      Same application principal applies. You will get much better results with a spray gun.

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge it means a lot to us beginners. I have a question about something you said in the video. You make a extra pass going back and forth vertical if the film needs more activator. How do you know what film needs more activator? Can you tell from looking at the film or handling it?

    • @AllThingsFunHydrographics
      @AllThingsFunHydrographics  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is all from experience. No two films are the same, which is one of the reasons people struggle so hard with activating. It takes a lot of time and practice, which is why I always tell people to practice on something cheap before doing your actual project.

      There is no best, it all just depends on what you want. One hit wonder, big brain, twn, liquid concepts all sell the products you need.

    • @AllThingsFunHydrographics

      Trial and error. Lots of testing and practice. Every time I get a new film I have to trial and error and see what it likes.

    My spray gun has a 1.7 mm tip, I need a 1.3 but I can’t seem to find any. Are all tips interchangeable between different guns? I have a kobalt model SGY-AIR176NB

    What a great help! Thank you! I was curious about the regulator? What brand do you use and how precise should they be? I've got a Harbor Freight digital regulator but it will jump from 12-18 psi between uses.

    • @AllThingsFunHydrographics
      @AllThingsFunHydrographics  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I had some HF regulators and had the same issue. The ones I buy now are from amazon and cost about 40 bucks. They last about a year and I toss them and get new ones. It needs to be pretty specific so you can get repeatable results.

    Thanks for the good videos, I'm learning a lot. I'm a beginner and I'm hesitating between buying a cheap spray gun or sticking with aerosol activators. Will a cheap spray gun spread the activator better than a rattle can? Thanks!

    • @AllThingsFunHydrographics
      @AllThingsFunHydrographics  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Spray gun hands down. There is zero consistency with the cans and they make it much more difficult to dip.

    Do you think that particles (even ones you think you can’t see) can effect the way the film goes on a product? Ex: tiny wood particles, dust, micro water droplets from a the air compressor?

    • @AllThingsFunHydrographics
      @AllThingsFunHydrographics  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      anything that makes the surface rough or not smooth is going to affect the dip. You want to parts to be clean and smooth as possible.

      No sir... I make sure to filter the activator before I put it in the cup and I have not cleaned the spray gun in so long I cant remember.

    Great video but I'm correcting in two important points.
    When you adjust the air pressure you did it with an empty gun. After you filled it with activator I can assure you that the pressure goes up, not by much but it still effect the spray pattern. Second. You opened the needle full. If you turn it clockwise a half to 3/4 turn you will have less over spray.
