What happens when the airbrush seems clogged. I've cleaned it out exactly the way I supposed to and now it won't spray. In fact it bubbles up

I found there are tons of YouTube videos that show you step by step how to take it apart and clean it. Mine wasn't working at all - the toggle had no resistance and wouldn't permit the airflow to pass through the brush. My husband watched the video and took it apart and put it back together again. Tedious but definitely something anyone can repair. Not sure if your problem is from dried makeup or perhaps a Non-Dinair product, but I'm sure it can be corrected. Good luck!

When this happens, I usually take apart my airbrush and clean the needle. Just unscrew the back, remove the gold screw and pull it out. Be careful not to lose the piece that goes behind the trigger because that is what holds it in. While the needle is out I usually drop some solvent in the makeup compartment and clean it out the best I can with a q-tip. You can also unscrew the front piece (where the makeup comes out) to make sure that is clean. Worst case scenario, they sell the needles individually online. It isn't hard to take apart, clean, then put back together; just don't do it next to an open drain. ;) When this happens, I usually take apart my airbrush and clean the needle.

I haven't had this problem but I suspect it has to do with the sprayhead seal. Look in your user manual at the section about cleaning your unit. It shows pictures on how to re-seat the seal after cleaning. If the seal doesn't look damaged (worn or torn areas) try taking it out and putting it back in with care that it matches the picture format.

Make sure the spray bottle is pushed all the way down. It clicks when it is in correctly. If there is still an issue get a replacement.

Mine didn't clog, but it was pretty useless, just made the air hazy. It didn't look like "fog."

Does anyone know if the pump problem has been resolved? Was there ever really a problem, or was it always a combination of air bubbles and/or clogged needle?

I haven't had this problem but I would start with soaking the spray nozzle in hot soapy water to get rid of any build- up. Also check the end of the tube to make sure nothing is clogging it.

If talstar clogs your sprayer then this probably will too. That said you might want to switch to a bigger nozzle. You don't want to atomize this stuff, just put out a stream or mist to dry on a surface. It will minimize the amount you breathe in and maximize the effectiveness

Your is defective. I have had mine for a year and the spray is consistent we every time and use it a lot!

Sorry to be the banter of bad news, but it does sound as though you have a defective unit. The good news is you are still under warranty. Do not waste another minute; call the store where you bought it and have it returned. This device is a no brainer; you plug it up, turn it on and watch it go...the spray should work with ease and percision. Buying defective items does happen in life; sorry you had to experience that. Best wishes with everything.

Take the needle out and clean it with alcohol should clean it with alxohol after every use, sounds like you need to get different paint or thin it out. Are you usin airbrush paint? Regular face paint wont work in an airbrush machine.

I would try a little water in there and I had to do some adjusting on the tip when I first used it but once I got it adjusted we were fine. Listen for air leaks and make sure you have that tip adjusted for the right spray.

join the club! I've spent a lot of time trying to figure that out and I never did. I cleaned all the hoses and the heater. I even replaced the pump, but it still does not spray. I had only used it twice and cleaned it well before storing.

I honestly didn't get any air bubbles in mine. Just make sure that its on right and you should have no air bubbles! ^.^

Try unscrewing it and make sure it's not clogged, I've not had this problem, so I hope this works for you. My daughter loves this stuff.

In my opinion, the product that you have is defective and should be returned for replacement. Mine does not do this, but I have had the same thing happen with another brand that I used in the past. Or, is it possible that the hot air brush is too hot and needs to cool down before it restarts!! Hope this helps!!

Hi Tarie, I clean my airbrush every time after been used and I spend less than 5 minutes with warm water. But I am having a hard time to use this airbrush, I can not find the right make up, and the right way to use. I was practicing with water, and with some makeup, but did not work, I think that I was not a good idea to buy this airbrush. I do not know to use it.

Mine clogged almost instantly. It no longer sprays. I have only bought one can so whether it was a defective unit or a trend I cannot say.
