Yes when I did shirts in Florida it would kill me cleaning out colors especially White or Black. It would double my time compared with the others with multiple gun setup. It would almost double my time. Of course it depended on the design. Believe me from experience a multi setup is best and the customer gets less frustrated. If you can't afford it like I couldn't then work you way up to it.On the color change aspect of siphons and sides..Its just a simple case of having a spare bottle with water or the cleaning agent you prefer..and is only really required when going from dark to light colors..Light to dark its just a case of taking the bottle of, spray through any residual paint in the gun and then attach the new darker color and keep going, the lighter color will blend and disappear within seconds..It isn't necessary at all to have multiple brushes unless you plan to use gravity's for the job..many pro's do have multi gun setups because they may prefer gravity guns as it does speed up the process by about 10 seconds LOL, but if doing 30 shirts a day, or 100 tatts that small amount of time does add up to be fair but realistically your talking a loss of a few minutes of your day..Saying that when I was stuck with a gravity and my Anthem was down, got just as fast color changing but it did waste more paint..What a gravity can't do is keep on keeping on so time is also lost constantly stopping to refill you paint..and in that process of stopping tip dry occurs and slows you even more..Plus one gun and 20 paint bottles is much cheaper to set up and start a business than 20 guns for individual colors.
