Spray gun recommendations.

[julianf]

I hope I'm still allowed to ask questions which may be a little stupid. If so, here goes:
1. Does changing the nozzle size have any bearing on the air consumption?
2. Are all epoxy primers two pack? (I've seen some epoxy primer in rattle cans.)
3. Is the term 'high build primer' still used and if so does it really mean anything?
4. Does anyone make a gravity gun between a mini and full size?

1) you will need different pressure to get the same atomization with a different nozzle.
2) I've seen 1k ones advertised. I'm very dubious of them.
3) high build is kind of like sprayable filler. It sands way easier than epoxy, but has all the permiablity (spelling?) issues of standard filler.
4) probably, but why? There is cross over in nozzle size between spot repair guns and normal guns anyway. So you have the whole range covered as it is.

I've now ordered a Clarke spray gun with a 1.4mm nozzle. I've also ordered enough bits to plumb the air along the garage. Once this is finished and the mass of tools are sorted out of the way I'll start my restoration.
Many thanks for all the help so far.
