Default sold my crap gun now shopping for a decent spray gun

well i returned my harbor freight gun because it kept leaking air everywhere. so want to buy a nice gun in the low to mid $100. i was looking at the devilbliss starting line and finish line guns. any other insight for a good beginner gun?

i actually own the startingline gun,the mini, and primer and it has proven to be a great set. i bought it on ebay brand new for about 140...for being low budget i have had great results i would recommend

I have read on some body forums not to get anything cheaper than the finish line guns. They said the starting line were not that good, but I have'nt used either.

100 $ is not bad but if you want to do some good work , spend the money bout 260 $ is what i payed for mine its 3M and i love it , just take your time to decide , and if anyone u know got a good gun use it and see what you think before u go spending the cash

I was in your dilemma when I needed budget minded guns. Try Sharpe's Finex line.
I can lay down good layers when I'm lazy to clean out my more expensive guns.
Paid $175 for a touch up gun and big canister HVLP gun. I highly recommend them
if your on a budget.

But if your serious and choose to pursue future projects go with better quality guns
instead of cheap guns which will add up $$$.

Remember, your only good as your tools.

sharpe finex and the devilbiss starting lines are definitely good beginner spray guns for the price.

I personally spray sata jets, been spraying sata jets for quite some time, we have about 12 NR2000 satajets in our shop, great guns and last forever. But cost about 5 times more than what your looking to spend. But you may be able to find a used one on ebay or something, id give it a shot if i were you.

spend the extra money needed for a good product and it will pay itself off with quality
