I'm not disagreeing with any of the above info - all makes sense. Just thought I'd add a couple other thoughts. I have a badger 150 and badger 360. The 360 in particular is prone to pulsating and splatering paint. It is usually because it is dirty. Even when clean those brushes are much more finicky than my others. Shooting some of the thicker createx paints will often cause the brush to fowl up and start splattering and pulsating rather quickly. In my case I am certain that it is not related to the compressor or the varying electrical currents since I have other brushes connected to the same line and can switch to one of those and watch the paint sail out as it should. You may also want to get a magnifying glass out and examine the cone, tip etc. These parts are easily damaged and can cause some of the problems you were describing. One time I was so fed up with my 360 I almost pitched in the garbage. I had cleaned it to death and still found it was splattering paint. Upon closer examination I found a nearly microscopic crack in the cone. New cone - and all was well.
