Target Coatings. I went with Target from a whole bunch of positive posts about it.
I"ve sprayed almost a gallon each of em2000 and em6000 now while learning spraying. I'm getting some orange peel on the outside of a 27x16x7" baltic birch box test. Inside? forget about it. I'm blaming my lack of skill along with the Wagner Control spray max I'm using, so I ordered a fuji mini mite 3 to take care of the latter (and have another post asking if other wagner guns might clear up my issues?)
Now, I know finish allegiance is almost religious, but I wanted to ask for some more recent comments on Target Coatings.
I respect Jeff Jewitt of homesteadfinishes.com and they appear to no longer carry Target. There used to be a ton of positive posts on here about Target, is it still great stuff, or should I look elsewhere? General Finishes?
I prefer to stay water-b* (orne or ased). Is there a better and affordable solution for both clear (leaning to the 6k for clear, 2k for when I'm showing off wood) and for colored finishes on wood?
I was thinking of adding the 6500 in some colors for midcentury modern designs I need to paint in bright colors. Either that or just use enamels, I'm not that far Yet.
I'm pretty happy with the em6000 (and em2000) and figure I'm running up against limitations of my cheap HVLP thus the purchase of a much nicer setup. Do you agree that with the better gun I should expect to be able to get smooth finish results in clear or colored finishes?
Obviously, spraying INSIDE of a box is difficult and will take time to master, but with the unadjustable pattern width of the Werner Control Max, I don't think I'd get there.
Anyway!
Target Coatings em2000, em6000 and em6500: Still well loved?
Thanks!
