Vett I think I may have found the problem, when I took it apart I think the nozzle was cracked bucause when I went to put it back it fell apart an i didn't tighten it at all so I guess I need a new airbrush.

Sorry to hear that, those tips are very fragile on the Chinese airbrushes. You just kind of snug them down holding your breath lol. But I think you can buy a needle and tip set for those, I know I saw them someplace ( Ebay, TCP Global or Amazon maybe). Course there are way more reliable airbrushes out there you could get started with.
Glad you found the problem.

I'll give it a try, thanks
Vett It's a zeny same as master. I just took it apart the o ring is there so I took elec. Tape and wrapped it around the two front joints so no air could be sucked in and still the same thing. As for the paint it was thin I even tried spraying windex still bubbles

It's most likely a seal leak at the nozzle tip ( the tiny little tip the needle protrudes out through. Take it off, wax the seal and thread with bees wax or lip balm, put it back together and try it then with just plain water or something thin. That would be the typical culprit on most airbrushes including yours. On those China made jobbers some folks toss that tiny O ring in there and just go with bees wax, works great.
A tune up tip on that brush is to also polish the needles. I did that on a Ganzton which is just another iteration a bit more fancy. It does refine the atomization, fwiw, and so simple to do.
I agree with Greg. So let us know the make and model you have, that we can better help you.
Often paint spatter is too thick a paint mix though.
Vett Hi I am new to airbrushing and just can't get it right. First why am I getting bubbles in my cup when I try to spray, the sir rush is clean but I get bubbles in my paint cup and the paint just splatters.

If you're getting bubbles in your cup, you're getting backflow from a leak somewhere. Check to make sure the head/nozzle assemblies are tight with no obstructions, and that you're not missing an o-ring or seal that's supposed to be in place.
Just as a friendly suggestion...any time you raise an equipment issue such as this, it helps if you outline what brand/model of equipment you're using. That way those with direct experience of the type may be able to offer more useful suggestions and advice.
