Thread: Paint Guns??

Tweet

Just a recent experience to relate: earlier in the week I needed to spray some $195/gallon high temp paint onto some insulation for a machine...high dollar insulation. Because of the crappy nature of the paint, I grabbed an old gun that had been used once in the last 15+ years. What a piece of crap!! I was amazed at how archaic the thing adjusted and how bad it sprayed....a gun that I used to paint cars with 20 years ago.

Just like the Craftsman/Snap On arguments, there IS a difference in tools BUT you/everyone has their personal budget that has priority. I think the major point that Spray and IC2 are making is that if you can do a nice job with a Harbor gun, you can do an even better job with a real gun. If you make money using your tools, you will naturally gravitate to tools you can trust...

What about a Sata. I I have a a 2000 for a number of years now. To me, It's an awsome gun..............

I hate to say it but I have tried every model of SATA's and hated them , big & bulky and never gave me a finish I was satisfied with .
an over rated & over priced gun , But that is my opinion on 30 years of spraying color .
Some guys swear by them , but not me .

I use a SATA paint gun. NOT cheap in any way but as you can see below- creates an amazing paint job with ease. Comfortable in my hand too.
