12/5/24: Today I finished the bodywork on my doors. One door was really straight and required only a skim on a few areas. The other had previous work done so that required a quite a bit more work . Both are primed with three coats of 2k urethane prime, ready to be blocked out in the spring.

I did try the disposable cup system from HF I recently bought and it worked great. Clean up was easier but after removing and trashing the removable cup, I realized that I can’t run some lacquer thinner thru the gun, so I removed the adaptor (for the disposable cups) and screwed the original cup back on which enabled me to run thinner thru the gun.

If any ‘Bolter has this system, I would appreciate your method of cleaning.
