Spider webs with Mr. Hobby Paints... :(

doh

so i finally have some free time to work on my s2000.. i load some Mr. Surfacer 1000 into my Airbrush and spray... minor problems at first with low pressure... upped the pressure, sprays fine now. If I modulate my airbrush slighty to spray, i'll get spider webs forming on the parts.

Should i thin Mr. Surfacer 1000?
Should i start spraying off the part and move across it with one pass?

I think it might be the way i'm using my airbrush. Like for small parts i'll maybe just stay in one spot , open the airbrush a little and paint... not like the way i would do a body..

this is my first time using lacquer paints through the airbrush.. so maybe i've to use a diff tecnique that i use with tamiya acrylics..

Also happens a little when i use Mr. Color with Mr. Levelling Thinner.

any thoughts?
