Just painted small section of roof which will be part of the two tone color of my recent auction purchase a GT Hawk.
Talked earlier on another thread about upgrading my paint gun inventory. I discovered after having been painting for about 50 plus year, " I started on Bicycles", that I have never had a really good spray gun. I have one now. It puts out more paint and more air at low pressure than any gun that I have ever used.
Larry Lyles a paint expert/author recommended in one of his recent articles that he was asked to test a Tekna/ DeVilbiss HVLP spray gun. He stated it was one of the best guns he'd ever used. I bought one,and now having used it totally agree. It has one air cap for base coat, (fine atomization) and another for clear, (heavy flow). I used the same input regualtor and with the same pressure setting on two guns it was amazing the extra air at the tip on the Tekna.
The big deal is the paint went on beatifully and since I do not paint daily or even monthly this really is a big deal. Even as an amature painter it helps improve eveything with great equipment.
