Default looking for web site with homemade paint wand

Posted this in the C1 section but figured this may be a goo bet too...

Hello,

I had found a web site that showed a guy restoring a mid year vette and he made a home made paint wand out of plastic tubing that he was inserting into the A pillars and rockers and so forth. There was more great info in the write up too. But I lost the link for the site and have exhausted my search efforts. I think the guys name was Steve.

If anyone has info or a link to help me find this please post up.

Thanks a lot.

What I have done is to use a 3M body schutz gun with a hose I attached to the end with a small hose clamp. Depending on what enclosed space I am spraying you can turn the pressure way up and the paint flies all over inside the space. Can't give you any scientific results other than it really unloads the paint. If you can't find a photo of what they look like I will post a photo-Jim

Thanks Jim. Just ordered the shultz gun and 3m wand and some zero rust. I am going to spray inside of the donor windshield frame befor I weld it on the car. Don't want to have to make this repair again ;-)
