I use to use the 2.0 tip for primer and have even gone as big as a 2.3 gun for primer[might as well just pour it on]but I went to a 1.7 and it with the MR 186[or this time of year in the heat MR 187]and it went really slick. It saves a TON of sanding [to get smooth] if you go with the 1.7 tip. I have used many gallons of that MP282 high build and it really does well. You will be happy with the results. But keep in mind that the primer is porous and will soak moisture. that is why I suggested spraying some equipment enamel over it for two reasons. 1 it will seal it up and 2 it will provide cheap color
can you get this equipment paint from a auto paint supply? what sandpaper should I use befor paint? THANKS
