Lacquer thinner and some thin pieces of wire to gouge down into it. I had to take my gun apart at least 5 times to clean it during the course of sparying a bumper using Duplicolor bedliner.
Good luck.

I used the Duplicolor one and tried a Harbor Freight one, both clogged up after a while so paint as much as possible before you stop even for a minute cause once you stop, it clogs...
Lacquer thinner...

i dont know if its the same for the duplicolor but the herculiner can be thinned with xylol alcohol b/c that is what the base of it is. as far as cleaning it, acetone works pretty good as long as it hasnt hardened.
