If thicker pigments or lubrication is your issue load the machine with a larger mag in an open or shovel tipped tube and lubricate the end with soap and water where you get metal on metal contact, if the machine does not slow over time with only intermediate reapplication of soap and water, then you will know thats its your pigments or on skin lube ( clean your tip regularly during tattoo). and lastly i guess, make sure you are doing the regular maintenance as outlined in your machine care and instructions, not only will they run better but the parts will last much longer. hope some of these help
