Thread: Paint gun question?

Hey no problem, as thats what this site is for , helping others out and trying to give information that wont cost you down the line.

Yes the Binks would spray that POR 15 , but it might not be worth much afterwords , as that stuff sticks like glue to everything including you !
I highly reccomend buying a cheap paint suit, a paint head sock, and make DAMN sure you buy a 3m desposable charcoal respirator( comes in small , med. & large ) before sparying anything !!!!! its all very harmfull stuff !!!!oh and some cheap laytex gloves, you will thank me for this advice ...LOL

I would tear it down and clean it real well after spraying that stuff.
Like unscrew air cap, unscrew the materal valve and pull needle out from the back of gun( i think you might have to unscrew the trigger and drop it off to pull out needle on this model) , then unscrew the fluid nozzle ( thats the piece just behind the air cap ) and then unscrew the gun from cup , and soak it in some thinner, and get a gun cleaning kit ( not real expensive) and clean that sucker GOOD !!!!!

Just make sure its mixed like the instructions say( dont vary from them ) and use a fairly wide pattern on your gun , and then over lap each coat 50% .
Follow the curvature of the body from rockers up !Keep the gun back 8-10 inches from the panels being sprayed. ( pattern should be about 8-12 inches wide depending on the gun)
My Iwatta LVLP gun that i use for clear has a 14" pattern.
When you buy these products , ask for P-sheets as they give alot of insight on the products you just purchased. Mixture, products they are compatiable with ..ect........

Spraytech
P.S. you might buy a metal granuation(spelling?) stir stick, it makes it alot easier to mix paint .It can be cleaned and used forever as I have 5 that i have had for 6 years from PPG.
