I have yet to see that gun in action, most painters I know spray base with SATA and clear with IWATA, go figure.
shine;1426 said:yes i disagree with you. nobody i know has had problems using the lph400 and i have had no problems with it.
problems with metallics is not a gun problem. it is application . metallic paint has been around for a long time. i've shot the same colors with a binks 62 , binks 7, jga's in lacquers, enamels and urethanes. the iwata simply makes it easier and saves materials . it helps a novice painter that has little gun control do a better job.
but your statement that the iwata wont shoot metallics is wrong. the orange and purple caps are designed to make your job of matching oem ti-coats easier .
