Default Gun Pressure?

Hello all, Can anyone tell me what pressure to set the gun at for coating? Are there different settings for certain objects and materials? Thanks all!

8 to 10 # is normal , I adjust my regulator on the gun as needed..some times more, some times less...and if I get really frustrated i put it in hurricane mode....

Default Re: Gun Pressure

I set my air pressure at 15psi when I pull the trigger it drops to roughly 10 psi.
Works well.
