I know I should really go out and buy a book on paint spraying
but I'd be most grateful for some practical advice.
This weekend I shall be attemping to respray my car. I have a
small compressor (8 cfm, 25ltr, 2HP - yes I *know* it's too
small) and a 1.2 nozzle spray gun.
How do I set up the air and paint mixture? Do I put the
compressor on max, open the air screw right up then open the
paint screw until I get a reasonable mist or what?
How long should I wait inbetween coats? I'll be using a primer
first then the colour a few days later. It's cellulose paint
by the way.
Thanks very much for any useful hints & tips.
