The cabinet refinishing.
#24

I will probably get a viscosity cup, I think thats a good idea. I think though I will probably need to play around a lot with trial and error to find the right mixture. When I did my console I had it thinned to 1 part thinner to 1 part laquer, I seem to need it thinner so it will come out smoother. Had about 30 psi on the gun, maybe a little less pressure might help too. The garbage can idea sounds good, I tried to practice a bit on a piece of plywood but unless I sanded it and put as much work into it as a radio it really didnt show me if it was going to be smooth or not and I really didnt want to put that much work into sanding etc on a piece I wasnt going to keep. Oh well, like I said I guess I have a lot of trial and error to go through to find the right combo. Thanks for your help.
