Yes. When the humid air is compressed it will form micron sized water droplets that move with the air through the brush and is expelled under pressure causing a splatter effect of the paint when it contacts the subject being painted.Jon
As far as primers are concerned, I tried everything before using Badger's Stynylrez (weird name, I know) but it works. Easily the best acrylic primer I've every used through an airbrush. That is my go-to primer now.
yeah, i should probably try the moisture trap next. I don't have one. I'd never had problems before without one, but I'm in a new house with new humidity and using my same nail gun compressor. I guess I'd be surprised if there's not moisture in there. I'll try that next
I hope it's an oil less compressor as most nail guns require oil.
It would be a good idea to drain the compressor tank to if you have not done so already.
It is such a pain in the a$$ though.
But a bursting tank, due to corrosion, could be even bigger pain in the a$$.Mine is not that difficult to drain. I have my compressor sitting on a piece of plywood with casters. To drain it I simply tilt the compressor so the drain cock is on the bottom of the tank and open it. I just make it a routine task after using the compressor, before putting it away.
