Hello Dratwagon, no the paint I am using is an industrial grade system that is normally sprayed on Mining Equipment and Cruise Ships so needless to say I can throw rocks at the paint surface and it wont even chip. Its very tough. I have been shooting since 1986 when the first really good siphon guns came out that used about 60 to 80 psi to get the paint to flow, I shot all of this with less than 20, funny how the HVLP works now. If you decide to go with the Raptor they have two application methods, there is a roller kit which works ok on very flat surfaces, it leaves a decent texture but it uses a lot more product, I recommend the gun method, U-POL sells and excellent primer gun that will use up to a 2.8 tip. It works awesome shooting the raptor, uses very little air and for the most part in good ventilation can be shot outside in low wind, booth is always best though.
