i done it that way in the old booth nick
i could get normal temp in the room but i would never say it was baking temp and its a big ass diesel burner too!
from what i understand its panel temp not the room temp ? i get the room to around 70-80 degrees c …
i did think of ducting it through the inlet fan pushing it through the inlet filers but thought they may catch fire lol
any input would be great

[quote=”ding” post=24812]I am using a Sata 3000rp. No matter what I do the paint always comes out too flat. I have tried a 1.2 tip and a 1.4 tip. I have a 1.3 tip on the way. I dont know what I am doing wrong, but every car I paint turns out looking like an austin martin. This is just completely unacceptable to me, especially when I am trying to paint a Cadillac. I have spent almost $1000 between the gun and the nozzles. Is there any special way to set this up so I get that that grapefruit type texture I am trying to match, or should I just suck it up and buy an iwata :blush:[/quote]
i like this one lol
to get peel
drop pressure
do a mist coat of clear as your first coat then a full after flash
or yeh buy an iwata ! prob a supernova :rofl
Yes sorry more water based products but also clears
my clear was coming out thick …when i spoke to my rep he said prob to cold and i think he is right
i will try it at room temp and see if it sprays better

[quote=”nick@dunsdale” post=23834]hi tommy
been using Lesonal WB since 2006, it is okay, the only thing i dont like is any base imperfections have to be flatted dry.
If you put anything wet on the base it just goes to mush, and the base has to be pretty well dired before you can flat it dry.
I used to use spies witch you could flat with panelwipe witch was pretty handy.
Lesonal is okay has it good points and bad points like most makes.
Who is your supplier is it Brian from Caralac[/quote]
Yes brian well mainly allan the tech …offering training etc for the debeer range..realy helpfull guys and allan realy knows his stuff !
how do you know brian dose he get lost and end up in your town??? :whistle:
