Hello,
I ordered the Pontiac Blue Metallic paint from KBS.
My original plan was to apply this stuff with a brush.
Reason being I don't have a paint gun and wanted to avoid issues of overspray.
With that, the directions advise to spray the 'metallic' colors for best results.
My concern is that I only have a smaller pancake air compressor and no paint sprayer.
1. Understanding I am only spraying a relatively small amount of area (motor only) would my compressor do the job?
Compressor specs: 150 max PSI 6.0 Gallon tank and 2.6 SCFM delivered at 90 PSI pump
Reading the directions 35-45 psi for siphon guns, 25-35 for gravity feed guns.
2. Any advice of cheap paint sprayer that may work?
Harbor freight has so many I don't know where to start
Having said that, it is going to be hard for me to drop $100 on a paint sprayer at the moment unless it is a really good deal and will be the difference between good and great.
Thank you,
CD
