Default Whats a good but decent priced Hvlp Gun

Im into doing my second DIY paint job and the first time I used a cheap gun from wal mart and it gave me a horrible result. It looked like spray paint. I had to wetsand the car like crazy to get it a little bit glossy. So I want to do it again this time correcting errors I made last time and I want to know whats a good HVLP gun that I can use with primer, base, clear and have minimal orange peel and good spray with it for under $100 if possible? I was looking at http://www.tcpglobal.com/ but I want someones experience with a good one they used.

If you want something good for a beginner go with this:

http://www.sharpe1.com/sharpe/sharpe...e/Finex+FX3000

I know at work we sell them brand new for just about 120+tax.

It's a better quality than some of the Astro guns and some of the harbor freight esque 3-guns for 100 or so.

Just my .02
