For those of you tackling car painting or similar DIY projects and wondering about using larger nozzles or different types of paint with the InoKraft D1-LVLP Spray Gun, here’s a quick guide to ensure you get the best results without any hassle.
Key Recommendations
- Optimal Nozzle Usage: The InoKraft D1-LVLP is designed to perform best with nozzles sized at 1.3mm, 1.5mm, and 1.7mm. These sizes are ideal for automotive paints and primers, providing a fine finish with minimal overspray. While larger nozzles like 2.0mm or 2.5mm might seem suitable for broader applications, they are not recommended for use with this spray gun as they may not provide the desired finish and can affect the spray quality.
- Suitable Paint Types: This spray gun is optimized for use with thinner, less viscous paints typically used in automotive work. It is important to avoid using latex paint with the D1-LVLP as its thickness can lead to clogging and uneven spray patterns. If your project requires latex paint, consider using an HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) spray gun, which is better suited for handling thicker paints.
Why Stick to Recommended Settings?
- Avoid Clogging: Using thicker paints like latex can block your spray gun, leading to poor performance and additional cleanup.
- Achieve Professional Results: Sticking to the recommended nozzle sizes ensures that you get a smooth, even coating, especially on car surfaces where precision is key.
To be Continued
The InoKraft D1-LVLP Spray Gun is a powerful tool for specific painting needs, particularly automotive painting. Using the recommended nozzle sizes and appropriate paint types will help you achieve the best results and avoid common issues like clogging and poor spray patterns.
