Default paint prob

i touched on this on one of my wips in the critique section but i see it goes here.

my white paint seens to spiider out. i cannot figure out how to fix this. ive had the psi from 20 to down below 15. i have tried different reductions of the paint. ive cleaned my brush. nothing i do will correct this, it happens everytime i use white paint. oh so you know im using createx. ive had a little trouble with the black also. and they also seem to clog up my gun all the time. if anyone can help me with this i will be greatly appreciative. thanks ahead of time.

Spidering can be caused by a few factors, trigger control too much paint going down at one time, air pressure to high and or paint too thin. Changing any of those factors can eliminate the problem. I often check my white when doing detail prior to putting anything on my surface and adjust the paint and or pressure to get it spraying in the sweet zone. That bottle fed brush takes a little pressure to make it work so the first thing I would do is to thicken my paint a little and back off the trigger.

Oh and nothing wrong with your brush either that is a fine piece of machinery and a perfect match for the paints you are using.
