thanks , :grin:
I wanted to wait 5 days , but i only waited 2 , you can tell right away when sanding if its time , or by using finger nail onto tape of overspray ,depends on the temp too , but its best to wait as long as you can , so several coats can breathe out and dry , on my next cue I make im thinking of try PPG Deltron , i hear its excellent and less money , although i had a friend give me a gallon of Dupont , I had a cuemaker friend tell me id be fine because of expierience spraying cars , well its a little diffrent :smile:
thanks Tank, I used a gun that came in a $89 3 gun kit I forget the brand , pattern was 4inch or 3 inch and pressure was 28 to 33 pounds , matter of preference but read the direction on can . I do have a $500 Anest Iwata finish gun , but u don't need a pricey gun for good results,although in my opinion on my pricey gun you can feel material come out different ,less orange peel and it flows better,i had a Graco I paid $100 it worked fine bt I gave it away , as for reducer I didn't use any the chroma does not need any although u can reduce, bottom line is there are several ways to get a great finish this just happens to work for me ,oh and I did use a smaller touch up gun but did not like the feel of it ,seemed like my hand was crushing it ,on my next spray job im going to use my Anest and post pics before and after to show the amount of orange peel produced , less orange peel less sanding :smile:
