[@AnestIwataRefinish]

That's great, glad to hear you're enjoying the series 2!

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

I have the series 1 LS400 and I love it , I can imagine how spectacular the new series 2 will be , yes I’m drooling

[@miauzkater6745]

you must try the sr2, so much better than the first sr1

[@watchthisspacecarchannel6523]

@@miauzkater6745 it’s not released here and I won’t be able to afford it anyhow , I’m hoping it will make the series one cheaper, because I only have the LS 400 but would very much like a WS400

[@brucebartlett1950]

Been using the ls 400 just ordered the nova pro .

Sikkens gallon clear kit at $1k- that overspray is practically gold.

[@robertbrown3291]

Thanks for a excellent review and demonstration on the guns very well explained thanks buddy , ok you can send me my free gun now 😉 lol

[@joshhunter935]

Just waiting for them both to become available in the U.S.

[@Juliopaints]

Of course they wouldn't reply as to when it would come available 🙄

[@jeremyoetken2094]

Long wait

[@tombair1401]

I wish they would sell them in the us I can only find series 1

[@Kbp976]

Tony You never painted when you came to lti😮

[@fernandoeche9422]

Donde puedo pedir el kit completo por favor

[@ANDY-we7mr]

Yes Tony 👍 whats the difference between the blue cap obs 1.3 and the green cap 1.3 ET

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Hi, WS-400 BASE (Blue cap) I predominantly designed for wet-on-wet basecoat applications. LS-400 BASE (Green Cap) is designed for both water-borne and solvent-based basecoat applications! We do have recommendation charts on our website to help you find the correct setups! Check here for more information: www.anest-iwata-coating.com/en/microsite/ Thanks!

[@robsolano5626]

What if I use LS400 1.4 for clear?

[@Van-du8uz]

Which one of this would be best for spraying lacquer on wood cabinets? And where can I buy it in the US?

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

So depending on the material you are using - For most clearcoats/lacquer we are almost always going to recommend Series 2 WS-400 Clear! Depending on your budget there will be a gun that fits your needs, we recommend discussing this with your local sales branch. Thanks

[@HackMasterBlaster]

How can I demo these in the US?

[@velimir4o]

Even a child can do the lacquer with autowave 2.0 .It's will be useful if you demonstrate it with some hard to spray UHS lacquer. Thanks.

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

We used Autowave 2.0 because we filmed this at AkzoNobel. The Series 2 features multiple recommendations for multiple brands.

[@3n1fss]

When are these guns available in the states?

[@richarddupree8720]

Waiting on them to come to the US. Sprays PPG Water at work, and PPG Solvet at Side work. Is 1.3 ET good for both?

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Hi, we have recommendations for PPG products on our website, (Look for recommendation charts) this should give you the information you need: www.anest-iwata-coating.com/en/microsite/

[@bigdano957]

What are the differences between the new series 2 LS400 and WS400 OBS for waterbourne basecoat. I felt like the old Ws400 series 1 OBS was less suited for the job compared too the ls400 for base , is this the same case for series 2?

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Hi, so typically LS-400 and WS-400 BASE are used for very different paint technologies. Some systems prefer LS-400 and some prefer WS-400 BASE. So to answer your question neither is better or worse, it depends on the set up you need for the product you are working with. For more information on our recommendations check here: www.anest-iwata-coating.com/microsite/

[@jeremyoetken2094]

@@AnestIwataRefinish which gun between the ws400 obs base or ls 400 would be better for octoral or debeer solvent basecoat? These paints aren't listed on your site

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

@@jeremyoetken2094 - For the basecoats, you've listed we would recommend LS-400. We would also suggest checking the TDS sheets and following the information provided. Thanks

[@heydudeguy]

I want to get the ls400 ws400 and the ws400 obs and hd. I also want to get different nozzle sizes needle sizes, switch bezels and colored knobs. Can you make a video explaining this? Whan fits, since no one can tell me about the series 2. And i hope the chrome on the digital Italian 2023 is better than the last edition.

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Hi, thank you for commenting - Series 2 parts are interchangeable. Series 1 and Series 2 are not compatible. Series 2 all have tailored setups, we suggest looking at our recommendation charts to find the best match for the paint system you are using. (There shouldn't be a need to swap nozzles between spray guns) Thanks Anest Iwata Refinish

[@freefromleftwing]

Nice workshop . Just would like to know the timings between base coats and clear coats !? Can I let dry the base coats completely or they need to be wet in order to apply the clear coats ? Thanks

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Between Wet, Immediate, and Drop Coats there is a flash-off between 3-5 minutes! Before the clear coat stage, Allow for a minimum of 15 minutes of final flash-off time at 20°C before clearcoat application!

[@freefromleftwing]

Thanks

[@ailtonsantana3525]

Que.mascara e essa top

[@justinbeltz2448]

Is it being considered for u.s.a sales or even in the process of being approved for compliance

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

It is!

[@ocampo23able]

So wich one would be best for a silver blend job for Spies Hecker water-based?

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Assuming the basecoat system is Permahyd, then you will be looking at a WS-400 BASE. For more information, you can check our website here, under the recommendation charts section: www.anest-iwata-coating.com/en/microsite/

[@ocampo23able]

@Anest Iwata Refinish thank you for responding. Well all that's left is to wait for it to come out in the U.S.

[@lsbrushnpaint5847]

Very interesting to me, because this gun my dream to work my garage, but no enouh money to buy this gun....😪. Help me😁😅

[@roberto531351]

[@AnestIwataRefinish]

Sorry but I see original LS 400 better than version 2….

[@miauzkater6745]

oh no

[@Juliopaints]

​@@miauzkater6745 original LS sucks. So it can't be any worse than that.

[@miauzkater6745]

@@Juliopaints sr2 is perfect. sr1 is crap

[@thistledewoutdoors3331]

I have both now. 2 WS & 2 LS - The series looks and feels smoother.... You can dial in your series 1 to nearly identical pattern - but then turn it out to a wider "I pattern" , when you want it to.... Series 2 definitely is more Comfortable

[@Juliopaints]

@@thistledewoutdoors3331 so it's really not that big of a difference? Like for real? Be honest bro lol

[@Juliopaints]

You keep telling everyone to look at their local branch. The gun is not available at all in the US it's all over in Australia for almost a year now but nothing for the US. That's the thanks we get for purchasing your guns for all these years. Real nice 👎

[@camerongrady4644]

hey mate we missed out as well

[@Juliopaints]

@@camerongrady4644 where are you?

[@Matchlessoriginal]

I have a feeling it's being held up by our environmental agency

What are you on about? Even to this day (MAY 2024) the series 2 is not yet sold in Australia. Get your facts right buddy.
