hi guys just had an terrible time trying to spray gc50 through my cupgun! 
it would only spit droplets and very unevenly.. (havent used the cupgun before)

 i ended up after several changes to the settings having to use a sponge brush which i know wont come out great but the gc50 was already mixed
can you please tell me 

  • the recommended psi for gc50  
  • the recommended g100 tip 
  • and if possible how many turns from closed for the wheel at the back


Cheers
ps: might be a nice thing to list on the product page for other people

Thanks for all the help and advise Smile
I think the problem may have been using the 4.3mm nozzle (have a 6mm on order) and will have to double check everything is inserted properly
I'll try again next weekend after releasing and cleaning up my molds again . 
Cheers
