I've read in a few different places that you should never use the same gun to shoot paint that you used to shoot primer.
Why is that?
Is it really that big a deal?

It really isn't the gun its the needle and the cap that you need to change. Primer needs a bigger tip
1.5-1.7 to properly atomize the primer and spray right. Although you can get away without it.

The same has to do with the paint 1.3 for Base
Clear and 1.5 for single stage paints.

But as I said you can get away without doing that way. Just means you need to open up the materials almost all the way to get a good coat for the primer and single stage.

you can do anything you want as long as you have an O [censored] man in case you mess up
