Re: [MBZ] Rattle can paint job

If you use a HVLP paint gun... also use an air pressure regulator... a good one with a filter is best. Air pressure AT THE GUN NOZZLE TIP is what you need to control. Most folks try to run much to much pressure, which produces a "paint cloud" rather than a soft fan.. I find 25 PSI at the gun is

Re: [MBZ] Rattle can paint job

HVLP means High volume, Low Pressure, as opposed to the old type that use high pressure air to atomize the paint, and thus make smaller droplets to ride the air further. The theory behind the HVLP guns is to use a larger droplet that does not carry as far in the air. Try the HVLP gun with

Re: [MBZ] Rattle can paint job

I have a HVLP sprayer in a box on the shelf. I was afeared the thing would put out clouds of mist and speckle all the cars on the street while I tried to lay down paint. Best time of day for perfect conditions is from 0600 to 0900, before the wind picks up. That coincides with all the

I think Curt meant that he uses 2000, but one should instead begin with 800, then work to 1000/1500 before going to a final of 2000 clay > On Sep 16, 2016, at 8:27 AM, Craig via Mercedes wrote: > > On Fri, 16 Sep 2016 12:49:18 + (UTC) Curt Raymond via Mercedes >

No burnt smell, color is like new, tach shows standard RPM in the 2000-2500 range at speed. To have Delta V, the needle pops past 3000 and tops out at 4500 to climb a hill or speed up. clay > On Sep 16, 2016, at 4:31 AM, Dan Penoff via Mercedes > wrote: > > No ideas

I've done a fair amount of rattle can work on Coleman lanterns and I like to think I've gotten pretty good at it...Most of what I've done is Rustoleum but its all pretty much the same. Lately I've been working on the fender for the Golf which is nearly done, I just need to cut and polish the

Re: [MBZ] Rattle can paint job

No ideas on the paint, but I did want to address your transmission concerns. Just because you're not "rolling coal" when you stomp the pedal at speed doesn't mean the tranny is slipping. You could just be underfueling or the timing could be off a little. That being said, when you do this you
