I don't know if anyone has experienced this with this tip yet but after awhile spraying, the gun will build up back pressure and hold the needle open so without warning you'll let go of the trigger but it's like you didn't. Yeah. Emergency ensues.

It's not like when you have a worn needle where it pees out when you release the trigger. It's like a ghost is holding the trigger and won't let go.

Wish I had that on video. It's funny... In hindsight.

I'm sure it's possible with other tips, I've just never had it happen before. I definitely had my pressure too high for this tip. I figured out that was the problem when I removed the guard, looked right down the barrel (so to speak) and blasted my face. Luckily most of the pressure was relieved but still. A reminder of basic safety protocol.
