I don't know if you guys have Harbor Freight over there but I switched from 3M to HF knock offs you can spray upside down with them and they only $9 a box in the States
RPS is also nice to store leftover basecoat. Overall RPS is a nice system because of a clean ratio mixing cup every time you paint. You can also re-use it with a quick wash.
Hey Gunman bit off topic, I’ve been smashing your content recently as I plan to do an at home respray. I know it’s not your favourite however any chance of a walkthrough for spraying 1k at home ? From compressors, gun settings and fluid tips, technique etc? I know you have your spray acrylic video. I was just hoping for something a bit more in depth. There’s mention’s everywhere in your content eg “ 1.6 mm would be good for acrylic clear” I was hoping for an all in one. Totally get it if it’s not your jam.
best way to clean the pps outside cup is to put a sticky tape around the cup and peal off to clean of the flaky paint. around the top treads, inside and bottom are nonstick and tape will take the loose paint off. the rest you use thinner. go
Hey Gunny, I also use both the Sata RPS and the 3M PPS 2.0 cups but my favourite is the 3M ones simply due to the fact that I'm to old and senile to remember to pop the little caps on the Sata pots, I think 8 times out of 10 I will forget to do it and it really does my nut in😂 Man you are paying one hell of a price for your disposable cup down in Aus as they are around £60-£80 here in the UK🤔👍John UK
he looks and sounds a bit extra happy in this video. Maybe itits the new workshop, painting the tornana, things just fa\lling into place. All good man, keep painting shit!
Have you used the DeKups system? It is similar to the 3M where you get liners and liner caps that let you spray upside down, but the hard cup and cover are separate and always reusable. There are no markings on the liners or hard cup so you need to use standard mixing cups. Depending where you get them, the 3M 28oz are about $3.60 USD each and the DeKups 34 oz are around $2.80 USD each plus a 2 pack of the hard cup and cover are $32 USD. The first DeKups 32 pack of liners and 2 hard cups to get started are about $3.80 ea, but the next 32 pack of liners without new hard cups is $2.80 ea so a bit less than the 3M. I have been using the DeKups system and like them, but I am not 100% sold on DeKups. I started using them with my FLG-4 and a 24oz starter kit with the adapter, but have upgraded to DV1 base and clear guns, which came with adapters instead of fixed cups.
good video, what gun gives the best finish without orange peal ? asked on different video. Also do you ever use single stage ? I am in Race car industry and sometimes I use single stage for speed.
