Setting up a paint booth for lacquering?
January 5, 2010
I am currently working for a chandelier restoration company. We send out all of our brass and silver after it has been polished to a local lacquering company. Lately their work has been bad, the lacquer peels off and they have been really slow.
My question is: I have a paint booth set up now, what do I need to do to make this booth safe and effective for spraying lacquer.
What type of filters do I use for the incoming air / exiting air?
What type of lacquer is best for painting Brass?
I also don't know much at all about using a spray gun,what psi to use, how to clean it, etc.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, and any links that you think may be helpful.
Thanks
