Using the Mini-Mite 4 to finish electric guitars: "I could not believe the difference."
I'm using the Fuji Mini Mite 4 to spray Electric Guitars. UPS delivered it at 8:30PM last light. I've been using a 3 stage Titan Capspray unit but I just can't seem to get a good smooth finish. Last night I immediately put the Fuji mini Mite 4 to work. I read the manual cover to cover in a few minutes and got in my booth at around 10PM. I could not wait to see if it would lay down a better finish so I have less level sanding time. I'm using a Water based Clear Gloss by Target Coatings. I ran thinner through the gun first as directed. I then sprayed a test panel to get the settings right. Then sprayed 4 guitar necks.
I could not believe the difference. It went on like glass. I was not able to get anything even close to that with the Capspray unit. I could tell right away that the Atomization was much, much finer.I only did 4 necks which took less than 5 minutes. I wanted to stay out there but is was already too late (neighbors).So far with the quick test I did I am very impressed!
I've seen a lot of negative posts on line (against) HVLP Turbine Systems (in general) usually people that have used conventional for a long time. They say HVLP is not as good. I sprayed and it laid down like glass. Can't do better than that!What more can you ask for? Fuji HVLP Turbine, lightweight, compact, portable, affordable and sprays excellent. Perfect! Not only will I use it for my Guitar Business I can use it for almost anything. Awesome!
