Alternative for spray can painting
I know some of you guys are always asking if its ok to use spray cans to paint your cubs because you dont have a paint gun and compressor at the moment. and the bad thing about the spray cans is that they dont have the hardner in them so it scratches off easily. well I was in tulsa last week at the paint supply store and came across a fix. they have a disposable preval spray gun. It has the bottle on the bottom that you mix your own paint with hardner and everything. screw it to the bottom of the sprayer and your off. It was only $5.50 so I grabbed one to try it out. even though I do have a paint gun and compressor there are days that only have an hour or so to work on my cubs and thats not enough time to paint a few parts that have been prepped and clean everything up. so I thought this would work. I tried it out today and was very impressed. I mean it sprays very well. I was able to mix my regular paint with hardner and thinner and it was good to go. I know this is definately not a replacement for a paint gun and compressor but it sure beats the spray cans. Oh yeah one more thing. I am not in any way associated with this company or the product. I am just a guy offering a tip on something that worked for me. heres a pic of it.
