I use PPG paints, and this was single stage shot with a 1.5 tip out of my DeVilbiss. It calls for a 4:1:1, but I didn't use the reducer and it flowed nice. Shot the bed that way along with the wheels and very happy with the results. Booth is a pseudo - cross ventilation and it worked well keeping dust out and overspray hanging around was minimal. Sweat drips, on the other hand....:-(. I still need to hit this with some 1500-3000 and a light buff, but still happy with it.

Dave -- was that a PPG single-stage urethane, acyrlic enamel, etc. ??

Thanks -- Craig
