Spraying wood.......

Nov 30, 2003 1 Replies

I have just purchased a used belt drive DeVilbiss 1 HP



3.7 CFM @ 100psi, 7.5 gal tank compressor. I also have a DeVilbiss EGA-502 touch up spray gun.

What I am wondering is what are common coatings used to spray wood projects with these days. Is nitrocelluose lacquer still a common coating for finishes. What are other coatings used ?



Thanks in advance Denny B


I'm spraying Premium Spray Lacquer, PSL, from

and avoiding lacquer explosions. I'm using a touchup gun with 1HP compressor and am very happy with results.
