Hello Brad
I try to use normal SW paint throughout the season. Then, I switch to Hot Line when it gets cooler in OH…like now.
Practically, the SW store normally stocks only one type of paint…the Hot Line…no big deal.
Next…as far as the clumping goes…last night, we had trouble getting our 4-5 inch line…without lifting the gun to a ridiculous height. SO…we added a cup or two of water…to the 4 gallons. We stirred. We cycled…and all was well. The line was fine. We lowered our guns…again…all was well.
Try that. I know it gets cool. I know the paint doesn’t want to cooperate.
A splash of water may help…without actually hurting the paint.
Let me know.
Dan
