    yea i thought it was because i put the base on too wet and then didnt let it flash..the temp in the booth was set to 78.. mayb it had to do with many things i was doing. like i said it was my first time spraying this system. Tomorrow there will be more time for me to work with it. I will use the tips everyone has said.. medium coats and let the base flash. too much material could have been an issue why it lifted.

    Yeah 1.4 is what ya want, Iwata LPH400 with a LV cap, LVX maybe, atomizes metallic a little better (almost preference)I would recommend, I like the Iwatas over the satas just bc of the lower pressure used to spray. Your only at 16 at the inlet. Where are you ? What’s your weather ? Regardless ur50 is golden unless its real hot where you are, medium wet coats. Flash shouldn’t be more than 3-5 minutes, unless like u said u were just applying to much product. You said mid coat, was your first color a tri coat ?

    Havent been up to date because of the new job. Staying late to catch up with the new pace of the shop and get the rhythm. I can say four days into the job and say the Diamont isnt bad at all, very easy to shoot once you get the pace of it. I had no issues with it at all, the color matching is way better than Dupont, just a different steps.. still using the 1.3 sata but will change it once i get really comfortable with everything.
