Re: Satin Or Semi Gloss???
Satin enamel by far
Both waterborne and alkyds...they are still split ...at least out here Some high end customers are more environmentally conscience, and just don't want the oils There's still a market for high end customers who figure if it doesn't kill baby seals, it must suck, and if the gov't is trying to take it away, it must be great But either way, it's a satin enamel

Re: Satin Or Semi Gloss???
Hey Tyler, I have two hvlp's & havent used them at least five years. WAY to slow. As soon as I tried the fine finish tips in my airless I was sold. I get the production and the finish I need. The extra masking is more than offset by the production over the hvlp.
