have you guys noticed any differences in silver mottle with different paint companies? more/less? i noticed ppg has less mottle than sherwin.
I just sprayed some sw solvent on a BMW and had some mottle on the hood, however i blame myself and not the system, i should paid more attention to what it looked like before i cleared it
ya just gotta remember ta crank the fluid in with my base a good turn or 2 from what ya would shoot clear at also using the new stabilizers that have the hardner built in help 2 in my system thats trs4 the sherwin base dont like being sprayed fat 😉

New stabilizers are RHF65,75,85. Pre catalized. Replaced the BCS605,608,610 non catalized. I personaly dont like the RFH line. I too get more mottle than I think I should. I have better luck using a slower reducer. I usally spray with a sata hvlp and go about 2.5-3 turns out.
with dupont and ppg i had good luck by cutting the color 50/50 with clear base on the last coat. also helped with the blends on those tough colors
sorry i should have been more clear with my question. i was referring to sherwin AWX water base. the new additives you guys were talking about is for ulta 7000 i think
