The Great Pumpkin - '71 Duster

Thanks.

And yes, same primer as before, PPG DP50LF with some reducer in it.

Got the orange paint the other day and when I was at the store the counter guy said I should use a gun with a smaller tip like a 1.2-1.3 for the paint. The primer gun I have now is 1.7 which they said was too big. Starting to run low on the DP primer activator stuff and will likely have to go get more to do the engine bay. Since I have to go back anyway, I may get a cheap gun for the paint.

Feels like I'm sort of getting the hang of this stuff. I'm not a painter by any stretch but in a pinch...

As I'm sure everyone has read umpteen times, successful paint is all in the prep. I have been making sure everything is wiped down 2-3 times with a damp rag until it's clean then with wax and grease remover solvent and finally blown dry with air. I have a water separator in the air line and filter on the gun itself. Seems to be spraying out evenly.
