Let’s look at some common airbrush problems and some easy fixes that might require just some elbow grease or a spare part.

• No air comes out of the airbrush gun. Assuming that you already disconnected the air line from the brush and checked that the compressor has a bountiful supply of air, there may be some other issues that you can check. The trigger mechanism on the brush can be challenging to install. Make sure that yours is installed properly. Remove the head assembly and you will see a small hole in the main body. This is where air should come out when the trigger of the gun is pressed. If air comes out, then the issue may be that something is clogging the head assembly – and if you’re lucky, then it is not dried paint. If there is dried paint there, then you will need to soak the body in some airbrush cleaner or paint thinner to soften it – and hopefully it can then be blown out.
• The trigger of the airbrush gun sticks. While a bit of airbrush lubricant may provide a fast fix for this problem, if paint residue has found its way through the air valve assembly, then you may have a problem with the needle bearing. This can be that you are pulling the needle out while paint is still on the brush, or that your needle bearing is leaking.
• Air comes out, but paint doesn’t. This can be caused by a paint clog. Another possible problem can be that you haven’t tightened the needle lock nut. Be sure that there is a vent hole in the cap of your paint cup lid or siphon bottle. If there’s not, then a vacuum will be formed and this will stop the paint from flowing properly.
• Bad spray patterns and paint spatters. This is often the result of a bent needle or sometimes a cracked nozzle. A simple spare part can save the day in this instance.
