Just realized I have a Eureka vacuum that has an exhaust connection, that
can be used as a blower. Thought I'd heard some talk about that being used
for a spray gun attachment - if so, what product and vendor? Pitfalls?
Thanks,

Corinne-- The first glaze spraying I ever did was with an Electrolux
machine, blowing through the spray attachment they had. In principle, it is
very like the HVLP sprayers that have been mentioned here lately.
I love the way they work, because the glaze container is pressurized,
lightly, and pushes the glaze up into the nozzle, like a professional paint
sprayer, but at relatively low pressure. The on-off action is much like an
air-brush.
On the one I had, the air bled out through a hole on the top, and , when you
wanted to spray, you put your finger over the hole, which made the air
pressurize the bottle to push the glaze- I found it quick and very responsive.
Originally, the vacuum people made them for insecticide and related houshold
spraying. You may find one at an old, established vacuum shop, or at a
flea-market.

Bill,
You're right, it is an Electrolux. I will search out the atachment.
Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to hear to spur me on.
What's the myleogram for? Doesn't sound good. Good luck.

BTW y'all my new Kirby GS4 came with a spray paint attatchment and a
carpet cleaning attatchment.
I wonder why, both?

Response to what is a myelogram---it is a roentgenographic study of the spinal
cord with which one can visualize whether or not there are structural chages in
the area studied. Hope that everything was normal. Billy
