Pin point line to 2 inches is pretty good! apparently mine can do 3mm-50mm, which i thought would be ok to begin with to get the hang of it.
Cheers for the pictures, quite different from mine, but im pretty sure i can remove the needle, i think i read something about that in the instructions, and it has a photo of it disassembled.
It looks like i might be a long way off painting with it though, let alone cleaning it lol
In future i'll try avoiding cheap crap like this

it's just caused nothing but hassle.
Anyways, i'll give these pliers a try tomorrow and see if it makes any difference.
