  • How to use a HVLP spray gun. Spraying zinsser BIN primer with my Graco 9.5 Finish Pro HVLP and the Edge 2 Plus Gun. Using a needle 4 set up, spraying neat. Here I will be spraying shutters in situ. They needed a lot of adjustments when fitted so left them attached.
    Zinsser Bin shellac primer dries really fast and sands easy. It also seals knots. It made priming these shutters an easy job.
    I will add a clean up video shortly as its been requested quite a lot too.
    Any questions please let me know in the comments. Thanks for watching.

    I had absolutely no luck shooting acrylic emulsion paint when I first got my Earlex HVLP. Polyurethane varnish was a little easier, but I did struggle to reduce it to the correct consistency.
    I use alcohol based acrylics in my airbrush, I had no idea you can get alcohol based shellac paints for larger scale furniture projects. I'm going to have to give this stuff a try when I do my kitchen cabinets later this year.

    • @sprayaholic
      @sprayaholic  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for the support. How many shutters ? Youd probably have more pressure control with the gxff
      The ultra would work fine but you may be filling the cups, also if you want to be in and out or electricity is an issue the ultra is great. Just make sure both batteries are charged.

I can see it coming in real handy for getting a real nice finish to like an exterior front door for example and little cleaning up time etc. Perfect for them small jobs I think, and it’ll work well for furniture and cabinets and the like 👍🏻 this year I’m gonna change things around and focus more on spraying and making my life a little easier, plus improve the quality of finish and time.

    If you had to paint a couple of cabinet doors which would be your go to sprayer considering set up and clean up and any other factors including finish, over-spray etc? Small airless, Graco Ultra or this HVLP? I primarily use Latex.
    I have used HVLP since they came out in the early 80's and did not like the fogging and heating up the paint. Since then I have not used one and can assume they are much better these days.
    Just considering a small touch up unit that I will have on the job site and will more than likely not clean out after every use as it looks like you do. Heck the time saved not cleaning can buy me many sprayers. I know its wrong, but my time is worth a lot.

    • @sprayaholic
      @sprayaholic  Před 3 lety +1

      Hey. I dont clean out my sprayers that often. Both my airless units are still sat in the same paint, i will be using again the end of the week. I just clean the tip and guard and cover the paint.
      Same with hvlp i clean the tip end buy the guns have both still got paint in them. Once ive finished with that paint or job i then clean.
      They have improved alot. Fogging comes from too much air and wasted paint in the air. You can really dial down the paint and get little overspray and fogging. Its good to have an extractor you can hang out a window too which can draw out the overspray.
      Depends, i would happily do it with the ultra, but i do like using the hvlp. You just need to make sure youve applied enough paint. I see sone people applying it too thin, hence it comes off and doesnt last.
      I guess it comes down to what may be best for you at the time

    Awesome videos. Quick question if you don't mind answering you have probably answered 100 times before. But I have some spraying experience using conventional spray set up and Gun. Used Apollo stage 3 before as well(didn't like it had to tin paint to much to get to spray right) but I would spray/hand paint occasionally. Some project and trim. I've been looking to get a Fuji q4/q5 or the Graco 7/9 or 9.5 likes yourself. But I keep toying with the idea of the Graco ultra cordless as well. Only use water based paints. (Colourtrend here in Ireland) would a Fuji stage 4 be good enough to spray waterbased paint obviously thinning but with my previous experience with the Apollo it's throwing me off because of the thinning. How much to much to thin water based paint

    • @sprayaholic
      @sprayaholic  Před 3 lety +3

      Hey bud thanks for watching. I have an old video on here using the fuji Q4 great machine.
      Basically a 3 stage pushes around 6psi
      4 stage 9psi
      5 stage 9.5psi
      So a big jump on power when you get a 4 stage. Also the needle size makes a big difference, ages ago most used to come with a 1.3 needle so would need thinning again.
      I use a 1.8mm mostly, the graco comes with more things like 3 needle sets.
      A qtech 5 would be like a fuji mini mite 5. The guns are the same.
      I had that apollo machine too ha. Colourtrend sprays nice i like it.
      I thin max 10% with the 9.5 and also using the larger needles it sprays thicker material. Also warming up the paint makes it flow alit easier to avoids thinning

Also for just occasional spraying would you recommend a graco ultra or something like a stage 4 hvlp gun. In the long run. Sometimes I would spray varnish as well which I don't think a graco ultra would be great for. Might leave it with orange peel

      Too much fog in the air is usually when youre air is too high.
      Orange peel could be the paint is too thick or youre applying too much.
      Is the paint really thin like a stain/milk?
      If not id consider try a number 4. Try and get the paint consistency right, so if you put a stick in the paint, lift it out qnd see if the ripple stays for a long time. Disappears or is take maybe 3 seconds for the ripples to blend into all the paint.
      Then you can get your settings lower, if you spray too lightly the suface will be rough. So id spray 1 coat, then build up from there. If it needs sanding in-between coats that helps get that perfect finish

    Hey man !!! How come you switch from Fuji to graco hvlp? I’m deciding on buying the q5 vs graco 9.5.... thanks

    • @sprayaholic
      @sprayaholic  Před 3 lety +2

      I sold my fuji Q4 and about a year later i realised i missed it ha.
      The Q series is on of the quietest machines it has a lower hum.
      You get more for your money with the graco. 3 tips sets 1.3mm, 1.8mm, 2.2mm, longer hose, smart start. Flexi cup that sprays all angles, and i really like the guns adjustability.
      The fuji is fantastic too. The guns are really well made. Not sure what the tip size is that comes with the fuji gun. Maybe a 1.3 or option fro a 1.8mm (i would say opt to buy another tip so you have atleast a 1.8mm in your set)
      The Qtech would be a contender also. The Qtech5 its abit like the fuji mini mite 5. Guns are the same as fuji. It comes with a 1.5mm in the gun. You could get a deal with a pressure pot on that one and it would probably still be cheaper than the others. Still id buy a 1.8mm needle set.
      So long as its 5 stage you're flying. Its really just gun preference and loudness after that. But all will get you the same finish.

    Do you thin your bin at all? and Do you think it would work with a gravity fed gun, or is the extra air from the air assist necessary to spray un-thinned paint?

    • @sprayaholic
      @sprayaholic  Před 2 lety

      Hi. It sprays fine unthinned. Gravity would be great also. A s gravity does most of the work and the air just pushes it out.
      Depends on what hvlp unit you have qnd its power, and also the tip size is important

      @@guineapigs3424 so with q compressor set up it depends how powerful the compressor is.
      These turbine units arnt as powerful and max psi at the gun is 9.5psi. I use a 1.8mm needle so it flies out.
      Alot of compressor guns have a 1.3 or lower if itz not been changed. The lower the numver the more work needed to spray a nice fan.
      Honestly BIN is surprisingly easy to clean, it cleans faster than waterbased as the chemical reaction cleans the solvents. Where as water cleans faster from manually scrubbing or warm water. Have you seen my BIN cleaning video?

    Hey mate, would i get away with a 1.3 or 1.5 tip with a 5 stage Fuji @ 9.5psi. Or do I need to purchase a 1.8. about to get stuck into it this weekend and I've only got the 1.3 atm. Wondering if I should postpone the painting or just hit it with what I've got. Cheers

      The 1.3 wil spray it but you'll need to thin. Youll see a big difference between the 2 tip sizes when spraying .

      Do you have any information or tips on what paint to use for cabinets. I've spent days trying to figure out if I should go latex with polyurathane top coat, waterbased acrylic-alkyd enamel or go old school with an oil based paint. The yellowing and dry time are putting me off tho. Too many choices. A lot of the paint suggestions online are for specific brands not available in Australia so I'm going around in circles. Curious what your go to combo is. Cheers, thanks for the help.
