I have an Isaac 07 and an 07 HS. I have been able to acquire the two guns. A range of caps, spare tips, nozzlea and aome rebuild gaskets. Its not a quick process by any means. I had been eyeballing these guns since the ISAAC was in production. The gathering process can take great patience. To me, acquisition and quality of the line are quite worthwhile as well.
Sweet video! Very Kool from a historical standpoint! Amazing how far manufacturing has come since I used siphon feed Binks #7 back in the early 70’s ! Transfer efficiency , low to little overspray , and :saving 50% of your paint that ended up on the floor…..
Hey Kandy, love your channel. About to start spraying ppg water after 10 years of spraying solvent. Trying to pick up as much as I can and I've been learning a lot from your videos. Keep up the amazing content my man, your channel is my new favorite and we appreciate all that you do for us with these videos.
My shop switched from Sikkens Autobase to PPG envirobase, I miss the reparability but overall the color match is much better. Their program is better then sikkens too
Interesting video Kandy Man you would think the newer guns would be better than the old ones with all the advances in manufacturing and design of the latest tech in spray guns, just goes to show that the oldies still have their place🙏👍John UK
Accuspray 07HS was the best gun. It was faster than the Isaac. 705/.061 base set up. I used it for years. Crazy for metallics and keeping things small. These guns have a big advantage over other guns because they convert the air internally much better. 43psi inlet gives 10 @ the cap. No other gun could do that. No one sprays at 43 psi so imagine how low the pressure was at the cap. Nothing touched Accuspray for efficiency
You missed a couple of key points with respect to Accuspray, Yes, they did make compressor guns like the Isaac but these were afterthoughts. Their main business was producing turbine spray systems and guns. Now their turbines were little different than those Fuji and everybody else makes due to the fact that that they all use the same blower motors. What was unique was the Accuspray 10 turbine gun which was miles superior to all other turbine guns. IT WAS COMPLETELY MADE OF PLASTIC. The 10 gun is what 3M used as a basis to come up with their original and Professional plastic spray guns. These are both based on the original Accuspray 10. What was unique about the 10 was that it had HUGE internal air passages compared to other turbine guns made out of metal (e. g. Apollo) and with turbines this was a critical advantage. It's unfortunate that 3M killed Accuspray’s turbine systems as they truly were the best.
@@kandyman5315 Another reason the 10 gun was made from plastic was the great amount of heat generated by turbine units. The aluminum guns could get hot enough that they were hard to hold. Plastic, being an insulator, had less of a problem with the heat.
Interesting comment. Any good suggested sources to learn more about the Accuspray turbine units? I have a 10 yr old Fuji that I used for woodworking. I also have a few Sata 4000s and have used the 5500 for automotive mainly PPG. I also have been using the 3M PPS 1.0 gun. Have you used a turbine for automotive paints?
@@hansbrix2495 No I have a big air compressor and use Iwata SuperNova's for automotive. I'm not sure Accuspray even makes turbines anymore. For a turbine I'd go with a Fuji multistage unit.
@@satamanschmidt3428 I’m wondering if anyone professional uses Turbines for automotive? I guess I could try a panel but I don’t have all the tip sets and would need to have excess paint to mess with. Given your username I thought you might be more of a Sata guy.😮
Great video! You finally answered my question as to why people don't like the snap on head version of the 3M accuspray. I have one of those and I have used it for 3 cars (primer, sealer, base, clear) and I plan to use it for 3-4 cars this year. My question is, how long before I should stop using it at my usage rate? Or should I just unload it now?
Hi there Kandy Man. You ever get a chance to use the turbine Accuspray 10 series gun or maybe a conversion 10 series gun? I've got 2 turbine and 1 conversion from back in the day. With the pressurized cups, they can move alot of material - biggest down side was when they first came out, people treated them like regular guns - leaving them in the washer overnight/over the weekend or pushing full pressure at the wall regulator and blowing the spaghetti gaskets out of them.
@@kandyman5315 How do the 07's shoot clear? I just picked up an 07HS and will be looking to get nozzle, tip and air cap setups for sealer, base and clear - Thanks!
@@kandyman5315 thanks ! I don’t like waiting that long because contamination get in clear. Only other option I can think of is thinning the clear out ?
@Meticulous Detail you might have moisture in the lines. Use good filtration and run a water trap right before the inlet at gun. Also, if you're not moving all the overspray out in-between coats or after the final coat, it'll circulate and land on your flashed clear and you'll get pop (issue with garage painters).

Awesome video, My winner Isaac. More even and fine. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice history on the accuspray / 3m paint guns
💪
Super video!
Love these vids of old guns thanks for taking time out k man 😊😊

That 3M gun looks really good and you can't beat the price I've seen on them I'm budget guy and don't like spending lots of money on guns
Love them
@@kandyman5315 I'm definitely going to hit up my Sherwin williams rep and see about a deal👍

Love the accuspray for sealer, still using Sata guns for base and clear

Yes I'm aware but my experience is with compressor guns .I started with the slit body pressure cup gun .thanks for the insight

I still have both. the isaac and the accuspray great gun. Wished 3m would of kept them.

Your good either way 👌
Quality k man
Don’t you ever feel hesitant when trying out the older guns versus the newer ones?
Not at all used them for many many years

Yes years ago great setup
@@kandyman5315 How do the 07's shoot clear? I just picked up an 07HS and will be looking to get nozzle, tip and air cap setups for sealer, base and clear - Thanks!
Not a fan for clear but base great gun
Old guns are better than expected
👍
@Kandy Man could you do a review on the iwata spraygun W-400 LV 4 clear gun it was released before the LPH 400
Can I spray waterbase PPG with the 3M Accuspray PPS system?
Yes that's my favorite gun for base 1.3
what are your fan and fluid settings for the 3m performance gun?
3 turns from closed on fan same for fliud
@@kandyman5315 settings for the original isaac? I have one in pretty good shape that I wanna practice with. Thanks
If there is a holey grail vintage spray gun that sprays as good the new current spray guns what gun do you think it would be
This is it Isaac
I’m always getting solvent pop. I feel like the clear is to thick. Can I wait 20 minutes between coats
Yes
