Clear Coat Application HVLP for BMW 2002 Restoration

In 5 yrs everything you sanded will be dull & dirty & hard to clean whereas the rest will wash right off. Theres no getting back to that perfect untouched seal.

People, if you guys noticed the spray pattern on his gun, you will see the reason to why he had a sag in the test panel. The pattern was to narrow and round. You need an 8" vertical oval shaped spray pattern on the test panel while holding the gun 12" away. So just adjust the material adjuster to get the shape. I know this guy has a nice compressor, so there should be no problem with pressure to the gun.

You're doing good but open up your spray fan a bit 8-10 inches, open up the flow and back up a bit. Long straight consistent passes with the gun from side to side will help.

I would not drop heavy on the ist paint and first clear coats; start lightly, flash as you're supposed to, and "let the plot thicken LOL!"
