i have done a search but cant find anyone in my position

i have a 7.5 cfm compressor and i am spraying a whole shell in cellulose paint

i have a suction gun at the moment which is unreliable, i was thinking about a hvlp gravity fed one for around 20 quid

would this be work?

what has anyone else used in my position

i have a water filter and can limit the pressure from the compressor,

thanks

you should spend the money and buy something a bit more expensive for the best finish mate. i use a cheap hvlp grav fed gun for primer and basic applications of paint around the garage but i will be buying a newer better quality gun when i come to start proper painting of my shell. best get cooper shaz etc to give you some advice they know the score.

SATAjet 3000 RP. Now THATS a gun. The GTi is good, but you can get better. Cheap guns are okay if you're a confident sprayer, but expect to do alot of sanding and polishing to get a decent finish!
