Hello,
I have an electric spray gun, it has a "turbine" in it. it has a basic switch (snap action/micro switch) with capacitor and that is about it. i would like to find a way to build in an air control function. like a speed control on the "turbine". there are some guns that have a switch for this. mine does not. i got it off ebay and dont want to send it back. it is a 230 volt plug in device. the trigger is supposed to be a "push for more power". all it really does is switch it on and slightly reduce the power, but only slightly, almost not noticable. i was thinking about a resistor or something. to lower the power of the turbine.
any help would be great thanks

More would be needed on the motor or 'mechanics'. (turbine) etc

 

Doing what you ask is I think going to cause you spray pattern problems. Doesn't this have a material(paint) adjustment knob? Or different spray head sizes? That is how most of them are.
