weWhat is the application then? I thought that he was painting a car? I would suggest a DevillBis GPi which can be supplied with 1.4 and 1.8 tips, so dual purpose. Spraying Jotun however may not be so easy, I would reach for my gravity gun with 2.2 if there was some reason why I couldn't brush it on.
That having been said, I use Lechler universally having not been impressed with the time it takes to flat the Jotun back for finishing coats.
guns can be purchased at Hi-Tech in Anchorage.
That graco is it any good for steel work, railings, gates and trailers?what's your dad's gun best at spraying? If it already does epoxy then get a decent gun specifically for paint.
I think I got a 1.5mm tip on my Graco Finex HVLP gun and it sprays all sorts pretty well... did an entire car in metallic paint a few years ago and it sprayed primer, base and clearcoat just fine, could have done with a smaller nozzle for clear to make it easier for me, but it managed to lay a lovely deep clearcoat without any orange peel.
Nowadays it gets used for etch primer and thinned down trade paint on steelwork....
It works... but it's not great for speed.That graco is it any good for steel work, railings, gates and trailers?
