I have a turbine type HVLP setup and a Sharpe Platinum HVLP gun that runs off of an ordinary compressed air supply. In my experience you _can_ use the turbine gun for both epoxy primer and hardened a
Oh, about $300. :-) A HVLP gun reduces the air pressure within the body of the gun to a lower level, producing less overspray. This also means that the mechanism to feed the paint to the nozzle has t
My guess is that scott's system had a pump control that was cranked up to 70 psi shut-off pressure or maybe even higher in an effort to store more water/pressure per pump cycle. Then the pressure red
use a sine function, not a tangent, since you have the hypotenuse and the side opposite the angle given. side note: tan and sine of relatively small angles are just about the same number since tan =
I also had good luck with Primecell rebuilding a couple of 12volt Makita batteries. They've held up for a couple of years now. -Roland Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T ____________________________________
Don't knock it if you haven't tried it :-) It's the same principle as when we use penetrant on frozen bolts and nuts. If it works on bolts it should (and in my experience does) work on tire beads. No
Imagine using your foot-controlled TIG while doing repairs lying under your car and working overhead. There are many situations where the MIG is just a whole lot handier and quicker and where quickne
Ever since I had a new electric water heater installed there has been "air" in the water lines. This is long after the tank has been filled and all the air bled out of the system. Every time that we
So, is the moral of the story to leak test as you construct the air line? Or install a lot of unions so you can get at that joint in the middle of the array without dismantling the whole thing? -Rola
This winter when the inspector came out to inspect the installation he told me that I really did not need either a permit or the inspection. -Rube Grinder Switch, California _________________________
In our part of the country some lizards carry giardia, I learned from direct experience. At least when they are dead in your water tank it't time for a couple of gallons of bleach. -Roland __________
2 stage means more air available for tools. Storage at higher pressures means that the tank can also store more air. _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team.net Donate: h

I don't think you can buy the sort of brake cleaner I use, here in CA, either. It is the sort of stuff that I apply outdoors and downwind. I could see that it dissolved the varnish and goo in the jet
For an inelegant temporary solution try wedging the exhaust fan's one-way valve open. Depending on your climate and the local rodent population this might be semi-permanent. At least you can see if e
Al (et al.)- My air in the water lines problem gradually went away. Now I don't know if the problem was electrolysis and it stopped cuz there wasn't any more stuff to eat away or if the air came from
