    You guys are great to watch and learn. Your enthusiasm resonates. People forget this is supposed to be fun and and a life learning experience. You got be an artist , chemist and the comedian to make it in this industry. I'm a car detailer in been doing it for 27 years and always wanted to paint cars or objects I dabbled here and there help block on a couple projects and now I'm seriously taking my first car and do a full paint job on it . I watch your videos and more from other people. One thing for sure is when I watch yours I'm laughing and smiling thanks for the great work and most importantly the enthusiasm thank you Paul

    Great tutorial guys, I am going to try paining myself and the cleanup process had me worried that I wouldn't get it right. This really explained to me what I need to do.

    Fabulous video, guys, and chrystal clear! I'm just about to start out with My First Spray Gun (spraying guitars here in Holland), and my first activity has been following this vid and dismantling and remantling the gun before it even smells lacquer. I'm so glad it was so easy to follow! Thanks heaps!

    This a great video. I just bought a couple mid range HVLP guns and never really new how to properly clean the guns, since I always used the cheap harbor freight guns and didn't care much. One thing I will say. This guy need to get himself some good chemical resistant nitrile gloves like Black Mambas. That thinner just ate those cheap latex gloves up

    That thing you are cleaning at the two minute mark, I did the same thing with one of those brushed. However I don't remember being that gentle as gentle and now the gun will spray when the trigger is not engaged. I cannot get it to turn off. Any idea what I did wrong and how to fix it?

    Do you have to disassemble the aircap prior to cleaning? Noticed there's a white plastic ring inside the aircap. Safe to use thinners on all of it?

    what gun was that he was cleaning? ohh it was a walcom.. have you ever tryed the Slim model? i was thinking about buying it as a starter gun.. i want to get into painting.

  • @Dan-my6oe
    @Dan-my6oe 10 лет назад

    Say you spray on a coat of paint, and you have to let the paint dry for 10-15 min. Will the paint in the little wholes of your gun also dry? So would you need to clean it after each coat?
    Also, do you need to clean your gun when switching to a different kind of paint? Like primer to base to clear. Obviously the container will need to be cleaned, but for the rest of the gun could you just spray it onto some paper or something to clear out the old paint?
    There seems to be obvious answers for some of these, but I just want to make sure.

  • @jayg3824
    @jayg3824 11 лет назад

    so what about the thinner.. you just leave it in the gun? wont it effect the paint when you go to use the gun to spray again? or does it dry up and at that point become harmless?
