Hi everyone,
I have a stage 5/Fuji HVLP system. I will be spraying pre cat lacquer and as it is quick drying, can I leave the lacquer in the pot or do I need to pull it apart and clean he gun every coat?
Thanks in advance.

Tony,
You asked that exact same question on 1 Sep. You don't have to clean the gun between coats.

perfectly OK to leave pre-cat, or any nitro/paint/lacquer in the gun for quite some time.
No air to get in or out- its a sealed unit.
Just clear the nozzle by using air-out only and wipe the tip clean.
