Bill Byles & Randy Powell
« on: September 25, 2013, 02:29:32 PM »

  When you are using clear dope over the colors what is your thinner/dope ratio, and what pressure do you use if using a HVLP paint gun?
  The dope is Sig Lite Coat clear, and I am spraying two coats per day at 20-22 lbs at the gun.
 It was blushing yesterday, so today I added about 2% retarder.
  I am also thinning the clear 60% thinner 40% dope.

  Thanks for your advice...

Well, you'd want to shoot the clear with the humidity is somewhat down. But the mix sounds about right. Depends on the HVLP gun. I shoot mine (SATA for clear) with about 15lbs continuous.
