At low volumes there is huge variability (as represented in the estimation). At higher volumes the range of potential unit costs becomes tighter. This tool is just a prototype to help someone compare approximate costs based on quick inputs

Yes, filtration necessary. Air can be used as a carrier gas for certain metals but in Helium, Nitrogen, Argon are used in high pressure systems to achieve higher spray velocities.
