Less orange peel
I have been getting a bit of peel using the 50KV gun. I have found a way to almost eliminate it completely. I don't know if this is common knowledge but hopefully it helps somebody.
Either,
A. Apply powder at lowest voltage. I still think the lowest voltage on this gun is too high. I didnt get any peel with a lower voltage gun.
or
B. This is what I find works real well. If the part is powdered on high voltage just before you think you are done give it a quick dust at low voltage. I have even got good results with the gun off! Just give a light dusting.
I would like to open my gun one day and look at the voltage selector switch. I would love to mod it or add a switch that can drop the gun to about 10-12K. The lowest setting of 35K is just too high for many situations.
