I'll use a different can of powder next batch.

I may be only shooting textered powder if this keeps up.
oil could be coming from the compressor. try blowing air on a white piece of paper for a while and check if it gets wet or moist or if it has some oily spots on it .you can add another filter just before the gun to help .
using texture powder will only hide the problem . better to spend alittle tim to find and fix the problem then all your jobs will be better looking
