Hi all, just wabt to know how to set up my paint gun pattern... all i have sprayed so far is one door but the pattern is very small and circular... about a golf ball size! It will take me 4eva to spray the whole car like this! I have tried to adjust the pattern knob but when i do that the paint doesnt come out very much!

Any help?

the fan should be oval widest point to the centre. if your not getting enough paint out there could be a few things causing it.
is the gun a suction or gravity?

Try these
is the needle moving far enough back to allow the paint through.
is the paint too thick/for the needle size your using
have you got enough air flow from your compressor
