JunkPile Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 Why is it that my Paasche VL airbrush occasionally allows paint to go up the needle and into the air-valve and trigger area? Help on how to avoid this problem would be appreciated.
Chillyb1 Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 The little gasket that is supposed to prevent that is, I'd say, in need of replacement.
Don Wheeler Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 The needle seal is adjustable with a small screwdriver. It is a very sensitive adjustment. The trigger assembly has to be removed to get to it. There should be a slight drag when removing and installing the needle. You can see the seal in the parts breakdown on this page. Don
JunkPile Posted June 9, 2012 Author Posted June 9, 2012 Thanks Don. That is what I call an education on the inner workings of a Paasche VL airbrush. Now if I just knew how to use it.
