I'd be inclined to start by using PPG's Amercoat 65 as your thinner and omit the R6K 30, despite what the distributor said. Maybe @Redux or @NACE could shed more light on the chemistry differences between the 2. I know that Sherwin's R6K 30 is MAK, whereas PPG's Amercoat 65 is comprised of ethyl benzene and xylene, but I don't know enough to tell you whether or not they could be used interchangeably in your situation.
PPG Hi-Temp 1027
We are building a material handling system for a heat treat furnace. The customer recommended a paint that is no longer available and PPG recommended we switch to a Hi-Temp 1027 paint. We tried to spray today and the paint is coming out a bit like spider webs. I'm personally not the painter but I'm the one responsible for making sure things get painted, so here I am.
We are using a Binks gravity feed spray gun and running around 80 PSI. Our PPG rep said to thin the paint but we have already thinned it quite a bit. Just wondering if anyone had any other suggestions I could have the guys try. I dropped a few pictures below to show what we are getting.
Any Help would be appreciated. Thank You,
