Hello to all;
I have several needs and am wondering if an HVLP gun for use with my
compressor will do them all. I'm pretty sure the compressor is big
enough for the gun.
I live in Arizona and need to treat some rustic lumber for UV. Its so
rustic, and there is quite a bit so a brush won't work, and its part
of the house so I need to be real careful about overspray.
I also have about 150' of wrought iron fence around the back yard pool
that needs a new coat of black enamel.
And last, I am an intermediate skilled woodworker and would like to
use the gun for finishes on shop projects.
The local BORG had a HVLP Campbell H. brand gravity fed gun for about
$80 bucks. Has anyone had any experience with this gun? Am I barking
up the wrong tree?
Any help is greatly appreciated. - Jim
A HVLP conversion gun working with a compressor equal to or greater then
it's requirements for both PSI and especially CFM will do what you want.
However, for doing large jobs such as you fence, you may find the limited
volume of a gravity feed cup a bit frustrating.
