    Spraying varnish

    Hello all,
    Anyone ever use a regular automotive type spray gun to sray varnish?
    I'm just finishing up a sliegh bed i've been making for my nephew and would like to try something differant. I usually do the wipe on Poly thing which for what I do works OK, but is very hard on larger projects. Im putting a coat of BLO on first, let it dry, then spray a couple of coats of Varnish. Does this sound doable with a Sharp's auto type spray gun?

    Thanks,
    Jim Knauss, Sawmill Creek's poor cousin
    PS Here's a Pic of progress so far ( hopefully )
