Many different types of spray guns are available, but only a select few are capable with dealing with the latest HVLP (high volume/low pressure) professional materials. However, cheaper alternatives can still be used for a variety of different auto-related tasks.
Professional Use
Professional paint sprayers prefer to use high-end models such as those created by Iwata, Sata and DeVilbiss. Although these guns may initially appear to be extortionately priced, they are actually precision-engineered pieces of equipment that are designed to maximize the throughput of modern water-based and acrylic paint systems.
Feed Types
The latest models are usually built using a gravity-fed design that allows paint to fall through to the chamber of the gun. The paint is subsequently forced through a fluid tip set-up using air pressure, and this causes it to atomize for easier application. Although suction-fed guns are still available, they are rarely recommended for professional use.
Primers
Although industry experts prefer to use top-of-the-range spray guns for applying colors and clear coats, primers can be easily sprayed using budget models as long as they have a suitable fluid tip and nozzle to promote material flow.
