So there I was....
Finally the basement is finished, the 138" diagonal sintra screen is masked, the walkboard is set up, the paint is mixed and strained. I have the HVLP 2900 ready to rock. I've practiced on cardboard sheets and feel comfortable with the gun. So onto the walkboard for steady, even coats.
Well, coat #1 goes off without a hitch. 1 our later, coat #2......for those of you who know the 2900 gun, it has a rather long hose to deliver air pressure from the fan/compressor to the gun. Well, along the top of the screen as I was walking steadily along the walkboard, this hose got caught on a part of the walkboard, causing the steady gun movement to cease. So 1 hour later while the rest of the screen is dry, I have a spot, top dead center about the size of my fist which is still wet and has some runs.
Any thoughts on this. Going forward, I'll wrap most of the hose back around the compressor, but just wondering how to take care of this spot.
Thanks,
Dave
