Post PC Cleanup

[HobbyTalk]

I just purchased the hobby gun and have a question about cleaning up after you are done PCing. What is the best way to clean the gun and the gun cups? Would it be best (easiest) to get a different cup for each color?

Since I'll be doing mostly small, small quantity items (2 to 5) at a time, it sure seems like a lot of work for cleanup (if the cups have to be cleaned too) for the small amount of items being done at one time.

TIA for the tips/answers!

Easiest way to clean the gun is to use a air compressor and that usually get's it done QUICK. Usually I use a different cup for each color, and if you run out of cups and want to switch, just wash out the cups and let them air dry for awhile.

something over looked alot is the oven it self, it's really wild the stuff that can accumulate in there, I try...."heavy on the try" to do a COMPLETE SWEEP when im done, its amazing the places powder gets to and hides, and all it takes is one good puff of wind to ruin a job...I clean my gun right away and the spray area. and if im in the mood i'll wash down the spray area. That dont happen alot, usually rght after i have a white pc job that has purple and red dots on it...
