Guns guns guns!!!
I'm looking at buying an HVLP gun. The one that I've been using is a no name and I want to step it up for the base coats and clear coats.
In my price range, I've been looking at used Satas and Iwatas which are... still out of my price range. I can buy a new Devilbiss Finishline (which I've heard good things about) for $120. And I can buy a new Sharpe Finex 3000 for about $90. And to top that off, I can buy a new Sharpe 300 (which I assume is the older model) for about $67 shipped. Can anyone compare and contrast these for me? Woudl I be making a mistake buying one of these? |

As far as guns go, I've been doing a little research (by little, I mean just that) and also saw a great article in Car Craft regarding painting your own rides and all the work and supplies needed to prep and paint your ride. I have the article if anyone interested. Anyways, the article talked either piece-mealing your supplies- going to a few to different sources to get this and that and whatever to get the prep/paint materials, or one-stop shopping. Aside from a select few, most supplies, including guns, primer, paint, etc. were ordered through Eastwood (eastwoodco.com). Order up a free catalog and it's really helpful as far as outlining what guns do what, etc.
I'm planning on stripping and painting (black primer or similar) my '29 Ford myself using Eastwood product. |
