Thread: Behlen Hydrogold cleanup.

Hi all,

I decided to give the hydrogold semigloss a go after having a fair bit of success with other waterborne products. It seems to come off the gun ok and the first wash coat looks good. A major problem with the cleanup though, the inside of the gun looked like it'd been coated with white silicon which has taken a couple of hours to clean out. I used the same procedure in cleanup of the other products which is de-ionised water to clean out the product, meths to get out the water then general purpous automotive thinner as a final. At a guess, I'd say it doesn't like the water . Anybody have any clues? I want to rub back and lay another coat tomorrow but I don't want to have to suffer the clean up issue again.

Os
