Northy,
You may find this a bit vague, but you need to thin down the paints till they are the viscosity of milk. You can test this by running some drops of paint down the inside of a glass jar or similar. The drops should run quiet quickly.
99% of the time, new paint needs to be thinned down.
You can use water or some of the specialist water based thinners out there.
I just use some warm water - works fine.
It doesnt take much water - get a syringe to dose.
You only need 1.2 - 1.5 bar of pressure when the paints are this thin. Also makes the flushing of the airbrush much easier between colours.
