Whats the best paint guns on the market at present, I remember Devilbiss used to make a good gun, not real current on good sprayers, so figured I'd ask you guys what should I be looking for to get that like new sheen on my big bolt.

If it's old and rusted out.... Well it's probably mine.

do you have a price range? And this is like asking which is better ford or chevy, it's all in who you ask. Devilbiss still makes a good gun. A gun is limmited to who's hands it's in.

no more than 500.00, I want one that is reliable, shoots smooth, and isn't prone to clog too easily. It will be a while before I buy, I've been looking at the DeVilbiss Millenium series guns, as well as the sti series touch up guns for close up work in the cab.

I've looked at spray guns recently and, Devilbiss has a good hobby set for about $159.00. This would be non production work! And they are HVLP? I recently purchased a Sharpe Finnex nice gun, lightweight, different caps available to shoot base and clearcoats. 79.00-139.00 conventional or HVLP!

The more one spends on a spray gun the more one needs to make sure each and every time the gun is cleaned to like new condition. I have a devilbiss JGA spray gun. I have owned it for the past twenty years plus and it has always done me well. It cost me somthing like ninty dollars new. I can clean it in just a matter of a three/four minutes and it's ready for the next time. I often though about a HPLV gun but the price is more money. A new JGA gun today is $300.00. A HVLP gun is lots more money, however the saving's in paint will off set the price in short order.
