Default Re: Paint type

I've used lacquer and epoxy primer from TCP with no known problems. I had used PPG lacquer prior to using TCP and didn't see much (if any) difference. I did notice that their price for a gallon of Kewanee Green or Elkpoint Green lacquer went up substantially to $229 .

I was using a $500 Sharpe Platinum gun and was getting considerable orange peel requiring a lot of color sanding. I recently bought a Devilbiss Finishline 4 FLG-670 on Amazon for $200 and getting much less "peel", almost as good as a typical new car finish (which isn't saying much).
