Sounds like the air pressure was off, or the paint was drying too quick. What kind of reducer you using? If it's hot where you are like it is here, get some slow drying reducer. I always use an old style gun, and run it at 40psi. If you're using an HVLP gun, I have no idea.This is the paint job from hell, my first go the gun started spitting halfway through so I had to strip the passenger side and tailgate back down, bought more and am waiting for the rain to stop at night so I can finish. Spent more than I would like on paint so however it comes out this time it'll stay. But the flat black looks bad ass, hopefully have some pictures soon.
Spitting? Sure it's not moisture in the air supply lines? Condensate can collect in an air line that's laying on a cooler floor. The smaller the compressor the more it runs the bigger the moisture problem in the air is. Are you straining the paint either through strainers or 3M type disposable cups? Those little tiny disposable ball type air line filters aren't really all that effective but better than nothing. A wore out compressor that's passing oil into the air tank can also wreck your day when it comes to paint work. The gun balls will collect moisture until they're saturated and then spray water through the gun like a garden hose.This is the paint job from hell, my first go the gun started spitting halfway through so I had to strip the passenger side and tailgate back down, bought more and am waiting for the rain to stop at night so I can finish.

I will also be needing a filter for when I paint Stitch. @Hipster if you have a link of any sort it did not work correctly.
Like he said it sounds like a moisture problem with-in the lines.
I am probably going to do one mounted to the wall by my hose reel as well as one attached to my paint gun too. I am worried about moisture getting into my paint.Robot or human?

Try this one, This filter is made in a couple different versions depending on air line hook ups, Motorguard M-30 I think Is the one you can attach an air hose directly to.
the motorguard has a bracket where you can mount it on a wall. The motorguard is the best thing I have found short of a multi-stage setup or refrigerated air drying. It's a diy get you by solution. But a I have said I only use it while painting with an air hose that's dedicated to the filter. Taking an old oily hose full of condensate and putting it in front of filter does no good.I am probably going to do one mounted to the wall by my hose reel as well as one attached to my paint gun too.
