Hi Folks,
Sorry if this is a dumb question but I just swapped out my 0.3mm needle and nozzle on my Chinese airbrush for their 0.5mm needle and nozzle but it didn't work! I was using 40 psi and I noticed the air pressure felt a lot weaker with the 0.5mm setup. Is it normal to have to up the air pressure if you up the needle size? I would have thought 40 psi was enough.
I had been spraying a background with my Eclipse 0.3mm and wanted to get wider coverage which is why I tried the 0.5mm for the first time. I had to give up and go back to using my Iwata HP-SBS 0.3mm which I love by the way
If my 0.5mm airbrush should spray at 40psi I'll go back and give it a strip down. If I was just being dumb and needed to up the air pressure, I'll know what to do next time.
Advice please
cheers Mel
