I play around with the material flow and pattern knobs continually.
On this job, I actually laid down a sealer coat as a wet on wet, let it flash for 30 minutes and went to work on the single stage top coat. Last year I picked up a 3M accuspray and I am a bit disappointed in after all the hype. I defaulted back to the husky gun I bought ten+ years ago from Home Depot. I am looking at a Seta or Iwata, but we are talking big bucks for a home hobbiest.
I would like to be able to have the knowledge and skill set to shoot the 912 or 911…..[emoji2371] currently my skill set of falling a bit short of my expectations, but it’s all about baby-steps……right?
Family reunion!!!
Here are some pics of these cowlings in the beginning stages of the project. Here is a fun fact: don’t ever have fiberglass plastic blasted unless you are 250% sure that it is 100% hand laid fiberglass. That’s is, unless your willing to fill the hundreds/thousands of micro holes blasted out of the resin gel coat…. Ask me how I know this!!!!!!

The repair process took so many hours, I stopped tracking….
