It does seem to take longer to dry,we noticed that when we switched to 3.5 from the 3.8.I have not used the new system but I would imagine you could improve dry times with one of the appropriate accelerators.

Not a good idea,stick to your oddball guns :p
I am very interested in your feedback on the changeover,sprayability,and any general info you have.Thanks for letting us know what happens. :cheers
You can still get HS+LV but I think only in 2pack.I never used it before so I can’t comment on it.I spray 2 pack superior with my 1.4 rp or 5000 rp between 30-35 psi wide open everything about 4″ from the surface 75% overlap moving at a good pace.The first coat us medium wet,second coat I move slower and really put it on nice.HTH
40psi Holy crap thats lots :blink: I have been using it for over a year since they quit making the 3 pack.I guess everyone is different but I find it easier to spray than the 3pack,lays out nice for me.
If you say so….
Never had the need for that,we mix paint in the cup then add the lid with the strainer and go spray.Maybe there is more crap in your brand IDK :S If you think about it the only way double straining will work is if the second one is finer than the first 😉 That seems kind of counter productive to mix in something else,strain into your cup and go,just sayin……
[quote=”smooth” post=36823][quote=”ryan999″ post=36807]Stick with the RPS cups. They do not restrict flow and you get a clean cup for every use.
You can use the 125 micron strainers for sealer, base and clear. You only need the 190 for primer. I always use 190 micron for all BTLV also.[/quote]
Really depends what paint system and strainers one is using, The PPG waterborne recommends 125 strainers with solvent glue on the screen, and the 190’s are for solvent that has waterborne glue on them, maybe Akzo isn’t like this , I’m just clarifying so no one gets confused.[/quote]
Are you talking about the paper strainers?There is no point in using them as all cup systems come with the strainers you put in the cup.Akzo does recommend 125 for for WB but its not a big deal to use them with sealer or clear,it will just strain out smaller chunks of crap.Basf suggests 190 for WB so again like you said it depends on the system used.
[quote=”smooth” post=36820][quote=”hating-painting” post=36805]Why are you guys using the metal cups for sealer and clear?
Feeling the screen in the pps cups are too restrictive?[/quote]For my situation it’s cheaper, comes down to cost.[/quote]
Actually its not,think about the labour per 1 gun cleaning session and the solvent.Or you fill a disposable cup then throw it out when your done.The disposable cups are cheaper in the long run,add up how many sessions per day,week,year and the disposable systems are cheaper.

The other painter seems to think that we will save money that way 😛 But if you add up the labor per cleaning session and the solvent I’m sure its cheaper in the long run.I have also heard the liner systems can restrict flow somewhat and when you are close to being empty the vacuum will suck crap through the filter.Any truth to this???
Thank you for all the replies,very good feedback.When you work in a big production shop using 3 different guns per job(sealer base clear) doing even 5 jobs a day I clean guns +cans 15 times a day.I’m getting a little tired of it :deadhorse We have the sata cups already so we might just get the 190 micron filters and keep everything the same.But the 3m system is a bit cheaper so maybe we will go that route for sealer and clear.
Thanks for the feedback Bad,the gunner cups looked interesting but not if you run the chance of fukin up your gun.I also heard sata told devilbiss to cease making them as they are a rip off of the sata cups.Anyway we will see what happens.
Looks pretty good to me Glen :rock Nice to have you back :cheers
[quote=”cstss” post=36731]I have a drawer full of 2000and 3000s ill sell to ya cheap[/quote]
If that’s directed towards me I have plenty already thanks.
[quote=”cstss” post=36724]Just wait til the 5000rp gets released to the public, it’s fast. The hvlp with a 1.3 is as fast as my 4000rp with a1.3. The 5000 rp is an animal.[/quote]
I have had one with a 1.4 for the last 3 months(Canada) and it is quick but no quicker than the 3000 or 2000rp’s…..
[quote=”cstss” post=36719]Sprayed in onyx hd a couple times, have standard and a lighter I believe. Wasn’t too bad, even if I did have to tint it, looks the same in the cup as it does on the car. That’s a definite plus.[/quote]
Yes you are lucky there,autowave is completely different when dry,makes it challenging to tint.I hope it was just an oddball color and the next ones are closer :p
