Hi Joel, from a DIY/Hobby painters point of view I'm amazed how you get each substrate on without issues, the sealer, base and clear just looks perfect every time where I have to work for it to get a good finish but I recon a lot of that is down to having a good environment and booth to work in and of course the fact that you are a pro painter👌 I use solvent basecoat and I find that if I leave my last coat of base to fully flash off I find that my control coat feels gritty, the only way I can stop this is to do my control coat while the final coat of base is still wet, not sure if doing it this way is ok but I don't know how else to do it, I'm using slow reducer in my base🤔thanks for any advice Joel🙏🙏👍John UK

Been a sata guy for over 20 years and have used other guns I just got the dv1 clear and I'm super impressed by the feel and controll of this gun. I spray ppg water with hs clears and it's a major difference in clear applications very user friendly.

I noticed the chips when you sprayed your reducer. Cool tip. I tried it and it works well.

What was your fan fluid and psi with the C1+ cap? I was at 20 psi fully open and I was blowing out way too much material. I had to choke the fluid down. I was spraying almost double speed to what I’m watching here

Man it must be nice to have a job where you can be relaxed and have enough time to make KZbin content. I was a painter for 27/8 years and about 20 of those years I worked flat rate like an animal, knocking out 2-300 hours a week with no prepper, no help at all. I didn’t have time to take a leak let alone make videos! If I took a lunch break it was lumping something down while I mixed paint lol Free guns are nice and all, and I do like some Devilbiss guns even though I was mostly a Sata (or whatever worked guy). I’d use that DV1 clear gun as a hammer though before I died on every job no matter how nice it sprayed. Nice “Diy” home garage gun if you’re willing to part with that much $ for one

Hello. What is the difference besides speed between C1 and C2? I have 1.2 and 1.3 in C1 and I'm wondering if it's worth buying C2?
@olie_olie_paintz23 күн бұрын
The c2 makes a huge difference! The air cap alone will speed the gun up a lot!
@randyroe17413 ай бұрын
will the C2 air cap help the first dv1 clear coat gun and whats the best pressure with the C1 air cap i cannot find the sweet spot still too much orange peel for me and that job came out great keep up the good work thanks for any input

Nice work Olie I've been thinking about buying a DV1. I still shoot solvent but my sata shoots to dry. do you think the DV1 base will work for me?
@satamanschmidt34283 ай бұрын
The DV1 base gun is considered to be the best basecoat gun available on the market. I don't have a problem with that. My problem with this video is that the "old" and the "new" guns are EXACTLY THE SAME GUN with the "new" having graphics. I want something that's called new to actually have some technological advancement over the previous model not just a new paint job.

Was it hard to find a shop that wanted to train you to paint cars? I remember you said you didn’t go to school for it.
@olie_olie_paintz3 ай бұрын
It wasn’t that hard. Problem is you’re going to sacrifice pay for a year or so. As long as you’re aware of the sacrifice you’ll find somewhere pretty easily. You’ll start prepping first every time. If you can’t prep you can’t paint.
@nickcrill77183 ай бұрын
@@olie_olie_paintz I already prep and paint just not cars. Im willing to make the sacrifices. I just have to move first because my small town only has 3 shops and people who have been there for 10-20 years and aren’t going anywhere. lol

It's getting almost comical with all these gadget's and the new DV1 lol that gun is an okay base gun but we all know that thing is a turtle even with the c2 cap I don't know if it's I got this gun free from this company this week so I will say get one or vice versa Man when it comes down to it find a gun that fits your needs.. All this 20 Spray Guns is an absolute gimic on KZbin you know it and I know I know it I been Spaying cars for 30 years and if it still made since my Binks #7 would still be in play.. Come on man I'm looking for content not sales!!!!!

Who cares what graphics are on the gun? That's pure bullshit. Wait three years when you have to get a new battery for your DV-1's and DeVilbiss is going to charge you $125 to change the fucking battery which is insane. The new Series 2 Iwata is the same story. After 12 years they finally figured out to put a stop on the fan adjustment so that the pattern doesn't split and they finally figured out that it would be nice if the slots in the nozzle lined up with the gun body. 12 years and that's your giant advancement?

Also I’ve had my dv1 for 5 years and the original battery is still working great. I’ll take that and saving 300 over buying a sata anything lol

@@olie_olie_paintz Agreed, but they finally did get rid of the nozzle gasket with the X5500. They now have a metal to metal seal like the Sagola (my favorite) and Iwata. I've never understood why DeVilbiss still needs to use the gasket when clearly they have CNC machining centers that should be able to make a metal to metal seal. Don't be mislead by my screen name. I'm a Sagola man now rather than SATA since SATA went goofy with their pricing about 10 years ago. My most recent SATA gun is an Nr2000 which frankly I think is as good as any of their subsequent models.
