While I think it was smart for you to call Aervoe and talk with them,
this Aervoe "turning pink" situation has been going on for years - not
just one or two, but a lot longer than that. This same problem is very
well documented in this list's archives.

If Aervoe says that they didn't know that they have had problems, they
must either be totally in the dark, or simply lying to protect their
product. Either way, you lose.

Go back through the list archives and look for Aervoe before you reload
that spray gun!

Their reputation for quality is worse that terrible.

You've been warned.
