Thanks for your support. Trust me I’ll figure it out without without your help. I’ve been out of the game for 30 years so new to all this hvlp stuff. I could lay imron like glass with my siphon feed binks stuff back in the day and a few cars won awards for paint at the local shows but I’m starting at a disadvantage with the new stuff. I’m in the middle of restoring a 70 z28 right now so I’m now down to the body and paint.
Yeah tight space with 2 car garage. Also car body is on the rotisserie which crowds things even more (too steep of driveway to roll it out, . Since I just have an exhaust fan set up and no inlet filter so cleaning the shop to paint epoxy primer seemed a waste. It actually stayed pretty dust free.
Think the comment was for the other guy who said SPI epoxy usability was bad, not you.
The recommendation for most guns is 3 turns out on fluid for a starting point.
The fan and air are ok, but full fluid??
Don,If you are referring to me that’s floor film from a previous build. I pull it up and replace just before final paint for each build. But ya, looks bad at this stage of a build…. At that point it has survived many coats of primer and even bedliner.
The comment wasn't directed at you, but somebody who is too put out because they have to wait 30 minutes to induce and 30 minutes between coats.
Sorry I took it wrong. Tbh the induction and respray time is kinda nice. Shooting lacquer back in the day it was laying on one coat of paint followed asap with the next.
I actually have a whole thread with pics from start to the current point. It’s an all original citrus green m21 4 speed car with factory 4.10s. If you are interested in checking it out the links below. I’m a better mechanic than painter as you’ll find out reading it

I used to use this RBL film. It can be a bear to remove. Stands up well.
At my old job we used binks spray envelope on wet booths, mainly on the walls. Cleaned and resprayed those every week. The floors were sprayed but they chiseled them every 3 months. What a mess... They didn't want to spend the time cleaning the floors more often.
