It would help to know what brand of paint you're using. There can be many reasons for this: - If you are spraying from too great a distance, the paint may be partially drying between the airbrush and the surface, causing "pebbling"
- Too high an air pressure can also cause the above
- Too high an ambient temperature when painting can cause the above
- If using acrylics, some alternative thinners can cause this. For example, when using Tamiya acrylics, though it works fine for flat paints, ethyl or denatured alcohol can take the edge off the gloss, whereas the proprietary thinner and isopropyl alcohol work fine.
