<div dir="auto">Not to discourage buying new tools, but since I worked for Binks through the 70's and into the mid 80's, I accumulated and used lots of quality spray equipment, even an electric airless unit. Painted dozens of cars and thousands of squae feetback of walls back then. In recent years I haven't painted as much, but my old guns still work just as well as they did then, and I know how to use them already.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Karl</div><div dir='auto'><br></div>

<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Ok, so "Sandford"
by big work truck is currently undergoing some major body work and will
be getting new paint. Both myself and my buddy haven't painted a
car since the late 80's.</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I see there are
many different type of sprayers out there for automotive finishes.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">There are the
traditional sprayers with the can under the gun (and what I already have
and used in the 80s.)</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Then there are
HVLP sprayers with the cups on top.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I also noticed
these types seem to be the new norm...</span>

</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">So, here are my
requirements. I am painting this truck, which is a work truck and
does NOT need an awesome finish. I also don't mind buying new tools.</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">So, do I spring
for the 'pro' model HF? I will most likely not be painting another
car for a decade (maybe) so I don't think I need to get into real pro brands
and pay top dollar. But I may paint here and there, NEVER for show, just
for work stuff.</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Or, do I paint
with the old style I already have?</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">What is the advantages?
Is there any learning curve?</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Thanks!</span>
