Post by: beedees on July 14, 2013, 02:28:17 PM
for something that's easy on the wallet ( HF maybe?). Have a new Sharpe FX 3000 finish gun and am in a learning curve here. First experience with a HVLP gun wasn;t so geat, but I'm getting there. Thanks :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

The small HF touch up gun works real nice, no complaints here.  It's not a $400 Sata but it does get the job done.  Before I assembled it I trued the needle a bit better to make sure the tip was straight.  I used it on several occsasions and it has worked flawlessly.

If you plan on painting every day of the week then you want to get the Pro stuff though.

Sharpe fx3000 will work great for you, I've used one and I liked it.

I have a Devilbiss StartingLine Mini Detail & Touch-Up HVLP Spray Gun. I just finish doing the stencil/camo work on my boat and it worked great. I thought about using my airbrush to do it but the volume of the paint I figured it would take shut me down on that. I bought mine off CL for $30.00 in new condition.
