Hi,
I have got a Gelcoat Gun and find it a bit like using a fire hose.
I am sure it is great for covering a large area but most of my moulds are only about 50mm wide but long.
I only use GC50 at the moment.
Has anyone tried smaller nozzles? If so what size?

Brian.

This is a picture of one of my Moulds.

As you can see it is not very wide but it is long.

I made a modification to the cup gun. I usually only spray about 100g of GC50 which is about enough to wet the cup. I used a 3D printer to make an adaptor to fit a smaller cup. It works quite well.
