Default Close to buying 30 - 50 KV Crswell

Any opinions on this gun?

I need it to coat suspension components The power I need is a GM Chassis correct Semi-gloss (80 % gloss).

I talked with Crswell customer service, they say they do not carry it.

What other powders are compatible with this gun (where could I get the GM Chassis correct Semi-gloss ) ?

I'm not sure who would carry that color powder. Your biggest problem probably won't be finding the color but finding it in quantities less than 50 or 100 pound increments. As far as powders compatible with the gun, the gun won't be able to tell who made the powder. It's not any different than liquids. Same gun will shoot lacquers, enamels or urethanes.

Autoshopowner,

If you can find the correct GM powder color you can shoot a 80% clear over it to give you the gloss that you want!

I believe you will find that TGIC black satin will do the trick. That's what I use, and get great results.
