Gun upgrade

Why do you think that SS urethane is more difficult to apply than acrylic enamel? I find very little if any difference other than AE will run more easily.

Sorry, got my words mixed up. A/E is definitely harder to get right. Especially metallics. Its also softer and easier to screw up. Got mixed up from arguing about the plus gun. Sure it wasnt a high production shop gun, but I'm not pushing out 5 cars a day. I have the tekna, and it definitely atomizes better. So whatever to jaysonm.

So I asked the guy how he can sell it so cheap and he said they buy it buy the truck load


anyone here working for a body shop should be able to tell me if you can produce your own mix of deltron that cheap

1/4 of the price and I would be suspicious. Very suspicious. i might take the chance since what do u have to lose.

I called them and he ( the guy who makes it) wasnt there but its a legit autobody supply store, town and country or something like that when they answered. Spoke to an employee that said its legit he unloads it off the trucks and it says deltron on it.. So.. what should I ask the guy to see if he is snaking ?

I migh take a chance on it since it cant be worse than what I have right?

Buy it and buy a quart of reducer to make sure its legit. That way even if its crap u only have a small investment. If it's good you'll have ALOT of extra basecoat to paint other peoples vehicles and maybe make a few $$$.

talked to him and he seems legit.. its dbu not dbc so the savinga are there, the dbc will be aound 320 /gallon if I used it.
He only has 2 gallons of this left.. north country auto is the store so.. I bought it... he said I need DRR 1170 reducer, he cant ship it cross country its too flamable


jeeez almost didnt get it, someone snagged a gallon while I was typing... WTF hope it wasnt anyone here...LOL

All the large DeVilbiss gravity feed guns have the same cup mount EXCEPT the Startingline which has a different mounting thread.

Hi Len, I've got a Cup question

I just bought a Finishline 4 Master set with AL cup.

I want to get an SRI Pro and a Tekna QC or Prolite

Will they all interchange cups and Dekups systems?

The Finishline and the Tekna cups and adapters are interchangeable however DeVilbiss says that the adapters are different but I use the #43 Tekna adapter for both types of guns. The SRi is a different cup and adapter.
