Im with you on that wet bed. I dont hardly ever do that. If you're getting a dry halo your pressure is too high or reducer too fast for the temp. You could maybe be flicking the blend too far away. See the paint hitting the car not your hand or the gun. I like that tape trick! Im definitely going to use that. Thanks man i always just back taped and rolled it. Been painting since 2000 and still learning things. I got one for you though. When you blend clear, try wetting the blend spot with blender before the clear goes on and then after. You can put it on even lighter and it will flow into the blender. Always invisible without buffing.

One of our painters folds over the edge, sticks it to a panel and then walks it out while piching the edge at the roll. Works for them but i cant donit like that, over the knee for me 😉😎.

comment on the wet bed. i notice that trigger lays it down wet. 2 coats back to back not getting off the panel till he has coverage. i think thats why he has no need for the wet bed on most hard to spray colors. just my thoughts. trigger spray like a pro and has spit alot of honest good info. my opinion.
@thetriggerman954 Жыл бұрын
Thank you brother, I appreciate that. Just always keep in mind that the wet bed is intended for metallics to land and lay flat That's ideally what the wet bed is for metallics, some painters can use it to correct other issues they may have for instance... "Sand scratches" which happens when the vehicle isn't prepped properly, "sandpiling" which happens from incorrect application including incorrect temperature reducer for the job list goes on bro. People are using the wet bed as a safety net for improper spray techniques Will it help them Yes definitely, but it's best to learn the proper techniques. Thank you for your continued support. Oh and on the side note bro I'm going to be completely 100% transparent with you prior to me starting this KZbin channel I never sprayed with the wet bed. I realize that most people on KZbin are trying to learn how to paint and it does help an inexperienced painter have a better finish. But again I've never used it until starting this KZbin channel. 💪🏼🫡

Damn that paint covers great. I agree with you people on here way over use wet bed. Im currently using sikkens autowave. Never use a wet bed, dont really have any issues not using it either. But the paint coverage on blues and red is awful. Have to use coloured sealer (wet on wet in uk) and it still takes 3 very heavy wet coats to cover and on the job ill be allocated 1 hr to do a bumper + bends takes more like 2-3 hrs. 😅

I use the autowave right now and have sprayed ppg envirobase for a few years. Both have good and bad. Sikkens definitely needs the colored sealer. A work around i found, is use the colorbuild system to mix a color match primer. Spray an extra coat when priming and finish panel with 800. Get the body guy spraying color primer. Then u can go right to color and get coverage in 1.5 to 2 coats.
