MAXED_OUT_RPM'S ----- Nevemind the HVLP business - its for those who need to conform to strict rules & regs ...If your in the garage painting - Just tune the gun to your liking....... Im alway tuning my guns while i paint - they are NEVER set at a specific point & left that way ......... Variations all come into play & adjustments are made accordingly..........
The best paintjobs are those with the most detail to the body work & prep before hand.... Paint is the easy part........
Start off with a lazer straight body & begin to shoot your paint..... your going to look for atomization & how well the paint is covering ..... Not too much / not too little........ keeping a good overlap & spray technique i good too......
Depending on temps wait 20 - 45 minutes between coats ....... picking out hairs & lightly sanding nibs with 800 inbetween can be done as well.........
Wait about a good hour or more depending on temps & reducers to provide the chemicals to evaporate....... Spray on your first coat of clear medium light ,,,,, Wait 20 minutes ,, follow up with a medium wet coat & allow 30+ minutes,,,, Another coat of Wet clear & more time to dry 45 minutes or so ( You will be able to check by touching a taped off area that gets alot of overspray on it , Such as windows ).......... Once Flashed off - you can do 1 more wet coat ............................................
Let car sit & dry for 15-24 hours depending on Temps/weather.......
Wetsand with 1500 to tackle the skin of clear..... You can SMELL the clear !!! Be Careful around any ridges - Stay AWAY !!!! Follow it all up again with 2000 & 2500 wetpaper & Buff that bad Boy out ..........Striving for perfection with the perfect Imperfections...
