Every time I use my airbrush I clean it after using a cheap ultrasonic cleaner that I have.  Some airbrushes are a pain to disassemble, others not so much.  Thankfully, my Paasche and Iwata are both reasonably easy.  Never a problem!

a. check the needle tip. rub it down with some fine grade wet & dry paper. it may not be needle sharp, it may have a slight kink in the very tip

b. clean out the nozzle cups, there maybe a speck in there.

It doesn't take much to make a spray brush go wonky.

Thanks, I will give the sand paper on the needle a try.  The cup seems pretty clean.

also clean the nozzle cups at the nose. You should have two; an outer and an inner one. One of my airbrushes was splattering and I got out of the inner one a speck the size of this  . which was the problem. Get a a set of the fine airbrush cleaning brushes. They are worth the couple of $$ they cost

What price can you afford? If I had a guide on that I could recommend something
