Gravity fed! That is the best for high quality
paint jobs, topside of cars.
Small siphon is better for frame painting; fits
tight spots better, can be turned almost upside
down as needed.
Gravity fed works best with today's paints.
I do have a source for the best paint ever,
acrylic lacquer. Nonetheless, todays low
pressure applied water base color coats and
final clear coats, are fantastic with a gravity
fed gun. Maybe six to eight pounds pressure,
almost all paint ends up on the car rather
than you and everything else.
On metal flakes, most are so small they stay
well suspended in paint. Just paint fast and
shake a little now and then!
Acrylic lacquer, though, is the best paint
ever produced. It is alledged to have been
outlawed for environmental reasons. Not so.
Makers of new modern paints are a powerful
political lobby, just as is the steel pipe
industry. Lacquer is not allowed just as
copper and pvc pipes are not allowed in
many states. It is all money and politics.
Know what they didn't outlaw? Lacquer thinner.
That is the basis of acrylic lacquer banning.
The paint is transported by lacquer thinner
which they don't want in the air. Go to Home
Depot and you can buy all the lacquer thinner
you want, by the gallons.
Our lost of the best paint ever, acrylic lacquer
is nothing more than political lobbying and
increasing profit by competition elimination.
Merry Christmas to all!
