Well, thank God I stumbled apon this site. Looks like a wealth of good information here.
I recently performed my first custom flame job and I must say that I'm quite pleased with the results.
Before I started I bought an Iwata HP-CS and I used it to spray pearl highlights to the flame tips. I then sprayed thinner through the gun, then took her apart and cleaned everything again. Now my problem is that after reassembling the gun she sprays thinner as soon as I push down on the trigger. Or after I take it apart and put it back together it blows back through the cup. I've reassembled the gun about a dozen times with the same results. I've soaked the tip in thinner and blew everything out. It's spotless. I suspect an o-ring or something is my problem but I'm stumped.
What am I doin' wrong? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif
