My 2 cents. I've got a lot of experience over past year with poly system. Go to
harbor freight get 20$ hvlp paint gun. Air supply should be 40#. you will have
to adjust spay pattern nozzle and volum till u get a smooth slick even coat.
Once that is set hold your tip no more than 12 inches away and rib to rib sweeping
motion don't contiously hold down trigger. Each stroke gets seperate trigger
pull. 1st cross coat should be brushed. Then next 2 cross coats spray it.
Follow mixing instructions and spray in the cool of the morning. If you have
any more questions feel free to email me. I hope to have video uploaded to you
tube within next month. I do have a channel that just shows me playing with
the Kolb Twinstar I have rebuilt in entirety twice. Just look up jesse waller
Kolb twinstar. Good luck and be generous with the polybrush. It is the foundation
in which you put everything else on.

Oh and definitely put at the very least a filter and preferably a dryer in line
or other wise you will have fish eyes popping up. Which looks ugly and requires
mek with very touchy rag to smooth. Then re spray. Don't forget when your brushing
on 1st coat brush small area then come back smooth bubbles out with brush
then let alone.

I found that I could get a fair coverage with 27 lbs on the regular
paint gun...That was my early problem... too much air..several folks
caught that error right away...
I have a dryer on my air supply...
by the way...anyone know of a non messy to apply the 3m , black
weather stripping into the channel on the rubber windscreen trim? Last
time, I just did the best to separate the gap in the trim...a bit too
messy....Herb

I never used any black.. But these ideas may help, where the wind
screen joins the nose cone, I got it to fit correctly, then put tape on
both. Disassembled put in some clear silicone, used a wet finger and
wiped off the excess. When the silicone dried, I removed the tape. It
made a tight fitting air and water tight joint.
