Ken S,
I do paint I use a graco 7900 for most of the stuff I spray. My brother and I have been looking into traveling to the warmer states for winter work. I work mostly with agriculture. Currently in the mid-west there is a huge boom in fertalizer. The south is where some of the biggest of these companies are. I know where I can go to work but the biggest thing is local support. Where do I get abrasive what are the rules where do you stay? These may sound like stupid questions but when your going to send two semis and three trucks a couple of hundred miles down the road, after an already profitable year, why take the risk? Back to your question, got on the stump and I could not get off. I have been to the SSPC convention. It was in 2000 in Tennesee. I was of the most fun things I have done in my career. Carboline and Sherwin Williams threw unbelievable parties. The educational classes were led by real company owners. I could hardly understand why millionares who own huge companies with two hundred to a thousand employees would stand up and share their secrets with a county bumkin. I was thinking of going to PACE this year have not been to one in 7 years. I sandblast and paint because I own my company. If it was not for the guys who apply the paint to protect a surface from weathering, U.V. attack, salt, chemical and every other thing that attacks what needs to be coated, I would be screwed. Thank for the web link to e-myth.
