What tips should I get?

Recommendations are to be used as a starting point reference and are not an absolute application for all refinish material brands. They are not meant to imply that any given air cap/fluid tip combination can not be used to successfully spray any given refinish material. Technique and personal preference must also be considered.

As a general Rule, a 1.7-1.8 HVLP can handle most materials.
If you want a more exact match, Generally, go smaller for Clears Urethanes (1.3) and larger for base coats and Wood Waterbornes (1.5&1.6) and larger still for primer surfacers, lacquers and enamels (1.5-1.8). We recommend the DeVilbiss Guns because they generally come with multiple tips to handle all your finer refinishing needs.
