I have just now been looking and doing a little reading on spraying with HVLP. Is it hard to do?
What should I consider before thinking about spraying?
Anything special you need to spray?
Is it faster, easier to do, avoid problems you have doing it by hand?
Bleeder, Non-bleeder? One site says non-bleeders should not be used with turbines because it causes back pressure which can lead to heat. Other sites only sell non-bleeder types.
What about those turbine models, are they good? (fuji, apollo, accuspray, i think)
I have used water based finishes and water based polyurethane and oil base (minwax, general, watco) finishes. If I decide to go this route I will be doing it in my garage. I really don't know that much about spraying finishes but it seems it would be a usefull tool to have.
Thanks for any information
