Hi folks
Well, after getting some quotes to paint my -8, all with WAAYYY too many zeros in them, I've decided to bite the bullet and paint the thing myself. In fact, three of us are going to split the cost of an HVLP unit and paint our RVs.
Now, I know quite a few of you guys and gals have painted your own aircraft. If you used an HVLP system, :
1) Which system did you use ?
2) Good points of the system ?
3) Bad points ?
4) Gotcha's
5) Recommedations.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. We are planning to pick up the HVLP unit at Osh this year, as we figure we'll get the best deal there.
Thanks a bunch,
