You may be right. The problem I referred to occurred at about 70 degress with MR 186 reducer, which I believe is in the correct temp range -- you can correct me. I believe the film was wet enough because I was painting almost to the point of runs and sags. The sides looked perfect with virtually no orange peel. My thinking is that the problem is my technique. I also believe that your non-hvlp guns have a wider pattern than mine, and that you can cover a larger area, perhaps getting back to it faster than I can, or perhaps due to the wide pattern, you get a certain area covered in one pass where it might take me two. (This conflicts with my earlier response, but I think it can go both ways). But, my main problem is that I don't paint often enough to develop a technique. I answer questions about procedures and types of paint -- that does't mean I'm an expert at knowing how to use them. Only way I can do that is more experience.
