little tip, when you push the button down air flows thru the brush, pull the button back and now the paint flows thru the brush and out the tip. when yer done paintin release the button to the forward position so just air goes thru the brush, pause a second or two letting just air pass thru the brush/nozzle then release the button totally. a little trick I learned in school. stops from paint buildup in the nozzle. between strokes.
