In fact my parts did arrive today and I'm up and running again, the delayed AWI are now primed and ready for paint.

Ouch! Glad you've managed to sort out the probs.
ReplyDeleteWhat needle size are you using? I originally tried putting Vallejo primer through a 0.3, but spent more time clearing blockages than actually priming so I switched to a 0.5 which helped immensely.
Mostly I stick to the 0.5, which is fine for most of the work I do with it. Its so picky about the paint with the 0.3 needle that I only use that if I'm using airbrush paint like Vallejo Model Air, Ammo or Badger. The paint has to be free of any debris with that small a needle. For priming and large area base coats the 0.5 is all you really need. The 0.3 is nice for smaller camo jobs but only if you are using the right paint!
