I have a Sharpe SGF-HVLP-63 gravity feed paint gun. Its been about 5 years since I used it and I cannot find my instruction book that came with it.

My sealer instructions say "HVLP 7-10 psi and siphon 50-60 psi" My paint says
"HVLP 8-10 psi at the air cap, siphon feed 40-70 psi at the gun".

What is "air cap" pressure? Is that the same as gun pressure? Seems like I remember using 30-60 psi at the gun last time.

Any Sharpe HVLP painting advise or paint tips would be appreciated.
