Default Re: How I spent my weekend

Otto,

A gel coat gun is designed to spray heavy materials. Gel coats, resins, sand, and any other thick stuff. A regular gun could be used to spray gel coat, but you would have to thin it with acetone and maybe some styrene. Also cleaning the gel coat gun is a piece of cake. Can you imagine trying to remove resin from a spray gun? I mixed up and applied almost 3qts, cleaned up and was done in less than 45 mins. By myself. Now I just need to sand (by myself) [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]
