As soon as my tax refund hits the bank. I have an hvlp turbine but no gun other than a tank type and will be spraying nitro and trying out some water based finishes. So, I would like to see what others are using, why they like or dislike them, and any spray cap suggestions. I just need full hvlp only, no conversion guns please and hopefully under $400. |

I'm very happy with this fellow. http://www.woodessence.com/Walcom-EGO-H ... 13C54.aspx It does everything I want it to do for instrument work including the alcohol based burst I just did. Dialled the gun down and it worked great. I use a 1.2 mm tip. Good to for you guys to be buying out of Canada. You get an extra 10 cents on the dollar. |

If you already have compressed air this is the best gun I have found for doing small things like guitars. http://www.devilbisseu.com/en-gb/produc ... -spray-gun |

Thanks Howard, I do have a compressor, but it's an old leaky clunker that stalls the motor if I don't shut it down first. I've learned how to work around it's issues but a couple of years ago a friend gave me a 4 stage turbine so I built a cabinet around it and have been wanting to buy a gun for it. Looks a little like an Apollo only blue. ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 |

Thanks Todd, My turbine does have a bleeder port and I've attached a piece of hose to extend it outside of the cabinet and it does work. Also I bought the hoses from Phelps refinishing so I think I'm ready for a gun now. The Dear Leader says He will gift me a refund this year( yikes! did I just set myself up for an audit?). |
