Default "Orange" brand gun...

Have an "orange" brand gun?.. with crappy, inconstant flow?.... try this.. remove the cup.. if the air inlet hole is pointed into the gasket.. rotate it around 180*... it works like a champ if you do....

I've also followed the advise of someone else on this forum by drilling 1/8" holes 90 degrees to the original hole. Much better fluidization. Goes through powder a little bit quicker, but definately a better mist of powder.

i though about adding an extra hole.. but decided to try it just rotated first.. i actually had to drop the regulator psi to about 6lbs 'cause the flow was strong.. but i moved it back to 10psi and used the regulator in the handle.. just in case i needed the boost i could just twist it up...
