If you use paint with hardener, you MUST use a supplied air system, for others a charcoal mask is adequate. Do not use alkyd enamel from a farm store, it will fade before you go to bed that night, then turn pink. The minimum standard is IH 2150 sold by your Case-IH dealer. It is an "acrylic modified" alkyd enamel, that is, it is alkyd enamel with UV inhibitors added to slow fading. Real acrylic enamel is better, better still is acrylic urethane. CIH 2150 and acrylic enamels can be used without hardener (most of them anyway), acrylic urethane must have hardener. Lots of info on the Paint and Bodywork Forum. Forget the airless sprayer. If you use HVLP match CFM required by the gun to the CFM put out by your compressor. HP means nothing. Put the water trap as far as you can get it from the compressor, mine is about 90 feet -- no moisture at all in the paint.
