[IMG]http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e25/nexson1/3rd%20album/5.jpg[/IMG]Thanks Ben for clearing (no pun intended) that up
man, you weren’t lying when you said it was 12 degrees when i called you today.
Thanks Painter, I never really experienced any die back problems to be honest, I guess I am not painting on a large enough scale to run into those problems, but with dc3000, im in and around 5 minutes flash time and it is good to go.
Yea, I understand what your saying right there.
As for the second coat, I have been told wait for hand slick and then I have been told wait for tacky (like the backside of a piece of tape, not stringly like you said) and I was just confused as to which one to use.
Thanks Jayson, I really apperciate it, this is what the forum is all about; to apply the knowledge given by others.
I took what you mentioned to me the other night and thought about it. About how to move quick and get it on, and then go back and see if you have any dry spots. That worked much better for me, rather thing trying to lay it all on at once (more wet) and risk running it.
Thanks for the replies fellas, I posted this video, so I can get those instructional replies so once again thank you.
The mist on is a bad habbit, so I need to work on my long strokes when “blending in color”. Don’t get me wrong, I know how to properly overlap with long strokes when painting a piece that needs to be completed covered, but when it comes to blowing color into a set in area I have a bad habbit of triggering it, which is why I over-empahsized it. I was hoping something would point that out and steer me in the correct direction, so thanks!
Jayson stated even that I was putting my basecoat on to dry and to open up my fluid to around three turns as I am out around 2.25 now. That is something I will correct as well. I just freak out when it is going on too wet because i don’t want to get nibs in the base.
Nelson, I am getting two more high powered fans which will help out alot, they will replace my remaining two box fans (been safe so far), its pretty cool to see the overspray move across the booth, but that lip is as big as you want to paint in there. A bumper is pushing it.
I was fixing some scratches, using the same exact paint used to paint it before the scratches, scratches were only in the area i painted.
I fill a mixing quart sized container up half way with thinner, and then break down my gun to the fullest, let it soak with thinner and then blow it out. This works because I do it every single time so i dont need to scrub out any paint. No build it.
I have the time to break the gun down.
Nice Bondo!
Honda Accord Sedan?
OT: Ryan, check your PM, I owe you!
