Were using a Reactor E-30 and seem to only get about 500 cycles to a CS vile. And at $25 a shot (here anyways), it kind of eliminates alot of profit. How does everybody else fair in this situation?

Example: Most D-gun users trigger constantly, so to transition into this gun, there is a big learning curve to break old habits. Try triggering less. One cartridge should last one kit.

Michael Flander Posted: Aug 26, 2008 05:35 PM	In the US the cartridges are closer to $8 a pop, and most of the guys I have talked to are averaging around a set per cartridge. Some less, some more. In some stud walls you could be triggering up to 3 or 4 times per cycle of the pump depending on the machine, a slight change in spraying habits will help with this!
Greg Pruitt Posted: Aug 28, 2008 08:03 AM	I am getting one of these guns next week. The old stud wall kit stopped up all of the time. If it had not, I would have leved it. What about the newone. does it still stp up, my rep. said it did. If not, I will order one.

clint moore Posted: Aug 28, 2008 02:03 PM	Depending on how you purchase the cartridges they can run as high as $12 per. 25= $12,50=$10,100=$8. the gun comes with 6. According to Graco you must trigger the gun at least 20 time to get the cartridge to start purging. It does clog up less and stay cleaner,stud wall w/tp100 works well.
SPRAYFOAM GODDESS Posted: Aug 28, 2008 04:43 PM	256569 is the part number of the stud wall kit mentioned above, and as long as you do your priming of the gun, which is triggering the gun with material off/air on about 15-20 times, when you start up and re-start after a break, it won't clog. The other fusion stud wall kit sucked. The 256569 will only work with a flat mixing chamber, which depends on the output you want, the kit screws on the flat chamber. For 1/2 lb I used a FL0000 (2929) with a 20/35 Pro, and absolutely loved it, just a single pass straight up the cavity. I still have yet to do the closed cell, darn I knew I was forgetting something.
