working merrily away, in the zone, then snapped shut a bottle of AA whatever, put it down, and looked back at your AB job, only to find spatts of colour across it from snapping that lid shut :cry::11doh:
I'm suffering 'airbrush rage', and looking for someone to hurt :chairpg8:

Or back flush the paint gun and it really shoots out all over you and the work. Or move your airhose and water on the floor slaps up against the car. If mistakes make ya good, I'd be the best.

I have tripped over the hose and pulled the brush off my stand which in turn (bottom feed cup no cap) left a nice trail of paint up the wall and on the floor.

Yup. Been there.
Mostly on cars though. I got in the habit a long time ago that I never have paint cans or bottles near my project.
It's kind of a pain to have the paint out of reach of the project, but it saves on mishaps, as I have also had times where the cap or lid hasn't been on tight and I knocked it over, only to have paint go everywhere. :frustrated:
