve,
That could be it, I'll try and see what happens with a second coat.
As soon as i get another belt for me compressor cos it broke today.....grrr.
Hello,
Im in need of help with my paint spraying.
I don't know what % of thinners to mix with the black enamel paint im using and there is no guidance on the tin.
There seems to be plenty of air coming through the nozel but the paint comes out intermitently.
The spray gun is not blocked.
Does...
Here we go my link. work stopped because of time and the lack of confidence, i might get back to it once i get more practice.

Hi ttwlr,
Happy birthday mate...lol,
Its my turn soon and i'll be the big 50 also.
Im working on a Land Rover discovery and also learning a bit of welding here and there, bought myselsf a portamig which i think is quite easy to use.
I've welded a few test peices and done some alterations to me...
I found this picture on my computer it was taken during my first weld project and one of the first welds i had done with the portamig 185.
I like this pic because it shows the colour blue mauve n brown from the heat transfer
The metal dowel was welded onto a 10mm thick flat plate to make a hinge...
Hi Brightspark,
That basicaly what i did, just need more experience.
As soon as me fractured toe feels a bit better i'll give it another go but it looks like i'll be needing plenty of thinners...lol
Thanks for reply shenion,
Im more of a hands on than tech person and like to get on with the job but with these compressors you need to know about their capabilities.
All i want to do is have a compressor that is mobile and can deliver power to a range of toos like, spray gun, small blast gun...
