What equipment is needed to spray epoxy primer?
so here is my experience. 1 follow the datasheet for the primer you are using. i just use a cheap hvlp gun (100.00 range) for primer. make sure it has the needle size recommended on the datasheet. I have a 60gal compressor, but i think you could get away with a 40, maybe 30 or so. I dont use fresh air, it was too expensive for just painting a few cars or parts here and there. Primer wont atomize like paints and clears (clear is the worst) i double up filters in my respirator when shooting clear coat. Also remember primer will absorb moistier so dont let it have primer forever. or you will be stripping and re priming before paint. if not you will have rust build underneath and bubble paint.........ask me how i know, lol.
spraying expoxy isnt any different then enamal or urethane just follow the datasheet. and do yourself a favor, get a large body panel, hood or something. to practice on before you actually spray paint or clear. my first full paint job i fought with tiger stripes because i thought i could just jump right in. learning spray distances, how to follow body lines and keeping consistent overlap is the key to a good paintjob. primer this wont be as important cause you will be sanding and finishing it anyways.
hope this helps
