rotating coupling

[wiganlad]

My rotating coupling has gone really stiff. I squirt a little oil in everytime I clean the gun but now its at the point where its really tight. Am I doing something wrong or is this common. I've had it on now about 18 months

not cleaning it properly. is it on gun or the pipe

 

[wiganlad]

Gun mate. I cant c anywhere else where it can crap inside other than where it spins. I jet it all out and and oil it. Gna have to give it some more tlc then

Try leaving it in a bucket of water over the weekend see if that dissolves the crap. There are mortar dissolver sprays that can help that arent harmful to ur equipment for a more rapid solution

Allows ur spray gun to rotate 360 without turning the pipe aswell. I think it's a must for long guns but also handy on normal size getting in a tricky spot
