tony when wet sanding your clear, how do you know if you went to far or
deep and broke through to base coat. Ive recently had a bad experience when
i shot my base then i cleared and let set for 48 hours so i could tape on
it. so when i was scuffing the clear with 1000 wet i think i went do deep
in some spots because when i sprayed my pearl/intercoat it wrinkled bad.
any tips?
Orange peel means your air compressor sucks
You got to have a 10 or 5point7 air compressor
1. Primer gun setting
2. Paint gun setting
3. Clear coat gun setting
When using an HVLP spray gun , you only need a few PSI, like around 10, My
guns at work were specifically set up for using TranStar clear.
This was very helpful tutorial, thank you very much!
It’s good to have You here!
Can you get this from using a spray can ? I have a fender I’m doing and I
am using s automotive paint can.do you know a company online I can get the
arousal paint at I prefer the one with the hardener in the can.
1.What temp should my paint shop be
2.paint gun what setting number should I have it on
bottom line is the paint is laying too dry.
Great video Tony! Thanks.
spray pianting
its much easier to be orange peal free by proper gun set up . Adjusting air
pressure and your fluid tip rate . takes some practice to lay it flat but
it sure beats color sanding a buffing . Just an FYI
Excellent video Tony…..Thank you
That is one tiny fella
Looks like you no what your talking about keep it up brother .
I think you meant to write “ambient temperature”, my friend. Other than
that, great video! Keep it up!
When setting your spray gun…. do you go by the paint manufacture
recommended settings or go by feel? Still learning to do clears and using
finish 1. They recommend 8-10 psi which seems kinda low. Please advise.
Great informative video, The Nob heads on here saying “Bullshit” quite
frankly haven’t got a clue ……. Keep up the good work.
To achieve the air pressure correctly, we can adjust the air pressure
control gauge and reading the number on it.
To achieve the width spread correctly, we can adjust the spreader
adjustment valve and measure how width it is (by inch or cm).
To achieve the correct distance between gun and the surfave, we can measure
it (by inch or cm).
But how to achieve the correct fluid debit or velocity?
What is the best indication / direction in adjusting the fluid control and
how to know if the volume of the fluid’s spray is right and properly?
(whether is too much or too little?)
Activators are either temp OR speed related. A low temp activator is a
fast activator, high temp is slow.
Solvents evaporate faster in high temperatures, so you would need to use a
slower activator so it doesn’t dry too quickly.
Gun setups (tip size/PSI) and flash times are unique to the clearcoat you
are using. Always refer to the technical data sheet for the specific
product.
Yes I know this… lol. As you see I am NOT a scholar hahaha!
