Hi, I normally use a 1.4 nozzle and a gravity gun

I use 1.4 suction for cellulose.

[bluemini1979]

i will be using 2 pac. and using safety gear lol

[myredmini]

Gravity fed may be better in that case then :)

[bluemini1979]

with the same size nozzle? :)

[corrado vr6]

for filler primer 2k i use 1.4mm
and for basecoat and clear coat i use 1.3mm

so you could probably be ok with 1.4mm as an all rounder

edit to say thats a gravity fed gun and DeVilbiss is one id recomend

I am using a 1.4mm suction feed with 2K at the moment and I can not get on with it at all. I am trying to get hold of a new gravity feed to give that a go.

I also find it annoying having to paint the flat surfaces first with a suction feed gun, bonnet, roof, tops of wings etc as when you get to the bottom of the can it has to be held upright so that the last 1/4 of the can can be used.

If that makes sense?
