    Adhesive

    That would have been the best way but they always remove the police sticker before auction and leave a ton of glue behind . That is good advice. Thanks.

    Prep new cast iron.

    Thanks. I paid too much for these lone star corvette calipers with a special O ring seal to pull them apart..I would never get them put back together. As a painter ok ,as a mechanic not so good anymore .lol.

    Prep new cast iron.

    I have some new brake calipers that want to paint . I don't want to sand blast .Do you think a good scrub with a red pad and 710 would get me by for epoxy to stick ? Thanks.

    Vaper 1.4 vs Vaper 1.4

    I believe they are 2 different models. I have had much better luck with the metal cup chrome version. I got 2 for 75.00. one with 1.7 and one with a 2.2 i believe. I use for primer only .If you keep them clean they are a pretty goods gun.

    Air Pressure

    I think they say adjust at the wall ie the regulator in the booth. Always have you pressure at the compressor wide open . A lot of different opinions on this .
