Quote: I painted mine with the correct Lacquer, I used my old school Binks #7 gun, and I still prefer to spray Lacquer..just hard to find.. Use quailty thinner, not the hardware store stuff, spray it on in thin but wet coats..3 coats should do it. It has been about 4 years, but I think I thinned it about 1 to 1 to get good results. The Binks 7 is more like a garden hose than current guns.. I also painted the steering column on a different day with the same paint.
That ol #7 was a Cadillac in its day! Mine is 31 years old and still looks and sprays like new!
I live local to the original Binks manufacturing plant, and was able to buy it direct from an employee, it is a sweet gun... puts out a whole lot of paint...nicely... here is a 69 Charger I just painted.. base/ clear PPG DBC..
