Thanks for the compliments. I painted my car w/ a Sata before, and can't quite recall what tip I was using. 1.4 for base and clear, correct? What's the 1.3 and 1.5 then for? Any of 'em for primer? Thanks for the tips.

It depends on what type of primer you are spraying. Some you can get away with a 1.4 others require as much as a 2.2.

Ok, sounds good to me. What about 1.3? I heard 1.3 will give a finer output of base and clear. I'm not sure though. Depends on the paint, right?
