Can you use this for Duracoat paint for firearms?

Yes you can use Duracoat and Ceracoat. I use both quite frequently. You will have to thin the mixture a little more than recommended, however it will not affect the finished product. I have done several firearms since I purchased this airbrush kit and all have turned out great! Some applications are nearly a year old, on firearms that are carried daily and there has been no issues with holster wear or knicks.

I would use it over any paint or stain. You may want to check the directions on the paint since it may already have wood sealant and protection, but an extra coat of Thompsons would probably add some additional protection. Make sure the paint is completely dry before using the Thompsons.

This question was sent to me in an email which had the subject "can you answer this question?" I clicked "Yes,[I can answer the question]". But the answer is "Probably NOT a good idea" My comment below gives more details. But if you are not well experienced with using epoxy paint, I would not recommend you use this gun for experimenting.

Yes but you have to take the gun apart though you could paint over it as well however the reason the tip is colored orange is for law enforcement and other people around you to recognize it is a toy so if you are going to remove or alter it don't carry it with you in public because it is illegal and you can get in a lot of trouble so i would not advise that you do that unless you are just using it in or near your house.

I have sprayed Duracoat with this and it worked perfect. I have not done a side by side comparison.

I don't think you would want to use on the actions. It works great to lube cable housings I use it in the shift cable of my UTV to keep it from freezing in the winter. It is a liquid and if you get it on your hands it has to wear off. I think it would be way to messy to use on a gun action.

The Deoxit could crack the finish. I would avoid any spray on the paint/finish, especially if it is a Nitro finish.

Yes you can. It will come off but you will pic at it and lightly scrape it. It isn't like real paint. I suggest that you Practice on several pieces of card board first before applying to anything. To get the desired affect the first time. I have it on all my hunting gear now. Guns, bows everything.

Yes you can however make sure to sand and clean the frame first..... And spray approximately no closer than 6 inches away to prevent the paint from running. This spray paint is one o the best I have used.... Great for stuff around the house and other stuff. I will upload some photos in the next couple of days.

I have only used it with the fluid film gun as I would not want to use this material in my paint and thinner guns. The fluid film gun did a very good job for underbody on my vehicle and the spray cans with the plastic spray tubes worked well getting into tight places. For this to work as formulated I would not want to change it's effectiveness by cutting it. You will see when you spray it it's fairly thin and will drip off as it builds up.

I don't think so. It has no control over the spray pattern. It is for spraying such liquids as WD40 and other chemicals. I would not even attempt to use it for paint.

It works great especially for the newer paints. To test it after buying it, I sprayed epoxy primer (1.8mm tip), base color (1.5mm tip), and urethane clear (1.3mm tip). The gun performed flawlessly. I would suggest you keep a cheap gun for the primer and use this for color/clear, so you don't have cross-contamination from the primer. I use a Husky HVLP (about $50) that works great. I would buy this gun again. I use it on classic Corvettes....

I doubt you could use it for fabric paints. This product is not intended for spraying paint; rather, it is used for spaying watery liquids. It should accommodate anything that your standard "trigger" pump spray bottles can but you don't have to kill your trigger finger.

I wouldn't think so. I have not done any spray painting so a Iam by no means an expert. I would think the key to even application of paint is constant pressure. This compressor cycles frequently to keep pressure in the tank. Note I am using for airing up automobile tires. Spray painting may draw less volume down and thus the compressor maybe fine depending on the air requirement of the paint spray gun.Good Luck

Yes, just about any paint that you can think of can be put through this sprayer. The real real question is "should it be used for house painting." The answer is no and the reason is simple. Tp paint a house, you need a thicker coat of paint and a much larger reservoir than the single quart that this unit offers. This unit is excellent for jobs such as painting patio furniture, a child's wagon, etc. For a house you should look into an airless paint sprayer which pumps a thicker coat of paint through the paint nozzle (and with a wider spray pattern). Check out the following Amazon web page for various examples:

No, it only puts out 0.51 SCFM at 40 psi, so not enough volume for almost all spray guns (it would be ok for an airbrush). Look for a compressor that is specifically stated to work for painting (this one is for filling bike tires, running staple guns and low duty cycle nailers and such that have moderate to high pressure requirements, but have low CFM requirements).

yes, but I wouldn't recomend. I would use a control spray, which is to be used only with oil base paints.
