[QUOTE="customcamaro, post: 1418365, member: 551518"] Dont know anything about that specific gun, but I do know that going the cheap route on a spray gun usually turns out to be just that. You have a gun that sprays like it was cheaply made. With the more expensive guns you usually have better atomization, more even spray pattern and in turn less orange peel which creates a more professional finish. Also note that it is preferred to have a different gun for shooting primers, one for spraying base colors, and then a dedicated clear gun. You can get away with having one for just primers and one for base and clears but its best to seperate them. You will need a 1.8 - 2.0 tip for spraying primers and a 1.3 - 1.5 tip at the largest for shooting clear and base colors. I use an Iwata LPH400 for shooting my base colors, a Sata 2000 for my clear, and a devilbiss finishline III for shooting primers. I also will use a sata mini jet4 when working on smaller projects. All these guns are rather expensive when it comes to the auto body painting business but you also get one of the best finishes as long as you know what you are doing. If you plan on doing many jobs and want the best overall finish I would not go cheap.
