Nothing better than getting a new tool for my shop to play with and to make my projects better. I am making around 20 projects a week just to keep up with my sales at the farmers market. Between paint and lacquer I was going through 10 to 20 rattle cans a week.  After doing a lot of research I broke down and bought this Titan spray gun at Sherman Williams. It is totally awesome! It plugs in and has a turbine in the handle. No over spray at all. Of coarse it wasn't cheap, but what good tool is? I got an extra head and cup  so I can keep clear in one and paint in the other.  As long as I'm not changing colors you can leave the product in the cup and not clean it. I have sprayed black and clear precat lacquer so far. Talk about an awesome finish.

 

Another new product I bought last week is a dense MDF. I also really like it. A lot of my backer boards which I paint, edges are exposed. This new stuff the edges paint much better. 

 

I will not ramble any more. As you can tell....this old man is excited. dav

Dave congrats on the new toy tool.

 

MDF is some nasty stuff. It creates very very fine dust and MDF is made of some nasty toxic materials. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE use a proper mask or better yet a respirator. When spraying lacquer you need to do that outside. The fumes are explosive and toxic. It would be safer to spray water based poly.
