Hey Tony,
Yeah I use 2K Arcrylic. I find it loads easier than the water based stuff.
Setup wise there's not a lot to it.
Mid range HVLP gun with 1.4mm Nozzle.
50L 2.5hp 9.5cfm compressor. It's a bit on the small side to paint a whole car at once with but as I do it in bits it seems to cope quite easily and I'm getting very good results with it.
For me, spraying is the easy part. It's the wet sanding and the buffing where I f*ck things up.
Had to re do one side completely as i caught it with the buffer. To be honest i could probably have got away with it but i want it to be perfect so it got done again today.

We're more or less on lockdown here so i have plenty of time on my hands.
I'll do a proper write up in the next day or two.
Feel free to fire over any questions. Always happy to help.
