Default best hvlp gun between 100 and 200 bucks??

looking to give painting my bumper and hood one last try before i bring it somewhere, but i definately need a new gun first. i dont want to spend a lot, because i can just go bring it to get painted somewhere, but at the same time im not looking for some 50 dollar harbor freight gun. whats out there?? painting is new to me, i spend most of my time with a wrench and a wratchet

Yes, DeVilbiss makes a good gun for the money.

Yeah, I haven't tried out the Finishline products yet, but I do like DeVilbiss. I'm thinking about getting a set of them for base and primer.

I use my SATA Jet RP Digital for clear coat with a 1.3 tip, I love that gun. I used to use a DeVilbiss GTi Millenium for base, it's a really good gun.

hey guys, I am doing the $50 paint job. I am going to spray it though. I just picked up a harbor freight hvlp gravity feed gun for it. Is there really that much of a difference between the HF and Devilbiss? Anyone with firsthand experience? I am thinking the HF will be "good enough" for what I am doing, but if I can pick up a better gun for a few $$$ more, I will get it.

Never used a HF gun, Devilbiss is just known for quality guns, like their GTi line. I would trust Devilbiss over HF. Even though the finishline guns are low end guns from Devilbiss, I'm sure they are built well.
