"This
year, I gave up and purchased a professional gun... and all I can say
is what a difference!!!!"
"I've
bought cheaper tools in the past and many times you end up spending more
because you have to go out and buy the same tool again except a better
brand or model because the first one was a piece of junk, but it was cheap...The
higher quality guns, especially the good HVLP's in my experience, allow
you to be much more precise in the amount put into the gun and also onto
the airplane."

COMPRESSOR
SIZE?
For
RC compressor size is not as relevant. Any $50.00 or more compressor
should be sufficient. A compressor that puts out 1.8CFM@40 more
more should work fine. On larger 1/3 scale RC's you want to get
a 1 to 1 1/2 HP compressor or greater.
TIP
SIZE?
|
Due
to the internal workings of these guns they operate with
smaller tip sizes.

"I
have worked in the auto body feild for over 17 years. Get the
Sata mini gun or the full size gun...any gun by Sata is the best
on the market. I paint cars every day of the week and that is
the only gun I use. They are pricy but they are the best."
"The
thing I like about the Sata is the pattern seems a whole lot easier
to control. On the Walcom the best I could get was a 4" wide
fan but the Sata will go about 6". The Sata will also really
flow some paint"

"I
was on a budget but I wanted to get a great finish. I purchased
the Astro and was suprised at how good the finish quality is. I
heard these guns are a copy of the Sata Minijet 2, but I have not
tried a Sata before. All I can say is, I am really happy I found
the Asto mini gun."

"I
tried the HVLP gun from Harbor Freight, and was quite unhappy with
it. No matter what I did, it didn't atomize or lay down paint like
the Badger. This year, I gave up and purchased a professional gun.
I bought the DeVilbiss HVLP GRAVITY SPOT REPAIR GUN, and all I can
say is what a difference!!!! Absolutely the nicest spray gun I've
ever used. Expensive? Yes. But my time, and the cost of the materials,
make it a pleasure to put down a nice finish so easily... Best purchase
I ever made. In this case, quality really does matter." |
