Recently had a Paasche H passed over to me. It came with all the tips 1,3,5. I was looking for a good alternative to apply a medium build primer then my badger 105 with standard tip and I had read that this little single action was the ticket.
for reference the HOK KD3000 series primer I'm spraying is reduced to a medium build surfacer and the recommendations on the tech sheet state a 1.4-1.8 tip on a conventional gun.
Now the problem
It seems like the paasche H sprays the primer and clear well at first. It lays down a good wet coat. Problem is about halfway through a spray session it seems like the gun quits spraying a thick coat and i have to open up the tip more and more. I can dump the primer or liquid right back into my badger 105 and it'll finish the job for me(especially the clear).
i thought at first maybe is was material drying but i've gone as far as taking the paasche H completely apart and soaking the tips between coats and running lacquer thinner through the pickup tube and i get the same results.
Obviously i'm doing something wrong with this simple airbrush.
I'm using my small HF airbrush compressor and have the regulator set to 20-30. Normally 30 with a drop to around 20 if i hold down the nozzle to long.
