You have to be in a dust free place with a big exhaust fan sucking god know what in, and you have to have some experience spraying. And, my experience is with lacquers, and I suspect that today's sprays are water based which are harder to spray than solvent base. So, if you can spray your own car, you're probably good. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Kronquist Sent: Sunday, December 16, 2012 11:39 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Printing Paper Question Ditto Mark R icky icky icky things On Dec 16, 2012, at 5:39 PM, Mark Rabiner wrote: > My experience with sprays going back to 1964 is they are unpredictable > and > unnecessary.
