  1. Ok, but the clear came off with my fingernail the next day, it peeled off like dead skin im pretty sure its not supposed to do that. I hadnt even fished the blade yet. I will give the devcon a try though thanks for the response.
  2. Well I have another question, imagine that! I put on some UV clear after painting it rubbed off, so talked to some paint guys and theysaid ruff it up and take the shine off of it thenapply your clear. Did that too it was better still rubbed off. This is clear I purchased with my airbrush and paint it is not powder clear it is a brush on. So should I be using a powder clear they seem really shiney without a clear which is not really what im looking for I was just figuring on protecting the color I sprayed.
  3. Hey guys, thanks for all your help although I still have some slight overspray problems it has improved and shooting 3 colors looks good and my 4 color still needs some work I think with some practice it will get better so I see some light at the end of the tunnel.
  4. Thank you, I will try all the things you mentioned see how it works out for me.
  5. Yes, I understand i will get some blending and i l actually want that so no problem there. I am painting colorados, cascade, and willoleafs of various sizes usually not smaller than #5s. As for air pressue when i drop down below 5psi my brush does not want to shoot the powder real well. I am trying to duplicate a blade color that I am successfull with on a cascade blade which goes from a dark green to yellow chartruse to white and then repeats the chart and green again. I know I am new but im pretty crafty and have some beautifull two tones its really frustrating me. Also I have my booths set up for shooting different colors and I have notice some poeple have a vacum set up ontheres with a filter should I do this to pull away errant powder from my blade? Thank you for your response.
  6. Sorry I am new, wasnt sure were to post I started a new topic though, Thanks.
  7. Hey people, I am new to powder painting and new to this site as well. I have been powder painting for a few weeks now and can do solid colors and two tone colors that have a nice professional look to them, but when I try a 3 tone or 4 tone color on a spinner blade for instance I get a lot of over spray wich clouds the other colors. I have tried multiple angles lowering pressure with multiple angles and I have been unsuccesful. Is this possible for this application or am I trying to do too much. I am using the powder paint gun that is sold by Tjs and usually have my air set to 7-10 lbs. Also my application is to only paint only one side of the blade so dipping is not an option. Thank you in advance.
