Fall 2023 Showcase: Fuji Q5 Platinum
George VondriskaThere’s no easier way to mess up a project you’ve got lots of time in than having the finishing step go badly. When it comes to applying finish there’s easier way to do it than with an HVLP system like Fuji’s Q5 Platinum. There’s lots of good finishing stuff going on here.
The Q5 system consists of a turbine and HVLP (high volume low pressure) gun. Getting your finishing air supply from a turbine instead of a compressor means cleaner air, and better control over the air flow. No oil or moisture in turbine-provided air flow. The Q5 is a 5-stage variable speed turbine, so you can fine tune the speed for the finish you’re spraying. The PSI output ranges from 6.5 – 9.5 PSI.
The turbine has been specifically designed to run quieter than similar units. (That’s the Q in Q5.) It also has heat dissipation built in, which will extend the motor lifespan.
Spraying with an HVLP gun means less overspray, so you’re saving money on finish. It’s ending up on your project instead of the surrounding environment.
Lots of good features stacking up to help you get the best possible finish on your projects.
