Your the master.... sent many a mornings and lunch breaks with earphones in watching your videos!!!! You make people feel like they can do anything!!!!!!! THis is our 1st time I don't think it is an HVLP gun just a regular paint gun from Harbor freight. I think it was $15 or $19 on sale.... we have only put on 1 coat of red. The number of coats depends on covering the rust colored primer...we will see. The paint also says to let it sit for 24 hrs before recoating... We did use the hardener which is suppose to cut down dry time but we ran out of daylight so the next coat will be tomorrow am. SO by the time you wake up in Ca I will have an update on the process. My boyfriend has NO experience with spray guns or painting. So far NO RUNS or DRIPS.. He is amazed at how easy it is to paint and so far only used 1 quart from the gallon can!!!!!! |

Looks good so far!!!
We are starting painting here today ourselves. Using urethane basecoat/clearcoat with a urethane sealer over the old paint. I have some high end painting equipment so it's a chance to use the HVLP gear again!
