There are several types of spray guns that are used for different applications. Pneumatic spray guns use compressed air to atomize paint into a fine mist. Airless spray guns use hydraulic pressure instead of air pressure. Air-assisted airless spray guns use a combination of air and fluid pressure to atomize paint. Electrostatic spray guns use an electric charge to attract paint particles to the surface being painted. HVLP and LVLP spray guns operate at low pressure to improve transfer efficiency and reduce overspray. The type of spray gun used depends on the viscosity of the paint and desired finish.

What’s next from ANEST IWATA?
For many years, ANEST IWATA spray guns have received numerous compliments on its
atomization technology, but perhaps not as much on the actual design of the spray guns.
Brand new from ANEST IWATA, SUPERNOVA is a spray gun designed by world-renowned
industrial design firm Pininfarina, famous for their state-of-the-art automobile design. Now, superior atomization
technology is combined with excellent design.
Our intention is that you find our new spray gun to be another innovative creation by ANEST IWATA. And, for
those anxious to see what’s next, keep yourself tuned in! We will continue to strive to create something new, focusing
on two important factors that contribute to a winning product: core technology and design.
I hope you enjoy INNOVATIONS!

4. ANEST IWATA’s patented LV Technology is setting the standard by which all other spray guns are measured while
turning paint into profit. This exciting technology is a natural evolution in ANEST IWATA’s continuing commitment
to providing the best spray solutions for our customers.
The unique technology creates a double “engineered atomization” process within the sprayed coating. LV Technology
works by focusing air down the special slits in the fluid nozzle that direct air towards the center of the nozzle orifice.
This change in direction also causes the air stream to speed up, meeting the fluid
in the center of the tip where a powerful pulverization of the fluid occurs. This
pulverization is the pre-atomizing step which expands the paint stream 4 to 5
times that of the fluid opening and it is now a mixture of air and paint rather
than fluid only. This air and paint mixture is much easier for the main
atomization to break up, resulting in lower gun operating pressures. The
secondary air cap piercings then complete the main atomization.
The many benefits of LV Technology include better appearance, better through
dry, and better transfer of the material to the surface. Solvents that do not
escape the film before drying or curing cause many common paint defects.
Solvent pop, die back, shrinking, loss of gloss, softness of film, etc. are all
defects caused by solvents remaining in the paint film. The ANEST IWATA
LV Technology pre-atomization theory minimizes these problems because the
in-flight loss of solvent is greater than with other technologies. Painters who
have made the switch to LV Technology notice a significant reduction in
product consumption and better appearance. Our patented LV Technology is
available in HVLP and compliant high transfer efficiency spray equipment.
Pressure, gravity and siphon spray guns are available with this technology.
0 psi: Note the fluid velocity of the LV spray nozzle has long dwell time in the atomization area
This is because of the concave design of the fluid nozzle
0.7 psi: Notice how the fluid stream is starting to shred and break up these ligaments of fluid
this is the pre-atomization process. Air comes around the tip and then is directed by the slits
to the center of the nozzle that creates the breakup. This is less than 7/10 of 1 psi.
4.4 psi: The fluid is pre-atomization and awaiting the main atomization from the air cap to
break up even further. Note that the non-LV tip is just starting to cut the fluid.

5. The waterborne basecoat paint movement has been taking over many markets in North America. While the collision
business in North America has shown flat or diminished growth, many collision repair shop owners and managers
have been evaluating their business structures. Each shop is different in the methods, suppliers, products and
technologies that make their shop perform at its best, so in many instances, waterborne conversion has been a
technology that many shops have evaluated to be a better performing system over their current solvent systems.
The decision to change to waterborne has presented some issues that our industry has not seen. Waterborne basecoat
systems react much differently when the ambient air humidity level is at 20%, rather than at 75%. As of today,
there is not yet fast-drying water or slow-drying water, therefore atomization is critical for the best performance in
different application environments. Fine atomization is necessary for best performance when humidity is high, and
coarse atomization when humidity is low.
We have created simple to use and easy to read HT (Humidity and Temperature) Charts for each
paint company’s waterborne system that will help guide the painter and our customers with selecting
the best performing ANEST IWATA spray gun setup, based on relative ambient humidity and
temperature. The HT Charts show the gun selection by matching your humidity level on the left and
your temperature on the bottom. The color key shows which gun with nozzle tip size listed in the graph
color for the best recommendation for your waterborne paint system.
As always, airflow across the coated surface is also a necessary requirement to get best performance from
waterborne coatings. ANEST IWATA’s ADG-1 drying units are available as a solution. As a reminder with
waterborne, after application is completed, thoroughly clean and dry your spray equipment (inside and out) to
keep it at peak performance levels.

SUPERNOVA:ASTARISBORN
A STAR IS BORN
Both HVLP guns are available
with either a 1.3 mm or a
1.4 mm nozzle size,
depending on what brand
of paint you are spraying.
The basecoat version is
designated by the gold
colored air-cap.
When we talked about a new spray gun, we
decided that we needed to be innovative. Our
customers needed something new, so we enlisted the
help of the world-renowned design firm Pininfarina,
famous for their state-of-the-art automobile design.
Anxious to see how they would handle a spray gun, the
Pininfarina design far exceeded our expectations. After the
gun design was complete, we incorporated our advanced
atomizing technology and the SUPERNOVA was born. This
premium gun combines our superior atomization control with
production speed and ergonomics. There are two HVLP versions of
the SUPERNOVA, the LS-400 for clearcoat and the LS-400 for basecoat,
and a non-HVLP version, the WS-400.

PERFECT BALANCE
The Supernova cup angle design guarantees perfect balance,
regardless of what cup size you choose.
QUICK RELEASE AIR CAP
The larger thread pattern of the air cap
makes it both robust and easy to remove,
and is designed with low maintenance in
mind. The new larger grip points on the outside
of the air cap ring facilitate quick removal and
refitting after cleaning.
RESPONSIVE TRIGGER
The responsive trigger action gives the painter stable airflow control
during application. Accurate air pressure can now be set with either
the air stroke or the fluid stroke.
ERGONOMIC GRIP
An in-depth study by the University of Pavia into perfect balance and optimal ergonomics
was closely considered by Pininfarina designers and ANEST IWATA engineers to produce a
state-of-the-art spray gun. The slim ergonomic grip of the SUPERNOVA spray gun helps distribute
weight and balance through the wrist, reducing the risk of repetitive strains,
PERFORMANCE
The SUPERNOVA delivers a consistent droplet size when atomizing. This, combined with the flat,
even SUPERNOVA pattern, helps application issues. All SUPERNOVA guns are equipped with
stainless steel fluid passages ideal for any type of material, solvent-borne or waterborne.

to refinish their products, many struggle with the art of touch-up and simple spot
repairs. Most repairs are small in nature, and the use of a quality touch-up gun
or airbrush makes the job simple and fast. The object of doing a touch-up or
small repair is to keep it small and unnoticeable; by using a touch-up gun or
airbrush, you will be able to control the amount of fluid and size of fan pattern
much better than with a full size spray gun.
The ANEST IWATA LPH80, LPH50, RG3L, or any one of our
airbrushes are the perfect solutions for any touch-up and small refinish
repair, whether in the shop or at the job site. Both guns are small, lightweight, and
designed to produce a high quality finish for stain, dye stain and clear topcoat. Since they
use only 1.1 to 2.1 cfm, any small hot dog or portable air compressor can be used to operate
these guns. This will save the shop time and money by doing the repair
on site, rather than removing a door or cabinet and returning it to the
shop for repair. As compared to a full size spray gun, or even a
turbine spray system, the ANEST IWATA LPH80, LPH50, RG3L
or other airbrushes are very versatile, easy to use, and will make
any touch-up or refinish repair quick and easy.

AWFS 2009 RECAP
ANEST IWATA USA, Inc. participated this year in the AWFS
2009 show in Las Vegas. Even with the tough economy, the
2009 AWFS show was a huge success. We showcased our latest
equipment, including new manifold guns, five gallon bucket-
mounted pump with agitator, and 13:1 air-assisted airless system
with the MSG200 spray gun, which provides a great solution for
waterborne stains and topcoats. Some of the other highlights
were our double diaphragm pumps and extension guns.
While the AWFS 2009 show didn’t set any attendance records, we noticed steady booth traffic and a more motivated
buyer profile. With the hard economic times facing the industry, distributors and end users visiting the show were
there to buy. This made for a very satisfying show experience for our employees, and accumulated many solid leads
for our distributors across North America.
Our thanks to all of our distributors and end users for attending. Be sure to check us out at IWF 2010 in Atlanta!

TECHNICAL DISCUSSION with “MITZ”
PROPER AIR PRESSURE IS CRITICAL
In INNOVATIONS Issue 6, Fall 2007, I talked about the importance of using clean
air to prevent paint defects. In this issue, I want to talk about the importance of your
spray gun’s air pressure setting. As you know, paint atomization in a spray gun is
created by the impact between paint and compressed air at the tip of the spray gun
nozzle. Each gun is designed to provide the best spraying ability at certain settings,
which are described in the instruction manual or catalogues for each of our spray gun
models. Every ANEST IWATA spray gun is designed for use with the setting of each
adjustment “fully open.” The main thing you need to be concerned with is the inlet
pressure, or atomizing air pressure. Every instruction manual, catalogue or tech
sheet has the correct spraying air pressure. It is critical to follow these air pressure
recommendation guidelines to get the right finish. You need to check this air pressure
at the inlet of spray gun when the trigger is fully pulled with the fluid stroke. I am
going to explain simple ways to set up the spraying air pressure using our 8018 and
8130 AK-1B airflow valves and 8131 AK-1R regulator.
SETTING THE GUN USING OUR 8018 OR 8130 AK-1B
AIRFLOW VALVES
The 8018 and 8130 AK-1B adjustment needs to be fully open and then adjust the
booth inlet air wall gauge until the needle on the valve reads the appropriate pressure
for each specific gun or even a little higher just as long as the inlet pressure to the
gauge is less than 100 psi.
Please make sure that the inlet pressure to these gauges is less than 100 psi since the
maximum inlet pressure of these airflow valves is 100 psi. In the case of the 8130, if
the pressure exceeds 100 psi, the swivel joint will leak or the rubber o-ring inside the
swivel blows out the side or the gauge needle will pin at around 5 to 10 psi even if no
air pressure added. This is to protect you and your spray gun since the maximum
pressure of most guns is 100 psi. This safety warning is printed in the instruction
manual and stamped on the gun handle opposite the label LPH400, W400, etc.
We realize that many shops have more than 100 psi inside a booth for different
equipment, and this seems to be the main cause for this problem.
SETTING THE 8131 AK-1R AIR PRESSURE REGULATOR
Since the 8131 AK-1R is a true air regulator, you do not need to worry about the
inlet air pressure. The maximum air inlet pressure for the AK-1R is 250 psi.
However, it will only allow 50 psi to exit, so you do not need to worry about 100 psi
being the maximum air pressure; just supply enough air from the booth wall regulator.
Before connecting the air hose, make sure the knob of the AK-1R is fully rotated to
counter-clockwise. This prevents letting the uncontrolled air rush into the spray gun.
After that, supply the air from the wall regulator, and adjust the inlet air for the spray
gun, rotating the knob of AK-1R clockwise until the gauge shows proper air pressure.

2009 ULTIMATE AIR AFFAIR
DONN SHANTEAU
September 3-6, 2009 marked a unique convergence
of airbrushing luminaries in Salt Lake City Utah for the 2009
Ultimate Air Affair. They were summoned to the shores of the Great
Salt Lake and guided to the fortress of “Kreative Kool” by the siren song of
Sherri Candland. Sherri is the host of the Ultimate Air Affair, and one very cool customer. The
mission of the airbrushing illuminati was to enlighten the Ultimate Air Affair attendees in the ways
of airbrush effects and custom painting techniques over the three days of classes. This “Dirty
Dozen” of instructors consisted of some of the most respected airbrush painters in North America:
Mike Lavalle, Fonzy, Gerald Mendez, Brian PaPa, Ron Gibbs, Pamela Shanteau, Steve Driscoll,
Bob Soroka, Jason Doll, Steve Vandemon, and the irrepressible Craig Fraser. The wonderfully
talented Deborah Mahan was not able to attend the Event as an instructor this year; she was
missed, and we look forward to seeing her at future Ultimate Air Affairs.
The aforementioned fortress, also known as Automotive Spray
Equipment Technologies (ASET), houses what is possibly the
finest airbrushed art gallery in existence and the infamous
“Voodoo Lounge,” where the airbrush instructors let their
hair down and “paint from their hearts” as they enjoy the fel
lowship of their peers and the workshop attendees during the
three days of classes. This year, the instructors airbrushed
puzzle pieces in the “Voodoo Lounge” that will be assembled
on the wall in the foyer of ASET.
The “Air Space” gallery at ASET is a cornucopia of airbrushed art that spills out towards the viewer
from virtually every angle. Incredible masterworks airbrushed by past and current Ultimate Air Affair
Instructors adorn a wide variety of objects, including pedal planes, snowboards, guitars, and cocktail
tables. These items cover the wall space and floor to create a truly “sens-surround” experience.
Of course, the lounge and art gallery are only “sauce for the goose.” The “goose” for this gathering is the information
and techniques that are on display in the various classes that take place over the three days of the Ultimate Air Affair.
The instructors cover a wide range of painting techniques in their classes, and all are experts in their specialties.
Students from around the globe have homed in on this event to get the finest custom airbrushing and pinstriping
instruction available in the world.
The 2009 Ultimate Air Affair was a wonderful success, and a great experience for all who attended. All of the
students earned an I-Car certification for airbrushing, and got to see how the finest airbrush artists paint, up close
and personal. This first class event is a must-attend function for anyone who desires the finest in airbrush and
custom painting instruction!
