    As the owner of the van, I cant thank Tony enough for sorting this mess out for me, the amount of work he has put into it is was far more than was expected but it shows in the quality. I saw it today for the first time in a few weeks and it blew me away!! I can't wait to get it back now and get it built up ready foe next year. Thanks again Tony!!

    Hey Tony I figure you were spraying with a 1.2 at 1.8 bar or a little less. Were you also about 2 turns out.or less. spray looks really fine and good coverage. that is why I figured that you were maybe 1.5 to 2 turns out. max. Nice and slow so you can see that you got everything painted and covered.

    Fantastic job mate the old bus looks mint and has to be better than new. Please don't beat yourself up about the lost footage Tony I know it's a shame but it's not your fault plus there is nothing you can do about it now, it seems to be a built in feature of the gopro it's aim is to piss it's owners off, all the years these camera's have been out it's really annoying as to why they don't sort these bugs out 🤷‍
    You were using the green fine line tape so can you tell me what the JTape Orange 6mm is like and what the difference is between the colours, someone has given me a tin of blue candy and a new reel of orange fine line so was wondering what the orange tape was for, cheers mate 🤗👍

  • @seasonedtoker
    @seasonedtoker 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    The way I like to mask with paper or foilwrap is to put the paper or wrap slightly below the actual line I am working on. Then I add another layer of tape on top to make the fine line. That allows me to pull the tape around the line while the paint or topcoat is still little sticky, but leaving the paper/wrap in place. Easier to pull tape than flapping with paper sheets around a tacky car. Gives a better finish too

    Hi, just like a little advice from an experienced painter. I work in the furniture/kitchen refinishing business and currently having problems with the level of our 2pac gloss level being reduced once it has cured. The paint rep has advised us that we are applying the correct amount of build which is 200 to 250 microns of paint yet the problem still occures. I was thinking that the amount of thinners is a little to much @ 30% of a 2/1 mix which might be taking out the body/gloss of the paint? Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Tony, I notice your boys at SP Supplies don't carry Sagola. David told me in an Email a while back that they were trying to get Sagola but hadn't yet been able to. Do you know if this situation has changed and if it will? I bought several Walcom Carbonio guns from David when he was "at that other place" but Walcom's prices have gone insane. In my view both Iwata and Sagola are the best bang for the buck in the current market and I sure would like to find a reasonable source for Sagola.
