Default quick painting questions

OK, i read the sticky on top this forum and found most of the info i needed, but still have a few questions. Simple questions.

1.) Air Pressure. Right now i have my gravity fed gun set at 20 psi at the regulator and when i pull the trigger it stays at 19psi. I read on the chart for my paint it asks for 6-9psi from the gun. What does that mean exactly? When i pull the trigger, is it suppose to be at 9psi instead of 20psi? JW

2.) Tach Coat. Does not count as one of the 2-3 coats right?

3.) Flash Time. My paint calls for 5-10min flash, is 15min ok?

Paint Using: Limco Basecoat/Clearcoat from Carquest.
