Exactly, And you could say why "Spark-O-Matic" bought the Altec Lansing name.It wasn't because they made great speakers or had a great line of products it was for reputation only.As people associated Altec with quality something they couldn't do on their own.:DQuote:

A reverse-a-clean spray gun airless sprayer.If that is any help I was looking for it myself.Quote:

I honestly don't know if this would work...but when you mentioned the 1/4" nozzle...
Texture Paint Spray Gun
Three nozzle sizes: 3/16", 1/4" and 5/16"
Reverse-a-clean seems to be a kind of tip, not a kind of sprayer according to my Google searches. I'm guessing this is a tip used for one of the big sprayers that sits around/on-top-of a 5 gallon bucket.Quote:

No that isn't the one.They use air pressure or a compressor.The aquaplas or antivibe uses a airless spray gun.The reverse a clean tip is a spray gun with a 1/4" nozzle here is the description.
AQUAPLAS DL-10Y is a water based liquid in a heavy paste-like consistency. Use on metal surfaces to reduce vibrations and impact noise. It can be trowelled or sprayed on directly from the drum, or applied robotically, without thinning and during application cleans up with water. A typical set-up to spray AQUAPLAS DL-10Y consists of a 30:1 airless pump, a reverse-a-clean airless gun with a 1/4" round nozzle.
Here's a good explanation.Go to page 5 down to e. Airless Spray

Where did you find this information? The PDF I read said air, not airless.Quote:

Why do you assume the only thing that will work is what the manufacturer recommends?
Often many other approaches work. That $20 gun has the right size nozzle.
It is a gravity feed gun.
If you are willing to make a gentleman's bet, I will put up a C-note that I can make that gun spray that stuff.
Note it's range of pressures and that the material can be thinned.
I am not going to guarantee it will do a quality job, only that I can get it to work.
But for the cost...might be worth a try.
