Some questions for the gurus here. My desire is to get the nicest, most durable topcoat of paint on all parts. My plan was to get an HVLP gun and try my hand at that. I've got reducer as well as hardener from VanSickle where I picked up the TP240 8N grey enamel. One issue I see with the wheel discs is that I am going to have to mix paint four different times. Since these discs are so heavy, I have no where to put them so that I can spray both sides at the same time. So, if I want two coats, I have to do each side twice. Any ideas? Also, wondering about the second coat.....do I wait a while before respraying? How long? Do I lightly sand to give the second coat some bite? What are you recommendations?
