Just a suggestion but consider <http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605
_00916472000P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1> and
<http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+G7000>, add
<http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+P6600-20>,
<http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+P6600-25>, and a couple of
<http://www.tcpglobal.com/spraygundepot/itemdetail.aspx?
itemno=TCP+AR8062> and you're around your 500 dollar mark with a system
that will spray just about anything and run air tools besides.

Note--the Sears compressor will be fine for painting cabinets and the
like--mine's smaller and does fine--if you're doing houses you'll want a
bigger one, but if you're shooting houses in latex you should look at
airless anyway.

No not painting houses. Used mostly for cabinets. Need something portable.
