I always spray with Advance. But I lay doors flat and use a 208fflp. Works every time.
I don't really mind doing 1 side at a time as I usually have other things I can do..

*I usually paint one side at a time also. Has anybody else used these? I have two sets, and they come in a duffle bag. Highly recommended as a portable (and permanent) setup.

I’ve had good results spraying Advance with 308 tip. Increasing the ambient temp and get airflow going as soon as you can also helps prevent sagging.

For me Advance isn’t worth the hassle. The long cure times made it challenging to use on cabinet or remodel projects. I also think it’s too brittle, which causes it easy to chip and crack too easily.

If you want to go SW take a look at Kem Aqua Plus or HydroPlus.

Try using these racks when painting Advance. You can get both sides painted one coat in one day. as far as all of your runs and sags I would suggest you continue to practice with this product. Rarely do we ever get a run or sag anymore only because we have studied and learned this product. Knowing how quickly to spray so you get that fine combination of coverage without overbuild as well as knowing how far away from the surface to be before you start spraying.

 

Why not try Cabinet Coat?

 

There have been several guys on here who espouse the greatness of the erectarack system. I seem to remember one guy having a problem with them (some part wasn't in the package or something) and a rep showed up on here and remedied the situation immediately which speaks to customer service.

 

One thing about the Advance I haven't seen mentioned here is it's a 2 coat system. You have to spray doors and cabinets one way, no crossing them out and put a medium coat on. The trick is waiting 12 hours (or at least over night) and apply a second coat the same way and it looks like glass.

 

Its not really a 'trick' when its specified that way in the TDS.

 

I would recommend you use lacquer base coat-primer

 

and for top coat water base lacquer such as Can Lak or Goudey

 

and final result brand new cabinets

 

you can't even tell that is painted

 

and one more important hvlp turbine sprayer

 

best is : Graco or Titan

 

if use advance paint probably result is very poor

 

Yes because no one has ever used advance successfully. Are you bot or just a drunk Canadian tonight?


Obviously a bot.

 

good luck

 

Why aren't you guys using cabinet specific paint? I will put up SW Hydroplus against anything BM has, the only downfall is the dry time. The KEM Aqua is better than anything BM has for cabinets and has a dry time of about 15 min. Oh the reason I like spraying flat is the above mentioned paints are self leveling so if you spray a little heavy you don't get any sags or runs.

 

Why aren't you guys using cabinet specific paint?

Probably because lacquers are not considered paint grade, as in you can't brush and roll kem aqua.


BM does have some very good lacquer options in the Lenmar brand, though not much in the waterborne family they are very good.
