    spraying arm-r seal by general finishes

    Has anyone out there tried to spray arm-r-seal ? I have an earlex 5000 hvlp sprayer and would like to spray the finish instead of wiping on.

    Thanks
    Steve

    I've sprayed seal-a-cell on a large desktop slab with my HVLP.....no issues whatsoever (basically the same as arm-r-seal). Lays on a much thicker coat than wiping. Make sure you give it extra time between coats....at least a day maybe longer dependent on temp/RH.

    I started with absolutely nothing. Now, thanks to years of hard work, careful planning, and perseverance, I find I still have most of it left.

    It will spray OK, but you will have a giant sticky mess wherever the over spray lands. It's not like lacquer or water borne top coats where the over spray dries before it hits the ground. It's on an oil based varnish which takes hours to dry/cure. I would not spray Arm-R-Seal.
