Don't cheap out on an HVLP gun. The cheap ones such as from Harbor

Freight
are not for finish coats - good for priming, that's all. Try Sharpe,
Devilbiss, Binks, SATA... talk to auto body guys... also, try the forums

at
www.autobodystore.com


Do not equate price with quality. The HF gun is perfectly adequate for
finish coats. My Devilbiss was long ago hauled away in the trash after

using
the HF gun.


An average gun in the hands of a skilled operator can yield some good
results. For the regular schmo, like me, I have had better luck with the
higher quality guns. YMMV...

Bob (straight up)
