Hello Scott, After the Poly-Spray I sprayed two coats of white and two coats of yellow. (Poly-Tone) It looks like,when I'm done, I'll use four gallons of each. You may want to start with two gallons and order more when you're close to running out. At that point you'll be able to make a more accurate estimate. With yellow and red it's necessary to paint it over white. This may not be necessary with other colors. All the very best, Tom
Hi Tom, I got my plane already to paint and am trying to figure out how much paint to order with my HVLP sprayer. I have the type of sprayer that you sprayed with. I was wondering if you had a summary of the quantity of paint that you used to paint your plane. I have the Polly Brush & Spray already. Did you use Polytone or Aerothane? I'd appreciate any information. Thanks Scott Noble Scott.Noble1@Msn.com
Hello, Please excuse my late reply. I'm using the Axis HVLP system available from Aircraft Spruce. http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalo...xissprayer.php When I purchased it I knew very little about spray systems, so, I was attracted to a product that had been set up for spraying fabric. I know a little more now and have to say that I'm still happy with my purchase. HVLP is terrific. MUCH less overspray than HP systems. What does accumulate is a dry dust (either white or yellow in my case) that is easy to brush or sweep away. All the very best, Tom
