Carl,

I use gravity feed. But I am no expert. I just find them easier to work with 
when spraying the tub, frame etc.

On body panels, the better guns offer finer tuning of the spray, air vs. paint.

Also I think there is less wasted paint with gravity.

I have used siphon guns before but the spray seems to vary depending on amt of 
paint in the canister.

But before you go out and get your setup, better wait for a real "expert" to 
chime in.

Bob
