MFP;
I've used an oil base paint thru an HVLP gun. It will work, but its not the guns strong point. Its been a few years but i remember thinning it with mineral spirits almost a 100 percent or more, but xylene will work (just a different flash rate)...spray it just like enamel, tack coat, 2-3-4 color coats (what ever it takes to full hiding)...then a mist coat....the old non hvlp guns spray it much better, alot more atomization with HVLP. Since my first cub oil base paint, i've switched to basecoat clearcoat....tons easier, and it won't fade after a year in the sun.
