I just got back from a flea market where I bought an HPLV spray kit
consisting of a turbine, 10' of hose and an pot-type spray gun for
$40.00. The seller said he had used it professionally for some years to
spray a variety of coatings, but hadn't used it for some time and thus
decided to sell it. I plugged the turbine in and it seemed to run just
fine. I took the gun apart, and though well used, seemed to be all
there. I want to use it for spraying poly on cabinets, and perhaps
painting walls as well, if appropriate.
The plate says it is a model CSI-400, S/N 131469. 11.7 amps, 5 psi, 60
cfm, 2hp.
Elsewhere is a label saying "Softspray" and "400 Model"
Any idea what I got? The Seller says he got it at a local paint store
and that parts are still available. A google search of the web and of
the newsgroups turned up absolutely nothing, which did not encourage me
much. Did I waste $40 or what?
Thanks for any info you may have.

Yes, of course - HVLP. No, it being Sunday, I have not checked the store
yet.
I saw the association with Softspray and Wagner, but their website also
has no mention.
Anybody else have any further info?
At the very least, can anybody comment on the specs mentioned above?
Thanks,
Harvey

I am assuming that's HVLP, not HPLV?
SoftSpray is a Wagner trademark these days, but they list no model
CSI-400 in their manuals.
Have you tried the store he bought it from?
They might have more info.
Sorry...
