Hi, I've been lurking for a couple days now and learned alot!
Im looking to get a new gun for my bike project and had some questions. Right now I have a Binks model 7 and a Devilbiss JGA. Both are pretty banged up and ready to be religated to primer guns. I 'm looking to switch to HVLP since I sprayed with a buddy's HVLP gun and loved the way it sprayed. His was just the purple HF gun I hear some of you talking about.
My question is if the gun is rated at say 9 CFM at the input pressure, say around 30 psi, and my compressor is rated for 11 CFM at 40m psi the compressor should handle the gun, Right? My friend seems to think it won't, but I'm not going for the air hog HF gun I want something a little nicer. I was thinking about a Sharp FX3000. Any thoughts on that particular gun? I only do about 6 jobs a year but I don't want to be waiting on the compressor while I'm painting.
Thanks in advance. Tim
