If you are looking for a course that will teach you the on spray paint guns, then you are in luck. You will find a DVD course that teaches you the 101 on spray paint guns and much more. You will also learn everything you need to know in order to paint a car like a professional. No longer will you be held hostage by the high prices of auto body shops. The following tips should impress upon you the basics of using your spray paint gun.
You will have the choice of renting or buying a spray paint gun. Many auto body shops and stores will rent out their professional guns. Make sure to thoroughly inspect any gun you plan on renting as you do not know where it has been and how often it has been used. If you plan on making painting cars your profession or have a lot of auto body work to do, you will likely want to purchase your own gun. While there are many models of spray paint gun available with prices ranging from very expensive to dirt cheap, it is best to invest in a high quality model manufactured by a reputable company. These will often last much longer and be more reliable than cheaper models.
Then your gun will require an air compressor. Make sure to use a clean and dry source of air as any dirt or debris particles will end up in your paint. You will also want to make sure to apply your paint at the right PSI setting. This will be labeled on your paint. Not doing so can ruin your new coats.
Want To Learn a Little About Automotive Spray Paint Guns HVLP Spray Guns & Siphon Style Guns?
See, back in the day the most common paint guns used were all siphon style guns. You know, like the gun that was talked about in this video above with the cup actually below the spray nozzle. They worked great but they were not the most efficient guns in the market.
As time went on a new style of gun came out which was called the HVLP gravity feed gun. Gravity feed basically means (gravity pulls the paint down into the neck of the gun). The nozzle and air cap pressure ratios were reinvented to be very efficient using less paint and having much less over spray.
Now we have disposable cups like the DeVILBISS DeKUPS for the HVLP spray guns. This is NOT a necessary upgrade, but it makes cleaning much easier.
Disposable Paint Cups
I will be doing a live video review on these kups very soon so be on the lookout for it.
When they first came out I thought who would waist money and buy these things but as time went on I found myself buying them and actually using them on occasion.
You can mix paint in them because they are clear which makes measuring easy, plus they can also be cleaned and used a few times before tossing them out.
Not only do they fit their own line DeVilbiss but they sell adapters for most of the common guns like SATA and Iwata. I m sure the adapters will fit most 99% of guns as the threads are mostly the same.
In all, if you re planning to get into automotive painting and graphic design you may want to look into a HVLP (high volume low pressure) spray gun and perhaps even get a DeKups starter kit which includes a bunch of kups and accessories to get started with the system for under $25.00.
I will soon post a link here for you to fund the best places to get them online and possibly with FREE shipping to your door.
