For those of you that use these cups do the built in strainers restrict flow?
There shouldn't be a strainer in the gun either.Thanks guys, I have been using the Devilbliss D cups but the 3M PPS cups eliminate the need for a mixing cup. I will just strain the paint ,reducer and activator when filling the cup.
Removing the strainers is not hard. Cut a hole, grab with needle nose, and give a hard fast pull. I feel the paint(all types) flows better without the strainers after trying it with and without them. I also question how the PPS system vents....I feel it has to restrict flow some how but I have not gotten an answer about that. It certainly helps clean up though. Just remember to not throw away your mixing cup!
He’s saying he pours it through a strainer.There shouldn't be a strainer in the gun either.
I know what he said. I'm saying don't have an in gun strainer.He’s saying he pours it through a strainer.
I cut a slit in the in cup filter and yank it out
It did.I hope you're not speaking from experience, that would suck.
It does not vent--no reason to. Atmospheric pressure on the flexible liner creates no vacuum as the paint depletes in spraying. I use the 3M hard pressure cup for uses with the 2.0 liners and like these way better than just gravity or siphon feed.Removing the strainers is not hard.
