FAQs
What size air compressor do I need?
You need a compressor capable of supplying at least 6-11 CFM at 3-4 bar of constant pressure.
Can I use this for water-based paints?
Yes, the stainless steel construction is compatible with most modern water-based and solvent-based automotive paints.
How often should I clean the gun?
You must clean the gun immediately after every single use to prevent paint from drying inside the nozzle.
What is the difference between the 1.4mm and 2.0mm nozzles?
The 1.4mm nozzle is for thinner materials like clear coat and topcoat, while the 2.0mm nozzle is for thicker substances like primers.
Does this kit include a gauge?
Yes, it includes an air regulator that displays both PSI and kg/cm.
Troubleshooting
Sputtering spray pattern
Check the fluid nozzle for looseness, or ensure there is enough paint in the reservoir. Verify that the air pressure is at least 3 bar.
Paint drips or runs
Reduce the fluid flow by adjusting the control knob, or move the gun more quickly across the surface.
No paint is coming out
Check if the nozzle is clogged with dried paint. Disassemble and clean the fluid needle and nozzle assembly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the gun involves selecting the correct nozzle for your material and ensuring all threaded connections are tight. Connect your air hose to the inlet and use the integrated regulator to verify that your pressure is within the 43-58psi range.
For maintenance, thoroughly clean the gun immediately after each use. Disassemble the nozzle and needle using the included spanner, and use the cleaning brush to remove all paint residue from the fluid passages. Never submerge the entire gun body in solvent, as this can damage the seals. Regularly check the filter to ensure that no debris enters the spray path, which could cause sputtering or uneven application.
