    Default Can you leave Pre Cat Lacquer in the spray pot?

    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

    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.
