  If your Rockler Paint Sprayer has little to no material flow, several factors could be the cause. The needle or pickup tube might be clogged, requiring cleaning. The material flow setting could be too low, so try increasing it. A loose pickup tube should be removed and replaced tightly. Ensure there's pressure build-up in the container by tightening it. A clogged air filter requires changing. Lastly, the spray material might be too thick and need thinning.

  If the spray pattern of your Rockler Paint Sprayer is too thick, resulting in runs and sags, the issue could stem from several causes. First, the material flow setting might be too high, so decreasing it is advisable. You might be applying too much material, in which case adjusting the material flow or increasing the movement of the spray gun is recommended. A clogged needle or air filter can also cause this, so cleaning the needle or changing the air filter might help. Insufficient pressure build-up in the container could be another factor, which can be resolved by tightening the container. Lastly, if the spray material is too thick, thinning it could improve the spray pattern.
