Iwata 1.5mm Nozzle Air Gunsa HVLP Sealer Spray Gun (9231)

The Iwata 1.5mm Nozzle Air Gunsa HVLP Sealer Spray Gun (9231) represents a redesigned approach to affordable, high-performance spray equipment. Crafted by ANEST IWATA, this gravity-feed HVLP gun is specifically engineered to provide consistent and efficient application for sealers, and is also highly capable for basecoats and clear coats in automotive refinishing and various general painting scenarios. Its HVLP technology ensures a high transfer efficiency, which means more paint adheres to the surface and less is wasted as overspray. This also allows for operation with smaller air compressors, making it a practical choice for mobile repair technicians and smaller workshops. The gun's ergonomic improvements, including a lighter body and a softer trigger pull, significantly reduce user fatigue during extended painting sessions. Furthermore, the newly polished surface streamlines the cleanup process, adding to the gun's overall user-friendliness. This model stands out as a reliable and cost-efficient solution for achieving quality finishes with ease of use and maintenance.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP) Technology: Delivers superior atomization for a smooth, even finish while maximizing material transfer efficiency, reducing paint waste and operating with lower air consumption.
• 1.5mm Nozzle: Ideal for the consistent application of sealers, and versatile enough for basecoats and clear coats, providing a wide range of utility.
• Ergonomic Design: Features a lighter body and a softer trigger pull to minimize user fatigue during prolonged painting tasks, enhancing comfort and productivity.
• Easy Cleanup: The newly polished surface allows for quick and straightforward cleaning, ensuring the gun remains in optimal condition with less effort.
• Gravity Feed System: Ensures a consistent material flow by utilizing gravity, contributing to reliable and even application.
• Stainless Steel Wetted Parts: All components in contact with paint are made from stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with both solventborne and waterborne materials and providing long-term durability.
• Cost-Efficient Solution: Positioned as an affordable option, offering professional-grade results without a premium price tag.
• 3M PPS Compatibility: Designed to integrate seamlessly with the 3M PPS cup system (Type 43), simplifying material mixing and cleanup.

HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare Material: Mix your sealer (or basecoat/clear coat) according to the manufacturer's instructions and pour it into the 600mL gravity cup. Ensure the material is properly strained.
2. Connect Air Supply: Attach an air hose with an in-line regulator to the G 1/4"M air inlet on the spray gun.
3. Set Air Pressure: Adjust your air compressor regulator to achieve the recommended 2.0 bar (approximately 28-30 PSI) pressure at the gun inlet while air is flowing.
4. Test Spray Pattern: Before applying to your final surface, test the spray pattern on a piece of scrap material. Adjust the fluid needle and fan control knob (if available on the gun or regulator) to achieve the desired spray pattern and material flow.
5. Apply Material: Hold the spray gun at a consistent distance (typically 6-8 inches) from the surface and move it parallel to the surface. Overlap each pass by about 50% for even coverage.
6. Clean Up: Immediately after use, empty any remaining material from the cup. Disassemble the cup and nozzle, and thoroughly clean all parts with appropriate cleaning solution. Run cleaner through the gun to flush internal passages.
