The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Paint and Body Shop Astro paint guns?

Hello again,

Have any of you used any of these spray guns and if so what did you think?

What tip sizes for primers, paints and clears?

When Kyle and I get going we will need to shoot primer first and we will need something for that to start with.

Would like to get a decent gun without spending an arm and a leg for it.

Thanks,

Was reading up on tip sizes and some think that a 1.3 tip might atomize way to good and thus be a problem. Sounds like a 1.4 for shooting the base coats and clears would be a better choice.

For spraying primer that you can block sand would it be better to have a 1.5 tip or something more like a 2.0? reading that some use a 1.5 for primer but have also read where you need something a lot bigger like a 1.8 to 2.0...

A lot of choices out there.
