Still LMAO...

That is either the bitter irony of experience, or a warning of an
upcoming attempt...

Or... could it be... success???


Shellac's about all I spray, and always with an HVLP rig.

Until a year ago with an el cheapo ($150) Campbell-Hausfeld rig; now
with an Earlex 5000 SprayStation ... still mid-level or below.

I usw two cups: one filled with the shellac cut I'm spraying; the other
filled with alcohol for gun storage between coats.

Between coats I simply switch cups, slosh the alcohol around good and
spray some through the gun. When I'm ready for the next coat, I simply
switch out the cups.

The only time I contemplate suicide is during the sanding leading up to
breaking out the spray unit ... and even that has subdued somewhat with
my Festool sanders/vac combo.
