I picked up a nice '73 Revenna green teener last fall that had been a stalled project. Mechanically she is back together and on the road, body is solid being a SOCAL car until the last 10 years and basically garaged for refreshing since then, but she does need paint.
I've done a bit of panel paint work, do a respectable job, and have decided to paint this car myself with the help of an experienced hobbyist painter. For this I'm looking to upgrade guns. Given the local paint shop is a Dupont retailer, I plan to use their products, will be shooting base and clear, not single stage (don't even know if I can get single stage if I wanted it...). Will also be shooting primer with this gun. Presently I have a 25 gallon compressor that is advertised to be 7.0 CFM at 90 PSI, but have no issues with upgrading my compressor now that I have a larger garage and plenty of 220 service. Any recommendations for a decent gun setup? |
