[quote=”Jayson M” post=14670]Spraying sealer isn’t going to show anything,clear is what you need to try it on.The “black thingy” is called an air distribution ring.I thought there was a brass restictor up inside the handle where the air inlet is.Very interesting try some clear next.[/quote]before i cleared the test car. i took a cleaning brush and poke it up into the air hose inlet, on both guns. went straight up to the t section of the body. as far as i can tell the only difference is the air distribution rings are slightly different. like i said both had the same amount of holes, same location of those holes, the rp’s were slightly bigger. but if i’m not mistaken you should be able to remove the air distribution ring. but then that would defet the purpose.
[quote=”Underpaid Painter” post=14676]Thanks for the test lild! I love hearing about quirky gun set ups;) At least we all know what happens now! I dont blame you for ging back to the “factory” set up. I woulnt want to try an explain to my boss why my paint job is all jacked up:rofl[/quote]no problem. it seems like since i had both guns, and instead of some wasteing moneys to find out. it would be easy for me just to go ahead and do it.
one thing i have notice i have a old 1.4 tip from my exstinck 2000, thought the tip would fit, but the hole on the 3000 is too small.
guess sata makes sure that they sell guns.[quote=”Jayson M” post=14674]Well hate to say I told ya so….. Spraying at 45psi is not going to save you any material and defeats the purpose.If this swap was a go sata would have said it was a go a long time ago.The only hvlp I know that you can change to a compliant gun is the Devilbiss GTI to a Devilbiss Plus by changing the fluid tip and air cap.[/quote]
You can convert the Iwata’s. The W400 and LPH400 are the same gun body just different shades of chrome. Both use the same needle, only difference is aircap and nozzle.
How come you never tried adjusting the fliud needle and just kept upping the air pressure. The fluid adjusts with that little round turny thing at the back of the gun :whistle:
