Wings West | Painting the Deception

[@stevendegiorgio3143]

I love those planes.I painted the fiberglass fuselage of my Bridi UFO using monokote colored paint.With Midnite blue matalic paint over white.I miss that plane I sold it back in 1985 for a hollow fuel injection for my 84 Pontiac Fiero.

I would love to see how you regulate a 2000 psi dive tank down to the detail gun at 25-30! Neat set up.

[@Kevin203519]

A standard diving regulator has 2 ports on high one low. The low is 150 psi.

[@Kevin203519]

A SCUBA tank first stage regulator drops the 3000 psi tank pressure down to 125 psi..... A simple standard gate valve or a secondary regulator on the end of the gun brings that down into the 25-30 tip pressure.... as long as you have a first stage regulator that will get it from 3000 down to the mid hundreds the rest is easy.

WOuld a nitrogen tank work as well?

If you're worried about thinning the paint for weight savings you should really invest in a higher quality gun. You'll minimize the amount you put on and have a more consistent and better coverage

I enjoy my SATA guns but the expercise has been to get people in and off the spray cans. Getting them to invest $30 has been challenging.
