Besides the possibility of moisture in the medium already posted, it
sounds like something amiss with your supply hoses or valves. Do you
have a pressure blaster or syphon setup? With a pressure blaster you
can adjust air supply separately from medium supply. With a syphon
setup is sounds as if you aren't getting enough suction to lift the
medium to the gun. I would look for a leak in the pickup line or try
shortening it as much as possible. =20
Wet air could cause you grief, too. Do you have a moisture trap on
your air line? You shouldn't have to live with a blaster that doesn't
work right. Good luck,
