other gel coat guns use a 4 to 6 mm spray nozzle. The HGP gun says comes with 1.8 & 2.0. Does the pressure on the pot lower the size of the orifice required ? Does is have a better atomization pattern than other dump guns ?
I hate mixing, testing and cleaning up. If I have a small job, I order the gel coat spray cans from dolphinite. They'll mix custom orders from a paint chip or swatch. I heard they had some problems in the past, but my experience was recent, and no problems for me.
www.starchem.co.uk/products/masking.htm Ive used this one: www.todayshomeowner.com/video/combination-painters-tape-and-masking-film-dispenser/ Its ok, but has a slight head ache factor.
Can anybody tell me if they’ve ever sprayed gel coat, if so is it normal for it to orange peel? Is it just because the nature of gel coat to get that way or I’m not adjusting the spray gun well? I have a Fuji HVLP T75g & 3M PPS. This gel coat I sprayed is really thin, not like typical thick gel coat, sold by Lilly Ram
How many coats are you putting on? Normally 3rd coat is when orange peeling effect occurs but you will probably need at least 3 coats anyway depending on the projects you’re working on. Hope this helps
Yes it will peel. If it’s not orange peeling your doing it wrong. If you use Duratech High Gloss Additive to thin the gelcoat you will find you get little to no peel. Although, it’s quite expensive! NEVER EVER EVER use Acetone to thin, or styrene or MEK (not MEKP, that’s hardener). Only use patch aids like duratech, fast patch any spectrum or polynt patch booster. Good luck!
The disposable parts are the genius of the system. Once you're done throw it away saves time, headache, and every time you use it, it works like brand new (because it is new).
Sooo, is this made by 3M perhaps? Im not sure, dont think they mentioned it enough times. Can we have a 3M count?
I love 3m but wowwwww. Pump the brakes Bois.

You did not use a hardner ?

Is possible to put gelcoat in a surface epoxy
El gelcoat es puro o lo ligastes con acetona?
Harbor freights $15.00 spray gun works just as well, but soon they will probably be know longer available, if you catch my drift. Made in America
what psi are you spraying the gel coat?
And use your 3M work cart ,,,,,
Can anybody tell me what is the name of the cart where he unroll the paper to isolate the painting area ? Where can i find it to buy or do by myself ?

How much hardener is to be used?
Antjan46 what you use to reducer gelcoat?
2% by volume is recommended. But you can catalyze from 1-4% depending on temperature and color of gelcoat. Darker color’s require up to 4% MEKP.
Why remove the filter?
Gelcoat is to thick so it will become a blockage.
how many time does he say 3M................................
many :)
thames Ranger it's by 3m

Que referencia es esa pistola,cuánto cuesta,es urgente gracias
can Gel Coat be used on pontoon boat's wooded deck?
yes, likely will unbond itself over time... likely will crack from the flexing... but certainly it can be used on wood.
g100 dump gun better system
G100-6 seems more versatile with less disposable components

Try spraying a dump gun vertical
This is a completely mislabeled video.
That plastic gun is a joke
It's kick butt, I have the normal accu spray. Such a time saver, and sprays primer like a champ.
How gelcoat thin?
Yes
Yes
