    HVLP Score ...

    Picked up a used Fuji HVLP Q4 system today ... at a good price. It is a four-stage turbine and has nozzles for paint and poly ... which should be able to do anything I will need. Though my Wagner FineSpray has done me good, I have to think (and hope) this will be a world apart. Anyone else...

    HF turbine HVLP

    Here's my review of the HF turbine HVLP and GF's Poly-Acrylic. I picked this system up a while back with intentions of finishing this project with it. I hoped it would greatly speed up the process. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=44677 I have not used HVLP...

    Compressor advice for HVLP

    I'm researching portable air compressors that I can use for spraying finishes as well as other shop/garage uses in a hobbyist shop. I'd like to be able to spray latex to lacquer with an HVLP gun (maybe the $80 Husky HDS790?), but have read recommendations elsewhere that I need a 5HP 80 gal or...

    HVLP question

    Has anyone successfully run an HVLP sprayer with a 6-gallon pancake compressor? My father in law insists that it can be done, BUt he's using a full size compressor. I've compared what the compressor says it can put out in volume and what the spray gun wants in volume and it looks like there's...

    HVLP Primer & Paint Tips Needed

    Looks like tomorrow I should be in a position to begin spraying the primer (and maybe paint) on the beds I'm building for my daughter. I had read that the HVLP turbine systems in like mine (Wagner FineSpray) wouldn't do good with water-based products like paint ... so I went to Harbor Freight...

    Devilbiss HVLP Sprayer

    Does anyone have any experience with the Devilbiss Finishline III HVLP sprayer? I’ve just started my research and this gun is one on my list to consider. If you have another spray gun to recommend that would be appreciated as well. Thanks in advance. Mitch Trager

    setup HVLP gun

    I have recently aquired the set of three conversion guns from Vaper and they don't come with any manuals. They have 3 controls; the flow control behind the trigger, the fan control at the top and a third at the bottom where the air comes in that I assume controls the incoming air flow. The gun...

    Split: Northern Tools HVLP guns

    Re: Bedside table project - starting the finish! That sounds like an amazing deal. Better than the wagner or PC gun? I am right at that point of buying my first conversion gun.

    turbine HVLP opinions

    Any opinions on a good turbine hvlp system. My "boss" is getting less and less courteous with his spray booth. :crybaby2: I will only be spraying sealers/laquers. Thanks.

    Hey Guys, Getting awfully confused :BangHead: with so many options for HVLP. I'm looking to get into spraying some finishes (hobby furniture) but don't know what to get. I think a HVLP Conversion is probably the way to go but I'm unsure as to what size compressor I would need. I currently...

    Woodcraft has this HVLP sprayer on sale for $99. I bought the same one at Harbor Freight about 3 months age, same price, and have not used it. Mainly because I have not had anything to spray and I really don't know what I'm doing. Has anyone used one of these and I could use some guidance and...

    Porter Cable vs. Ingersol Rand HVLP Guns

    Went to Lowes today with my birthday & Father's Day $$ burning a hole in my pocket. Lowes is having a clearance on the Ingersol Rand (IR) spray guns. The IR HVLP appears to be identical to the Porter Cable PCSH1 (?) HVLP gun except it's painted black instead of chromed. The IR gun is clearance...

    HVLP Sprayer Recommendations

    Dad's Day = new HVLP sprayer? At least that's my plan!! :lol: Travis, you've given good reviews on the PC PSH1. Have you sprayed shellac and lacquer or just TC USL lacquer? Would I need another tip besides the standard tip? Also, the cup is plastic...any problems there? Did you buy local...

    HVLP finishing

    Well, tonight was the night I finally broke out the HVLP gun and Target USL water based finish I have had about a month, and I can sincerely say this is the only way to go. I will give SteveD credit, he is right on the money on finishing this way. In about 3 hours, I have completely topcoated...

    HVLP spraying

    Based on DavidF's and SteveD's comments on spraying, I have broken down and bought a Porter Cable PSH1 gravity fed conversion HVLP spray gun and want to use it to finish a toy box (once I finish the construction). The directions/manual for the gun is the pits. I want to spray water based as...
