Thanks all for the tips,and thanks Dlambert for the feedback on the ws400. Your work looks great. I’ve been experimenting with different hardeners and viscosities. The 16252 seems too slow to me. Maybe I don’t have the airflow that you guys do. I also don’t have a bake booth so everything must airdry.
Dlambert, I agree all colors behave differently. My question was rather vague. More specifically light metallics with silver dollar flake have given me some trouble by looking darker on the sidetone or flop near the end of the blend. I assume it’s caused by the flake laying incorrectly in this area. Applicator error, I’m sure, but I haven’t been able to figure it out. I even had one of my jobbers techs come in to show me how it’s done. IMO his looked worse than mine have. His response was “the customer will never see that”, maybe not but I’m still not ok with it. Thanks again, you’ve been very helpful
Thanks for the info guys. I will try the premium clear. Also for any of you using solvent base, what is your preferred method of blending? Do you add reducer or colorless for your final coat? I’ve spoke with two reps and got two totally different answers.
Thanks for the reply. I can get decent results with w400lv. I tried 1.3 and 1.4fn. 1.3 seemed to break it up better but I felt it was slow and had to work at it too much. I’d like to hear how the ws400 hd 1.3 works out for you as that’s the exact gun I’ve been considering but am unsure if I should get standard 1.3 or hd version.
