  1. Have you checked to see if the nut that holds the needle is tight? Like was mentioned earlier, if the nut isn't tight then the needle isn't moving when you pull the trigger. If the nut is tight then it seems your brush is clogged up. Have you tried taking it apart and cleaning it. Or soaking it in cleaner? If it's a brand new brush you might want to exchange it. It should at least spray fresh out of the box.

    I had a look inside and a nut was loose it seems to of done the trick thanks for all your help lads :D

  2. Something's either dirty or not tight enough. You could also have a bad seal in the air valve, that'll allow air to come up through the handle of the brush instead of the tip. Is the air coming from the front or back of the cup? If it's from the front, it's something either dirty or loose in the nozzle assembly. If it's from the back it's the valve.

    Pike, did you mean you tried straight water and it didn't spray?

    Yes i tried neat water still no good. the air brush is brandnew but not a name brand its my first go at it .I also have another airbrush with a 0.35 tip ad that is fine but not much good for detail
