@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 Question, For the big body Crown Vicks and Grand Marques using Speedokot single stage Jet Black and or dark Brown whats the compressor size I need at a minmum?? Would a 40 gall. work?? I see guys using lvlp painting but I feel that I need to stick with Ole School painting
@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937I have a 6gal Metabo HPT The Tank air compressor which has 4.0CFM at 90psi. How well would this work in your opinion? Also how big of an improvement would it be to connect a 10 gallon reserve tank?
Black is the easiest color to paint😅😂 try some silver, needs perfect uniform the paint layer, will make darker "shadows" if the layer is to tick in some places. Or candy paint...I also had some issues with super light pearl blue...hard to see the layers due to almost transparent paint...
I think you would really like a portable turbine HVLP paint sprayer system for your mobile business. I love my Fuji Spray turbine setup.There's minimal overspray, always puts out dry air and lays down a beautiful finish.
Only thing I wouldnt like is the cleaning (takes more time) , and the "what if" It goes bad. If one of my spray guns goes bad I grab another one I keep 3-4 on my rig at any moment. Those turbines are 400-600 a pop. Not keeping 3-4 of those 🤣
@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 I ordered the s18 pps 2 adaptor and a 3m pressure cup. I will be using the pps 2 22 ounce refills. You pop off the black ring, drop the liner in your pressure cup, put lid/cap on. Hook up the little plastic line...good to go. Not much different than compressor gun clean up.
Good tech talk...after looking at larger gal compressors, it's really about CFMs and what gun you're using. As always Marco, thanks for keeping it real for the DIY'rs!! 🍻

Im new to painting but from what ive learned... small compressors create more moisture due to the constant running. It generates heat and the cooling factor of uncompressing the air creates moisture... its just a constant cycle of that
I had these issue starting out too with a small compressor . I got a 2 water thingys (one in front and one at gun) and I learned how to spray 2 stage with a 8 gallon with a high cfm rating. BUT single stage is still impossible for me. I just did a short explaining it
@@TheRealWormsGarage thanks I was also looking at that one but it says it has a cfm of 3ish? Also what are the water things might go with your same set up?
I would like to know if you used a pressure regulator on yr spray gun and a filter for the water. I use a 27 gallon one and was total use less kept losing air quickly. How can a 6 gallon do that
No water issues with a turbine for mobile or these kinda jobs. Just unlimited dry air. Hey, you could always brand your own turbine gun, right?? Harbor Freight had the Avanti
I have a husky compressor 8 gallon 150 psi at 3.7cfm. I keep it at 80 psi with limiter so dont go over and then i tune the huksy spray paint guns to 40 or 50 psi legit even when spraying wont go lower. When not spraying goes up to like 65-70 psi. I always try to be mad patiently 😅 but mad this video gives me more motivation to keep going 💯💪🔥🔥🔥 as for moisture in the air would you recomend 2 air filters to be safe? One by compressor and one on spray gun?
Question for you buddy: were you using a HVLP or LVLP spray gun when using this compressor? I'm considering the buying the same one! Maybe even the larger white one!
@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 have you considered ,for your mobile unit only, using LVLP guns? I did and it was a game changer! My older oil filled compressor is now contaminating the air so I need to up grade! Looks like the vevor is my next purchase!
HVLP guns are typically rated for 14 CFM at the gun (important as there are loses from tank to gun) and above, that’s the High Volume part of HVLP. With a smaller compressor you absolutely need to match the gun CFM requirement to the compressor output, at the gun. Try an LVLP gun, they’re not expensive, I’d be fascinated to see if your finish is better. Try high flow connectors and a higher I.D. Line too. Also, keep your water/oil separator some distance from the compressor and if possible after a u-bend in the line. This acts like a water trap and allows time for the air to cool and lose moisture before arriving at the gun. 🤞
This reminds me that next time I'm just going to run to HF to get a cheap tool to check Vevor first. Seems like they have slightly better prices for similar or better tools. Lets go buy (tools)! #LGB
Epoxy primer isant super compatible with regular metal work/ body work. Your actually better off doing a etch type primer (acid etch) sprays super smooth and lays flat. Can paint right over it without sanding .
Mark I have a question for ya perhaps you would care to address or perhaps you already have and I have missed it I have painted several cars unprofessional but with decent results but am currently working on my pride and joy a Chevelle a large car by todays standard so my question is how much paint ? Before paint actually came in 1 gallon container so plus thinners and etc. you got maybe gal. and a qt. with products today you only end up with a gal. see my dilemma? Also money is a factor it deserves a great paint job I have owned it 42 yrs now I'm almost there thanks.

He's got solid advice on stuff. He just has a different setting with the work he does. We also do a lot of "quick scratch&spray" Jobs. This is not something a 3-5 million dollar body shop will do.
Great job and explanation. When I decide to paint my 51 Hudson I will be using a 21 gal compressor, working up the nerve to do it. Thanks once again.
Nice!
Once again you gave me the confidence to try this myself. Thank you.
Absolutely !
nice paint job came out great would love a vid on how to fix the runs on that fender
We will try to post that!
Honest dude showing the runs! SMR is a great finish.
Yes I just went a little to heavy on second coat and it was also evening, colder temperatures didn't dry up as fast. Some user error and some is just organic from low air pressure

I would like to know if you used a pressure regulator on yr spray gun and a filter for the water. I use a 27 gallon one and was total use less kept losing air quickly. How can a 6 gallon do that
You need to set the compressor at about 15 to 20 psi more than the gun regulator to keep pressure from dropping too much at gun.
No water issues with a turbine for mobile or these kinda jobs. Just unlimited dry air. Hey, you could always brand your own turbine gun, right?? Harbor Freight had the Avanti

LOL WHOLE NEW MEANING TO LGB 🤣🤣🤣🤣 yea vevor quality is better than hf IMO
How did you paint that without masking the headlights??? What kind of gun did you use? HVLP or LVLP?
@@ginfizz20 we did mask lights for basecoat stage . Then peeled tape and paper for clear coat stage to clear coat everything in one shot
I heard you can’t spray thicker epoxy primer with low pressure guns?
Epoxy primer isant super compatible with regular metal work/ body work.
Your actually better off doing a etch type primer (acid etch) sprays super smooth and lays flat. Can paint right over it without sanding .
So the question is can I use a vevor to do a ford ranger would love to see u paint asmall pick up with it
Yes very possible
Can you paint a bumper cover with a 3 gallon tank?
It's possible
Did u not tape off the lights because u refinished them and wanted to put the clear on them?
Correct
I am painting my car with a small compressor and speedokotes single stage. Is the slow reducer a must?
Yes
Slow reducer and slow activator. Fallow directions on can

Vevor 6.6 gallon

Personally always make sure I have 1 galllon of base and one gallon of clear IMO. Smr42 is the best clear on the market
@@speedokoterefinishnetwork4937 thanks Mark base coat clear coat was my next question lol awesome
What psi did you have when shooting?
Very low had no gauge so no idea 😂
How about diy Turbine compressor simular to fuji spray system 🤔
It would work
What is the spray gun you used on this video?
My brand
What is covering the headlights?
Masked them up for base , then removed them and clear coated everything
I've often wondered if my Kobalt 26 gallon compressor would be enough
Yea if you can start and stop a few times
Use a R500 spray gun
I have my own line of guns I use
How many gal is smallest that u good use for sanding and painting
