Wish I could get my brush to spray that nice.

I always get splatters after a little while. I clean it all the time, there is no dried paint on the end, tried differant pressures, filter on air line, but it still splatters. Brush is a Badger 150 with three different tips.

thats the same as i got but the only tip i use is the fine tip. @35 to 40 psi.
you do need to clean it a lot but if you keep up on it she works good.
i pull the needel out after each color and whip it off and clean the gun.

I've found my badger 150 is very fussy as to paint mixture.... try thinning the paint a drop of wter at a time.... eventualy you'll find the right viscosity... I can spray real fine patterens with mine, it just requires a little testing....Anothe rthing tat sometimes happens, is that the tip gets a tiny piece of dried paint on the inside, it's real hard to notice but it can be dirty and you might never even know it.
