How do you like those Sata guns? Ive been thinking about breaking down and buying one for shooting clear, but I jsut havent been able to convince myself to drop that much money on a gun I dont use all that often.

Agreed, I have used the top of the line wata guns and a variety of others. It all boils down to preference. My guns had paid for themselves after the first side job. If you don`t have much use for it after minimal use these guns sell quick. If you have your car done at a shop I usually base workmanship of shop off of reputation, cleanliness and equipment being used.
no piano wire?
I have the satajet and can say it is worth the money, I do not know if I would buck up for the Iwata.
Agreed. Sata is the only gun I will spray with.

Finally receiving the last bit of OEM parts from the dealer and some after market goodies by next week to complete the exterior of the car.
Cut and buffed the doors and all loose pcs. Used 1200 grit to flatten surfaces evenly for that slick surface. Proceeded with 1500 grit lightly onto 3000 grit to reduce the amount of time from cut and buffing. I had ordered the Griots 6 inch and 3 inch tools along with their line of polishes. Never used their product and gave it a shot.
All this week will be exterior detailing and careful assembly.

Past few days I have been working on small details while the car is parked in the driveway sun bathing. Purchased a different set of wheels which should arrive this week. Should have the car finalized by the weekend if all goes well.:biggrin:
Hood is just resting on top not bolted till I have the headlights and bumper mounted. Windshield re-installed, correct fender liners installed after I snapped these pics, Shark Antenna, Side mirrors, complete interior back in minus passenger seat, sway bars and constant cleaning of every single little thing before it is bolted on etc etc. My finger tips hurt!

I have my own FDD Marathon Booth. Small pcs were shot in my garage such as hinge brackets, b pillar, a pillars and front lip. You won't be able to tell the difference in quality. The booth actually had more dust particles at one point more than my garage.

Nuno
