Also, any reason to use different colors,.. other than just white?

You would use different colors to make corrections, a bunch of white dots all look the same and you can't trust memory to know which is the right dot. Also some layouts may require control marks and if they are the same color you end up painting things you shouldn't.

Most of the time you just need to bump the tip on a little better, the robot doesn't always get it on good.

If your tip keeps coming off, you have the bar set to close to the tip. Back it off a 1/8inch and that should stop it. We have had the best luck with the SW spray chalk. The tip almost never pops off.
