It's hard see difference in how guns lay clear down, because if you know how to paint (like you do) then you almost automatically make adjustments when your spraying for the best finish. Interesting video tho!
It is really hard to see the different.... All shoot good, Just one is slower and smaller fans.
Exactly what I needed to see. Thank you for making this comparison video!
Good vid Jay thanks for posting and sharing !
All 3 paterns look great. Your just a pro. at it. Great video.
Thank you, I try...Ill never be a pro, Just a user! HEHE
I was just in my local harbor freight in pa. Today 12th of January. They only had the older one on display. So I got on there websites and found the newest one. They were both priced at $178.00.
I got mine at $135 with a super coupon, Join Harbor Freight Junkies on Facebook, You can get 20-25% off coupons when they get them.. Also i do have an ITC membership, I am a Harbor Freight Junkie..... ;)
What was your air pressure on these guns for this
Great video! I just bought the black widow 2 and walcom gauge. Was curious what quick disconnect are you using on the gauge and hose?
amzn.to/3OlJAB6 Its the Prevost High Flow.
@@luxe-kustoms Thanks!!
Ok, it seems like other than the peel, the black widows are more glassed out than the chrome one.. im considering using my chrome hte for base and going and getting the new blackwidow for a designated clear gun. Would that be ideal or should i use my chrome hvlp instead, it has a 1.7 tip on it..
I do know that the Chrome Model, Does well on Base Coat around 22-24 PSI, But on Metallic's, it can lay the Metallic's odd, Just do Med coats and 2 drop coats! I hope this helps!
Thanks so much for this video, but you forgot the Spectrum HVLP Black Widow! Its supposedly better for everything but clear, but still would have liked to see it in the line up.
I think the non widow might even have an HVLP.....
Great video
Thank YOU!
Looking at the peel, I'd say the old BW laid out cleaner than the new.. But, that's same settings and the 2 guns are slighty different, so I'd imagine the settings need slight tweaking. I'd probably try 27-28psi and see if that new one lays a touch better. It looks a lot like a cross between an Iwata and Devilbiss. Both look damn good for the money. I literally just bought the old one 3 weeks ago, now I'm debating if I should swap it or wait for another 25% coupon and just get the new also. Make 1 a base gun and the other dedicated clear.
I've done a few more test, and was able to get it to lay out even better. That was my 3rd time ever spraying with it
budget wise for me I would go with the center then 1st gun if I was doing a repair where I want a little bit of peal, but if I was going for high end I wouldn't use any of them but wouldn't even buy the silver gun at all, but I do like a rear fanand i like a wider fan what was fan size on the New BW
Great review, how long have you used the old widow?
I think over a year now.
I agree the spectrum has peel like my toyota
Yes sir!
Judging off the video it’s hard to tell a good difference between them all. I painted cars for 15 years and all three of those panels are slicker than most factory jobs. A problem I had was not matching colors, it was matching texture. Normally I’d have to sped up or drop back to match factory texture. That new spectrum looks more built like a iwata so i ask is the fan more tuliped tip or is jt more like a standard pattern?
like
Just a standard tip like the DV1's per say!
As a newbie, would a 20gal compressor be enough to paint a vehicle? Was thinking on going cheap but for sure I know a 10gal won’t be enough
You can to check and see how much or how many CFM's the compressor puts out. But if the compressor runs a lot, you'll need to make sure to add a water separator.
@@luxe-kustoms hmmmmmm sounds like a plan.
What spray gun rack are you using?
It was one i designed, I 3d Printed it... I see the STL file to print yourself, Or i can print it. Here is the Link to the print file... cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/spray-gun-holder-pps-v1-or-v2-or-cup-hvlp-or-lvlp-v1. But if you want me to print it, Email me and i can sell you the printed model, I also have a Magnet Model that will stick to anything steel.
I finally got to your review and I think I'm gonna keep my BW HTE 1.0 - No real reason to "upgrade" don't you think?
Your right, No real need to upgrade....Both sprays great!
For the cost of those guns I'd buy a devibis flg 5 or ani 160 and probably still have money left over for cups and have a much better gun you can get parts for down the road. Real test between the three would be base/clear not just a flow coat over clear. And a bigger area but I get what you're trying to achieve. No disrespect intended
The chrome spectrum seems a lil faster than black widows?
Sadly no, It was almost double the arm movements.
You can't get replacement parts for these new guns or even upgrades
Are these guns Hvlp?
Hte
@johnjenson5738 All 3 are HTE = HTE stands for High Transfer Efficiency
The old style black widow sucks. I hated that gun
Why?? I have zero issues with it and have sprayed everything from Primer to base, candy to hs clear with it and all came out great! I do use a Ingersoll Rand with 3 Stage filteration though 😊
