When I first got my Badger 175 I checked it out thoroughly, fondling it & I liked the feel. But, didn't have the hose for it & when it arrived, I hooked it up, added paint to the paint cup & went to spray & nothing! I left the cap on Ok, so I remove the cap & go to town & then I got air but no paint!! I took it apart, cleaned it & still no paint. I contacted the guy who sent it to me & ran down the problem. I was bewildered & I thought oh great, a Lemon... I go back & tinker with the gun & figured I'd bring up the manual & see what I could figure out.
I studied the diagrams & compared to the gun, there was something amiss... Come to find out the Protective cap pulls of & doesn't unscrew I had unscrewed the tip!!
I did exactly the same thing as Scott.
It was the first time I'd ever used a proper AB.
Haven't done it since.
That's the leaving the cap on, not the using an AB!

Look at it as a learning experience my friend.
I bet you won't do that again and that makes it worth it.
I was airbrushing recently and no paint was coming out. I started to freak..... then I realized I hadn't turned the compressor on.
I used to have a sergeant in the Army that would tell me "Ya gotta be 10% smarter than the equipment, airborne!"
