Hi, my name is Zack, I’m the painter for Bangor Body Works in Pen Argyl, PA. I’m originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I have a little over six years in the industry, and I’m passionate about what I do. I have sprayed many paint lines, but am currently using PPG Aquabase and Sikkens Autowave (We have 2 mixing systems to help with color matching) for base, and Deltron DC4000 clear. I’m pretty knowledgeable about refinishing in general, and look forward to being able to contribute to this community in any way possible.
I use a Tekna Prolite (1.3, HVLP Cap) for base, and a Iwata LPH-400 (1.4, Standard Cap), or SATA 4000RP (1.3) for clear.
Welcome to the site :cheers

Sorry to bring back an old thread. Welcome to the forum. How do you like the 4000 clear? and have you used the 3000 at all? Do you use the 4000 over the autowave as well? Using both systems on a daily basis which one do you prefer? I currently use lesonal and am either switching to autowave or aquabase. Leaning more toward aquabase because the supplier is a little more reliable. I sprayed 2 cars with with aquabase, one with ppg rep and one without. I did great today on my own with a bright silver metallic. Dumped the clear a little too heavy on hood and got solvent pop, but that’s my fault.
Anyways anxious to hear how you compare both systems being you actively use both. And I’m anxious to hear about the 4000 clear. I’m experimenting with shopline jc6700 right now. It’s, in theory, a lower end product than im used to spraying, but so far I’m getting excellent results with it. My only fear is the longevity. People swear by it, but I’m not sold. I wouldn’t mind spending a few extra dollars on the 3000/4000 line of clears if they are indeed better.
Thanks
John
