    HVLP cerakote setup?

    Hey guys and gals. I have the cerakote gun that comes with their kit. I did a really nice job on one of my rifles, then took it apart for cleaning. I can't seem to get it dialed in to spray again.
    I know it's lame to ask, however, does anyone have a baseline I can start with? Like : how many turns out for each knob. This would help me out alot. Thanks all.

    Your problem might be more temperature related. I noticed on a warm summer day I had good results and on a cold winter day with low temps it seemed to want to spit it on. Also the lower end gun they sell is the same one you can get at harbor freight.

        I usually spray some turps or thinner through mine after I use it, rather than take it apart. Never sprayed cerekote yet though...

          Make sure you run the Cerakote through a paint filter after you mix and before you spray. Also check your filter in the Gun for clogging.
