Spraying primer with R500 LVLP spray gun at home garage

Today I’m spraying primer with my R500 LVLP spray gun at my home garage using my Lvlp spray gun I purchased from Summit racing which comes with a 1.7 tip.

[@SprayWayCustoms]

Ain’t nothing like watching that first run of primer go on 👍🏾👍🏾

[@undergroundbuilds7]

Yessir Sprayway that first go round of primer means it’s closer to paint 💯 appreciate you bro!

[@BearBudgetTurbine]

I like the home garage videos👍 The 60 gallon compressor I recently got was the best investment this year. And I only paid $350 for it. But I still use the Spray-it a lot of the time for base. Still working fine. I take it apart after each use even tho it was cheap. Look forward to more content here. Especially if it ain't all shake n bake. C'mon U Tube!

[@undergroundbuilds7]

The SprayIT works even better with a big compressor, KZbin sucks for messing up the video 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@frankrodriguez1977]

Nice job. I got one of those guns as well and it works great. Thanks

[@undergroundbuilds7]

It really works good Frank and performs a lot better with a big compressor which I was impressed with!

[@jayinmi3706]

Last 5. or 6 min is jumpy. I have a SprayIt gun that came in a kit with 1.3, 1.5 and 1.7 tips for anyone looking to buy...it's available that way. Nice work, UPK.

[@undergroundbuilds7]

Thanks Jay, idk why KZbin does that with my videos, I had that same problem on the other channel

[@nelsonfernandez7473]

I love to see your videos, me being a car guy, little by little I've been buying stuff you recommend, what tip size do you recommend for primer is it the 1.7 thanks

[@undergroundbuilds7]

Thanks Nelson I really appreciate you watching the videos and it’s best to know what primer you plan on using, some primers are thicker than others and need a larger tip to atomize correctly so you could range from 1.7-2.0 tip depending on what you’re spraying

[@BT-ih6kr]

from what i have found though, the spray it or versions of that only come with a 1.3 and 1.7 unless there are other tips that work with this gun? good information as always UPK

[@SSRAdventuresMotovlog]

Hey had a question, I got the r500 from watching your videos but had a question about primer. So I used the 1.7 tip for priming but it didn’t atomize correctly tried different settings but kept drying mid air. The primer I was using was high teck High Solids Acrylic Lacquer Primer, my question is what’s the best primer for these lvlp guns that won’t give me headaches lol? Thanks keep up the great work!

[@undergroundbuilds7]

I honestly don’t know what the best primer is for lvlp spray guns are but try turning your air pressure down if it’s up high and that usually helps when it’s drying mid air

Did you remove the top? I was looking at painting a convertible but putting plastic or a bag around the top and leave it up.

I just put the top down and taped up the rest of the car

[@huey8431]

Thank you for your videos. I plan on getting a small 20 gal compressor and I am confused or don't know which gun to get, the Summit or Sprayit? I want to spray primer, base coat, and clear coat with it. Is there such an all in one LVLP gun? I am a newbie

[@undergroundbuilds7]

The SprayIT comes in a kit with different tips that can be changed with one spray gun and will do all 3 Huey

What psi did you spray the primer and would that psi still be the same even with the small compressor?

I put what psi I’m spraying at in the video when I start spraying and I stay at the same psi even when I’m using a small compressor

Good Afternoon, I, am using an R500 lvlp 1.7 tip with Speedokote BLACK Automotive 2.1 Low VOC 2K Urethane Primer Black mixed 4:1 and my prime is very rough, almost sandpaper feeling. I sanded it down and then tried the same with a reducer 4:1:1 with the same results. I'm using the Vevor 6hp compressor. Any ideas?

Great info sir....can ask a question...If I can ..is it 2k primer you use or normal primer...and then after you prime...you wet or dry sand sir.. thanks hopefully you can answer sir..."❤️

[@undergroundbuilds7]

I use a 2k primer and I also use a lacquer primer depending on what I might be doing, and both methods of sanding works well but I probably do more dry sanding than I do wet sanding when it comes to primer. I hope that helps Mahal!

Yooo what’s the best primer (Recommended) to use out of the Sprayit

[@undergroundbuilds7]

I don’t really have a best primer to use, and it really depends on what tip you’re spraying with, if you have the 1.7 tip you can just about spray any primer but if you’re using the 1.3 tip you might have to go with something that is thin but will build up nice
