Get rid if tittytalk and just use the mobile friendly browser version, I got rid cos it woke me up every night.
Mate i cant deal with change im used to tittytalk altho it does play up every now n then
Thank you very much for that,just finished with it and it's 100% better,won't be lubeing that again.I found my H&S brushes work best with no lube on valve stem, it tends to gum up. Take off the valve stem and remove the brass plate on the bottom. Be careful not to drop the valve stem or spring. At the top, where the stem is, the there is a white Teflon seal. Clean the stem and the seal with alcohol to remove any remaining lube and it should be pretty smooth after that.
My personal preference for the valve tensions screw is very loose. I loosen mine until it is very soft, but still has enough tension for the spring to push the trigger all the way back up.
just packed up with the micron, cleaned it the way you said.Just have fun with it, I generally clean either every two hours or between colour changes, you can clean dried paint off the sides of the cup and lob that out of the cup before running your cleaner through the brush, that will avoid debris travelling down to your nozzle so that you shouldn't need to strip down for cleaning, and if you see or feel anything out of the ordinary, check with the guys here.

Think I just took a massive step backwards though,was playing on printer paper all good ,had light intensity , very fine lines etc etc.
Then went onto a decent paper and got nothing but spiders and couldn't layer up to make darker. That was with neat com art going through at really low pressure,15psi on the compressor and then turning down my Mac valve until it only just had the power to draw the paint through.

I personally can not get Com-art to spray right straight out of the bottle. No matter what size gun or at what pressure. I always reduce more. I paint below 10psi and at a reduction of at least 1:5 but sometimes as high as 1:20 at 5psi.
maybe climate
View attachment 34411 Right peeps i have just been playing with the micron, paint reduced 1:3 parts water. I seem to be able to pull fine lines and small dots,use lines loosely as there more like tadpoles. But if i try to go large dots etc and get the colour more intense it seems to take 10+ sprays or i get a lot of mottled effect, to much paint not enough drying time?
Are the darker dots on the left your own or are they just guides?
From what I see here I don't think your paint needs to be that thin, try 1:1 , but remember as I said the exercise is not about coverage, it's about precision and consistency, keep you air on all the time while you paint, turning your air off at the same time as your paint is causing your tadpoles, when your doing your dots staying in one place longer doesn't give you a bigger dot it gives you arachnaphobia, moving your brush further away gives you bigger dots.
Again as I mentioned, try pulling back less for paint you want to pull back until paint comes and then no further, the full extent of the trigger is only for blasting big areas, always have the air on before you pull for paint and don't let the air of you till you stop pulling for paint, it's more important that your strokes match in intensity that that cover, in an artwork you build up in layers and then the right amount of coverage happens automatic, that is control.
The darker dots are guides that Mitch done on one of his sheets.
I can't get mine that dark.
That paint I'm using is trans smoke, looks dark in the bottle but I just can't get it to that intensity.
I am hardly pulling back for paint,trigger is only just moving,I must admit I do lapse now and again I let the air off to soon.or start the paint before I'm moving.
I've got arachnophobia down a treat,I always seem to get the wrong things spot on and miss the objective of the excersise.
