Hey Guys,
I'm Will, and own/operate a small Restoration in a small town in Texas. Most of my restos are mainly old and rare cars....and usually spray single stage paint(PPG's DCC). As much as I don't really like or want to, I do some collision jobs for friends and family.
Now the frustrating part for me right now is this, I just finished shooting UV clear on a hood, fender, and a new chevy dually bedside. They came out with a TON of orange peel along with some sags too.... I went with Barrys gun adjusting tips and tried to adjust accordingly.
One thing I can say is that it's been around 105* in the booth when I'm shooting....do you think this could be the main reason for the orange peel problem? Or something else?
My compressor is 80gal 16cfm Husky
Gun is a Sata 3000 RP
I've been running a wall regulator and no reg at the gun....I noticed on another website Barry said to crank the wall reg all the way up and put a good quality reg on the gun. I did this and saw no difference in the way it sprayed out.
So at this point any suggestions will be greatly appereciated, cause I'm at the point of shutting down the doors and maybe take up gardening or something....
Thanks
Will
