PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!! well, kinda... primer anyways...
Nick stealing the spot light from my handi work

pass side

looking down the edge... not too shabby for being a body work guy

also sprayed the rockers yesterday


needs one more coat of primer and then ill start color.
Im having a weird issue so hopefully someone on here has some exp w/ spraying....
I have a filter then dryer then 3/8 line to a regulator attached to my gun. I have a HUGE pressure drop coming out of my dryer... like from 125 psi to ~60 psi. not a big deal because i need to spray between 40-60 psi. but my regulator isnt really regulating... pressure builds to about 100 psi and then once i spray it goes down to about 25 psi. no matter if the regulator is open fully or not.
the issue is i can only spray in burst of about 12 inches then i have to wait. its a brand new regulator, dryer, and filter... im gonna put another reg on but i also dont understand why im getting such a pressure drop over the dryer... anybody got any advice?
