I bought this gun and it came half assembled in a plain white box. Tried to use it with all settings and only get water to come out. No foam. Why?

Mine came the same way. Check to make sure the plastic hose is properly attached to the bottom of the spray nozzle.

You need a good deal of hose pressure. Low pressure results in little to no foam. Also, select the proper hole for siphoning soap. Karcher all-purpose car soap works well.

Hook the tubing to the bottom of the gun. For the gun there is a drawing and description under the foam of the case. Still flummoxed? You tube has airbrush assembly videos.

The foam is one time use only. Once you remove the foam pieces there's no going back. You can add to your gun... It's the taking off that's the issue.

I had the same problem... I contacted them and they replaced just the machine not the gun. They said if the gun doesn't work it's how you clean it. How did you clean your gun? I use mine for business all the time as i am a professional make up artist and so far after my husband cleaned it well it's working

This foam mattress comes in a vacuum package. This should have been evident when you opened the original package. Unless you have the equipment to do a large scale vacuum package, forget about it. just double up the mattress and tie it tight. good luck.

It's more about how much air the compressor will put out per minute. You will have to stop fairly frequently to let your setup catch up if you are painting something that is large. I have/had a set of these guns. You can't use them straight out of the box. Totally take them apart and clean all the junk out of them and take the plastic gasket, that divides the nozzle from the paint chamber, and some 800 grit sandpaper and on a flat surface, lap the gasket flat (can't remember if it's the front or back side but you'll be able to tell which one should be smooth). Mine leaked air, very badly, into the paint chamber. Every time I squeezed the trigger, you could see bubbles percolating through the paint. Lapping that hard plastic gasket stopped that. Don't expect to be able to spray a candy with these guns. The pattern(s) on mine is/are too inconsistent. I ended up buying a different gun to shoot my base/clear. Matt

You should try the rod first that came with your gun, if not you could risk opening it up or try sending it in for repair

Jesse:The kit I got was not complete but it was not per se advertised as such; although, the condition was at best fair from storing the gun wet.The Gravity Cup was not included. The siphon cup was included.Only the B and D caps were included along with 3 needles, 3 nozzles and some rebuild parts.I can't say what constitutes the full kit but the case has spots for the A and C caps along with slots for another three needle nozzle combinations. I think the gun kits also include cleaning tools and a viscosity tool.Good luck with your purchase, you may want to pay the additional $$ and go new as the gun care is such a huge factor on the condition and photos just won't show if the gun was stored wet.

I had to increase my PSI to get proper volume applying lacquer. I started out following the recommendations but that would not work for me. Certainly could be something wrong with my setup. Guns work very well and I certainly recommend for a lower priced gun.

Return it. Mine had the same problem. Its got a crappy hopup bucking that I had to change. This is a beginners airsoft weapon for casual play. Its also way overpriced. I bought the exact same one on amazon for under a hundred bucks. Anything over that and you're getting ripped off. And NEVER USE BBS LIGHTER THAN .20! it will damage your weapon.

Is yours leaking any fluids by chance? Mine started to shoot just puffs of air 90% of the time and I noticed that it had oil / grease leaking from the black plastic bit just above where the connection is on the gun. Only used it 2x, no jams, never used higher than 100 psi etc. In the process of sending it back and getting a porter-cable.

If that is happening, then the primer slide assembly is hanging up. Take it out and sand every edge with emery paper. Then clean that area and keep it free from powder flakes, primer debris, etc. Also, do not screw the primer seater punch all the way up, as it easily jams if even the slightest debris gets in it. Take it our and clean it every 50 rounds. The priming system is the only issue I have had with my Lock N Load. I have loaded well over 15,000 rounds of superb ammo with mine.

I haven't used foam in mine, but I would say be careful. The machine isn't really designed to distribute thick liquids and it may cause it to overheat. The inside is rotating bubble wands.

You can do a Partial job. Removing the spray tip, and taking a plastic bag and put it over the handle with the trigger. I believe the store time on this product is like almost a year. This last project I did, my Foam It Green was delivered in Oct, but I ran out of time to do my project. It was not done till like 6 months later, and the stuff was fine. The temps have to rite on the cylinder and the place you are doing it in for the chemicals to work properly. Go to the Foam It Green web site and they explain this on how to store. Hope this helps.

I'm no expert... but I applied the foam it at around 70 degrees and it worked ok for me. Towards the end of the job one of the canisters ran out of product before the other....The two components need to mix together to make the foam and to make it harden. If one can runs out before the other, the material coming out of the gun will not gel or make the foam hard and it just runs and drips

Unless you got a warranty slip, there is no way to get it repaired. You may want to take it to your local airsoft store and see if they can do anything or if they can refer you to anyone who can.
