Default RE: Airbursh Painting Question

Unfortunately, this is common when using Pactra paints. The problem lies in the thinner used. You have to use a good quality thinner. M.E.K works best. If the solvent used to thin the paint dries too fast, you'll get flecks. If you don't use the paint fast enough, or don't keep it mixed, this problem can happen. Keep the paint moving. Only put enough in the AB cup to shoot one coat. Shake the paint before filling the AB cup or spraying. Also, if the paint isn't thinned enough, this can happen.
