Hi, need some opinions on paint guns. I want to get good guns that will last and want to practice with the guns that we will ultimately be using/spraying with. My husband doesn't want to spray the car, 1977 Corvette, as he ha no experiencing spraying. We are very hands on and I think that with practice he could learn and if he's good enough we could do the car....with some help. Even if we dont do the final paint on the car, we will be priming and blocking the car ourselves after stripping and adding custom quarter panels (flares). This is also not the last car I (we) plan on doing. I almost bought a Model A about two months ago but was not allowed to since we are not done with the Vette yet. :(
I have been reading very extensibly on guns and have pretty much narrowed it down to the Devilbiss Tekna Copper or Devilbiss Tenka Prolite for bc/cc. For primer the Devilbliss Finishline 4. I want to know if this sound like a good starting combination? Also which is better Tekna Copper or Tekna Prolite?
These would be our, husband's and I, first set of guns. The only issue is that our compressor is only a 60 gallon 3.5hp with 12.85cfm@ 90psi or 14.55cfm @40pi. I am not sure if it will be able to handle these guns. We would only be spraying practice parts, firewall and primer here at the house. Should I consider a different set of guns? Bigger compressor? I am in Miami so hot/humid is an everyday thing that is why I was leaning towards the Prolite. Opinions please!
