Pros & Cons
Pros
The gun sprays a smooth finish. It can run with a portable compressor. Sprayed my metalic like a champ.
For spraying lacquer, this thing works really good. Works great with small compressors (like a 20 gallon)lvlp means less pressure needed, (around 4 cfm’s) i will upgrade the compressor at some point but for spraying thin stuff like lacquer,. Came out ... Read More
The case is so so i can't complain there. Love it. Does a decent job. Everything else seems great and shipping was fast.
This gun compares favorably with the professional guns i use at work. It feels really good and balanced in the hand. It fills my bill 100%.
Cons
Flat-stamped skate key style wrench included is not actually strong enough to disassemble the tool, you have to use a proper forged tool. No telephone number or website or customer service mailing address, no instructions on rma, no nothing.
Highlights
Quality
The gun was really easy to set up and learn how to use and get a smooth finish without too much difficulty sprayed my metallics well too
The gun the wrench all the bits and pieces are heavyduty quality materials
I thinned it with 20 acetone and finish came out flawless
I bought this lvlp spray gun in 2017 but the plastic paint cup cracked after the first time i used it
Price
I still consider the gun to be a great value
But i was amazed by this little spray gun and think it’s a great value for the price
For the price point you can’t beat it
Such a purchase to is likely subject to approval by your domestic cfo
Shipping
Also be sure to take gun completely apart before using to clean all the shipping grease
Packaging/appearance
This kit came nicely packaged with 2 other needles and nozzles for spraying different viscosities
The plastic box in which it came isnt going to last forever but will do for now
Came with 2 mini filters which insert into the gun
Competitiveness
This gun compares favorably with the professional guns i use at work and fills my bill 100
I don’t have any experience with other spray guns so can’t really compare it but this worked great and i have no complaints
Don’t try to compare this to the 1015 “purple” gun
This gun is identical to the expensive iwata’s
