- These days, most of the HF-grade $39 guns are allegedly "HVLP". Then there are the "real" HVLP setups that have a special electric-powered air source that resembles a vacuum cleaner in reverse. Which

- I'm not smart enough to answer your question... I really can't see investing 4-600 bucks on a 'turbine system' for only one vehicle but I think I want a better than |H.F. outcome ... I think. H.F.gun

- Usually you use a bigger oriface and needle for primers. Don't remember the number off the top of my head. I've got an HF. $59 HVLP gun. I've used it for primer and top coat. No complaints, but then

- I am not an expert either, but I think you are wrong in thinking that the only "real" HVLP setups have a special electric powered air source. I think that there are many HVLP guns in all price ranges

- I have a turbine type HVLP setup and a Sharpe Platinum HVLP gun that runs off of an ordinary compressed air supply. In my experience you _can_ use the turbine gun for both epoxy primer and hardened a

- Recently I took my HF Thirty-Nine Dollar Classic and an old siphon-feed non-HVLP gun, and tried to figure out what the difference really was. The size and pattern of the air holes looked pretty simil

- Oh, about $300. :-) A HVLP gun reduces the air pressure within the body of the gun to a lower level, producing less overspray. This also means that the mechanism to feed the paint to the nozzle has t

- I, too, have a Sharpe Platinum HVLP gun. I also have a far less expensive Devilbiss siphon feed HVLP that I bought so that I could utilize my extensive collection of siphon cups, including an 8 oz. s
