    Toolbox replacement time. Suggestions?

    I am also thinking about a replacement box for myself. I have a SnapOn box that has to be nearly 50 yrs old. Top box is great, but a fee of the lower drawer slides are about done. Those HF boxes look very nice and will probably get one of them for me.

    Oil on your hedders?

    We buy them for our little one incase he has an accident at night. Get the Goodnight brand from Amazon. That's a great idea for the next time I change the oil on my 22 Ram.

    Base/clear require different tips. Don't get me wrong, the HF gun does good, and is more suited for single stage paints that require a larger tip to spray. The clear coats need a 1.2-1.3mm tip to atomize the clear properly to make it lay flatter. My new gun I bought for the sole purpose of clear...

    Devilbiss paint guns

    I looked at the data sheets as suggested. The GTI cap uses less air psi, and has a wider angle as well. I have worked in body shops in the past, took a career change w/ the Military and now do this as a hobby and extra money. I paint about 2 cars a year now and various parts. I use BC/CC system...
