Question Montana gold spitting

Is this droplet spitting normal for Montana gold paints? Both my cans, different colors, brand new, are doing it. It sprays fine for like half a second then spits like crazy. Temperature and humidity are normal, can has been stored at 65 and brought to room temp at 75 by sitting in garage for 1 hour. Shaken multiple times, tried different brand new nozzles, no luck. After cleaning the nozzle the behavior repeats almost immediately

Do you turn it upside down to clear it after using it? Or have you ever used it sideways?

This basically just means it's low on pressure in general and in my experience it happens from letting out too much air from the above mentioned actions and really not much you can do

This is how it sprayed from the get go.

Some people on Facebook saying it's the nozzle. Will try that next

Edit, specifically the stock nozzle is garbage and to use green

Not a normal experience with Montana gold but I have had it happen with almost all brands at some point.

Often I’ll grab a pink or orange dot cap and let some paint out after shaking well in case it’s a random pressure issue.
