what are you using for paint
what psi?
what size paint tip?
your paint tip myst be too small, but if you are thinning your paints and it still doesn;t work I don;t know.
did you try spraying water thru the brush , does that work?
did you try adjusting the paint tip??maybe it is shut

monster makers paint is thick, it needs to be watered down with distilled water
also the paint tip should be an H paint tip, the tip you are using now will not pull latex paint thru.

acrylic Ink (or paint) mixed with latex. remember, 1/3 the latex from the paint. and then thin it out with Windex.
