up guns to paint a plane. Results were good. However, because of
the suction, you must mix up MUCH more paint than you need to do the job, so
that the suction tube never sucks air from the mix can. Also, if you try
to paint using only a little bit of paint mix, if you tip the gun at any angle,
the suction tip will suck air and you’ll spit out plane instead of
spraying a pure mix. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

been using a Harbor Freight HVLP touch-up gun for painting my models with PPG
Concept paints. They work great. The one I use comes with a
pressure regulator. I have an in line moisture eliminator (desicant type)
that I also bought from Harbor Freight. So far after painting some ten
planes, the gun works fine. I do break down the gun after each painting
session and clean the needle, spray nozzle and interior of the gun area where
the paint enters from the cup.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>One word
of caution. Eventhough the spray gun is HLVP, the overspary gets on
everything. I paint outside under my breezeway. It is a good idea
to wear at least a air mask. I use the cartridge type. Also don't
let your cars be down wind of the spray fumes. One of my cars was parked
some 50 foot away and still managed to get some overspray on it.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

I have a compressor. I do not have a spray gun yet. From my understanding<br>
there are 2 types of guns "Standard and HPLV". Which is "better
or easier"<br>
to use?<br>

The secret is in the paint. Concept is so good you can do a great job even<br>
with a cheap external mix airbrush like the the one Harbor freight puts on<br>
sale for less than $5. If you use one of those make sure you regulate the<br>
air pressure to 20 pounds or less. Practice on old milk jugs and plastic<br>
containers. The down side is that you will have to hurry with the airbrush<br>
but the small paint container will help you keep the weight down. The paint<br>
will weigh the same in the can as it does on the airplane.<br>
Don't get the idea you can sand Concept off and do it again. Sanding Concept<br>
is something to avoid!<br>
