Frequently Asked Question
The needle controls paint flow by sealing against the nozzle when retracted and allowing paint through when pulled back. A perfectly straight, undamaged needle is essential for consistent spray patterns.
A bent needle causes inconsistent spray, spitting, or uneven atomisation. If you notice these issues after ruling out paint consistency or pressure problems, inspect the needle tip carefully.
Never place the assembled airbrush with the needle tip downward, handle needles gently when removing for cleaning, and avoid any lateral force on the needle tip when reinserting.
Needle sizes match nozzle sizes. A 0.3mm nozzle requires a 0.3mm needle. Always replace needle and nozzle together if either is damaged to ensure a proper seal.
