The pressure is ok, but I cannot get what is wrong anyway. Do I have to spray between time-intervals? and how long these would be?
please note that all base colors are matte, so if you want them to be perfectly smooth and shiny you need to clearcoat them.

I use a 0.3 nozzle and it works perfect for me from scales 1/43 to 1/12. I usually thin all paints with zero thinner altough they are "prethinned". For clearcoats I thin my paint around 50/50 to get a nearly perfect smooth finish, but even then I still sand everything and polish to a high gloss finish.
