Does the pump clog up? I've mixed from powder before, but it clogs the pumps up terribly.

I haven't had that problem. Have you tried shaking the contents first before spraying?

Not that I've seen, I used it on my all my bonsai trees 2 times and no buildup or clog was present.

Havent had a problem with clogging myself. You can try dipping a q-tip in alcohol and swabbing the end of the nozzle. Make sure you clean it thoroughly after every use. You may want to try a different makeup brand, or thin the make up a bit, or taking it completely apart and giving the nozzle a good cleaning.

Sounds like it needs to be cleaned. Follow the directions for cleaning that came with the pump, and go through the process twice. Good Luck! I've had the same problem after several years of use at which point the pump just seems to wear out.

I haven't had any problems with the pump and has been working great. Sometime I need to clean out the dispenser area where soap builds up but that is all. Sorry I couldn't answer your question.

I have not had any trouble with the pump spray but I prefer putting it on with a dusting rag. Sorry, I could not help with the pump spray.

Not sure about reusable pumps, but sometimes the top requires scraping off to get it to flow again. It is like the soap solidify's some on the very tip, but it does not do it all the time, maybe a couple of times a week. Not a real problem for me.

I aven't ot a clue! I wondered te same thing. I guess we will just have to contact the seller, huh. I find that the pump intake clogs up frequently. Calls for a lot of cleaning. I love it though.

Hi. Any time you start up a pump it will have some air in it, however it will flush out on its own. Unfortunately these fountains are a bit louder. Thanks!

I get the fizz, but need to give it extra pumps and increase the amount. It works fine if I do that.

Have you cleaned the pump and filter after you do you need to plug the pump in and flush the rest of duribes out not in the tank but in a bowl or pan usually this will eliminate the problem I quite using the filters because of this problem

Sometimes you have to open the back and loosen the grip on the stem. As far as clogging you may need to change whatever you are using in the sprayer. I use airbrush food coloring. If you are using it for nail polishes you can use a nail polish remover. I haven't had any clogging issues so i truly don't know what the problem is. You may need to return that machine.

So far I have pumped about 4 bottles of Jordan's Skinny Syrup through mine and so far have not had to clean it. I had another pump a couple of years ago that needed cleaned and all I did was pump warm water through it, cleaned the nozzle right out and of course the rest of the pump too. pumped it dry a couple of times then put it back in syrup bottle and it worked fine.

Yes. Their brand is water based and goes on smoothly. I since my airbrush system after each use and use alcohol or cleaner every other use. I have not experienced any clogging.

The only time I experienced what you have described was when I forgot to clean the filter once. The slimy black stuff is disgusting slimey mold. If you clean your pump housing and pump regularly I do not think you will have that problem.

The hose to the pump could be clogged. If you have pets it could be their hair. Detach the hose, get a tweezer And clear what you can reach. Blow in the hosed, sometimes sediment gets in there too. Also clear the pump opening. clean with white vinegar & water. good luck!

It will suck up a bit of sludge, but I would recommend, for longevity purpose, to try and avoid that situation. The more water in the mixture, the better results. Cleaning the pump area afterwards is recommended. The pump comes with a netting, so leaves wont pass through. I wouldn't suck up leaves, the pump chamber would most likely seize.

No it is not in powder form. It is pretty thick so I do think it can clog drains, although I had never thought about this before.
