We used about 60 psi of air pressure and mixed about a quart of sealer, which did one wing. (We mixed and applied the sealer used to roll on the bottom skin and brush the corners separately.) If the mix for the sprayer was too thick, my builder added a very small amount of acetone to thin it out a little. We were able to easily do both of my wings with one gallon of sealer. If you use this method, cover yourself as much as possible, especially your hair. Once the sealer starts to harden, it's a bitch to get out.
