Anybody have an opinion on the best paint gun for the money ?
I have been doing decent paint work with a cheap starter type gun but it's time to move on to a better more professional quality gun. My dad has an old Binks conventional he wants me to have but I like the idea of the gravity feed, low pressure guns that use half the amount of paint. Any advice?? Thanks in advance.

Both SATA and DeVilbis make great guns,have both and I have been spraying for 20+ years. If I were to get a new gun today and had a budget of a couple hundred bucks, this is the gun I would get.
Look at the bottom of the page - the DeKups are something alot of shops are switching to as you can switch between colors and clearcoats quickly. but most of all the gun cleanup is quick and less costly as you use a bunch less thinner. As well you can store un used paint for a few days in the cups. This is similar to the gun we ar using now
