Spray Guns - HVLP

[Doug Bennett]

I have used both conventional guns and hvlp, and the hvlp is hands down my
favorite.  I just bought a new DeVilbiss SRI hvlp touch up gun and the
results are wonderful.  First this gun only need 29 psi at the inlet to
produce 10 psi at the tip.  That is optimal pressure for hvlp atomization
and must of your small shop compressors will keep up with that.   Fan
pattern is adjustabie from 6 inches to approximatly 1 inch.  Over spray is
minmal meaning most the material is going on the project.  Now I don't have
to clean up the entire garage when I'm finished, just part of it!  It really
make painting fun and a lot cleaner.

All,

I've been reading this thread with great interest regarding the HVLP guns. I
was taught to spray with the standard spray gun some years ago, and that is
all I have ever used. I get nice results.

I have always wanted to try the HVLP guns, but just never have. Anyone use
both, and have a preference, and why.

Also, Amir, you wrote:

I've used a DeVilbiss touch-up gun and it's nice, shoots Concept paint at
around 20 psi and the automotive primers at around 40 psi...It's clean and
work perfectly.....Yours for $60 shipped with the 8 oz cup.

Where can I find this gun for $60.00 ? I'd like to give it a try.

Thanks,
