Do any HVLP users out there use the viscosity cup? I have been experimenting with oil paints and some waterborne poly. The poly registered a fairly high viscosity with the cup that came with my Fuji, but I am able to successfully spray it without thinning (using a #4 tip). I'm wondering if I will always get better results adhering to the manual's viscosity numbers. Eg, for oil paint they say 20-25, I think (don't have the manual in front of me). The oil I am using is off the charts viscous out of the can. I am thinning to the paint mfgr recommendation, and it still is showing a high viscosity number wit the cup (like 70 or so if I recall). Just wondering if those viscosity numbers are hard rules--do people here follow them as listed in the book? Do you generally ignore the mfgr thinning recommendation when spraying with HVLP and thin to the "official" recommended viscosity?
Thanks,
Chris
