dirty they didn't used to be 10 years ago it was really rare that you would get debris in these things now these things are getting clogged halfway through a day spraying if you're spraying all day long clean these things every single day if you don't clean them they'll get so compacted and this has happened to me they'll get so compacted with debris um there'll be so much pressure built um up inside here and it's forcing the paint to get down there it'll split this mesh right open and then the paint will bypass the filter it will ruin the filter and you're gonna have to buy a new filter change these things every day the filters themselves too oem filters are not cheap um bedford does once again bedford makes uh uh products too and that are filters too that are 40 somewhere around 30
