ANI R160-Q First Spray and Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Here is my first spray and thoughts on the new ANI R160-Q from Spraygunsdirect.uk. I sprayed Tamco 9500 30min High Impact high solids clear coat. This gun only uses 3.7CFM and is perfect for us small compressor guys. At only $110 USD plus approx $20 shipping to the USA, I think you would be hard pressed to find a better gun for the value!

Awesome video. Thanks for the play by play commentary. Especially with the flash times, what to look for with the stringy clear, & most importantly the psi. I am looking to purchase this 160. Thanks again!!!
No problem man. But every clear coat is different. Make sure to follow the tech data sheet flash times for each type clear you use. Let me know if u want to see anything else. 160 is a good gun.
@@BrusHstroKeZ what compressor do you use? And is there a air gun that is suited for a compressor rated for 5.6CFM @ 40psi? Thanks
I have a 30gal Masterforce from Menards. Link to video on it below. I use an Iwata LPH-80 mini gun for most of my work, 2cfm. Another good low cfm gun is an ANI-160 from spraygunsdirect.uk, 3.7cfm. ruclips.net/video/urszkETe9Io/видео.html
@@BrusHstroKeZ thank you! Do you think the Iwata would be suitable for furniture and woodworking projects?
@@Samho1982 Yes depending on how big ur projects are. It only has a 4-5” spray pattern. I’ve done 3’x4’ signs with it no problem. Anything bigger, I’d go with he ANI. That one has about a 7” spray pattern.
Good review, thanks.
ThankZ!!! Hope it was helpful.
Thanks for the video. I have 3 of the ANI R150T and just ordered the R160-Q with 1.0mm. Ever try Sherwin Williams Finish1 FC710 clear coat? I'm wondering how it compares to the Tamco HC9500.
I try new clear from time to time and always kick myself and have to go back to the FC710.
I do wheels and the Tamco HC9500 looks great, and sounds like it would be great for wheels as well.
Also have a build video on your spray booth?
Subscribed.
Don’t use my ANI’s much anymore. I’ve only used Tamco clears since I started painting, other than HOK at training with them. 9500 would be great for rims. Cures super fast and extremely durable. I do have a paint booth build vid here: ruclips.net/video/Jbz0MVdFJro/видео.html. I’ve made some updates to it since and plan on doing a home studio/shop tour vid soon. Appreciate ur support🤘🏻
@@BrusHstroKeZ I appreciate it, thanks.;
Great video thanks.
toyotrustPR ThankZ! Hoping to make a comparison video with this vs. the R150 soon.
Hi great video can you tell me if this gun is suitable for woodwork,ie cabinets,I'd be using a cellulose and a water based paint any advice much appreciated mate
I can’t speak for cellulose, but I primary use water base paint and I use a very high solid/thick clear coat. It workZ great with both. For the price, u can’t beat this gun. Depending on how big of stuff u do, u may want the full size version of it, the ANI F160. This gun has about a 7” fan pattern and the F160 closer to a 12” pattern. I don’t use mine much though. Search “Pete’s Hobbies ANI” here on RUclips. Great channel and has several great vidZ using both guns and telling u all about them.
@@BrusHstroKeZ much appreciated,I would be using it on awkward places in kitchen,and staircase spindles thanks a mill
Nice work! Do the MPS disposable cups connect to their own adapter, or do they connect to a PPS adapter?
ThankZ David! They use the PPS version 1.0 adapterZ.
If your using the link below for your pps system....it says 125 micron. If your using createx colors. You should use a 200 micron. They recommend it!. Especially if using pearls, and hot rod sparkles
I pull the screens out if I’m doing coarse metallics or hot Rod sparkles. I haven’t had any issues with pearls. Createx does recommend 125micron for sealer and candy. Most of my painting is small stuff and I don’t even use a cup. I got them mainly for clear coating. They have worked great for me and been through 2 1/2 boxes so far.
. Awesome! I did not know that about the sealers. I thought they where recommending 200 across the board! That is good to know!
@@chetlangford2144 No problem man! Createx mentioned it during a recent vid of them doing the tour of their booth. They say 190micron for pearl, but no issues with spraying or pearl orientation with the 125’s for me.
@@BrusHstroKeZ what size ml or oz pps cup is that?
They’re 6oz. U can get them in multiple sizes from tamcopaint.com as well. Theirs have the red ring and the measuring markZ on their hard cupZ.
Yep. Deffinetly got to get one. Do those cup liners collapse while spraying?
SW Customs Yes, they do collapse. You can spray upside down with no issues, love it, not to mention so much easier to clean. Let me find the links I have for them and I’ll add to the description in a lil bit when I get on the computer. I have my Amazon Associate link for them or a 15% refer a friend coupon direct from the supplier.
Ok the coupon is not for 15% off, it's for $15 off an order over $75. Or you can get them on Amazon, free shipping, not sure about to Canada though. I added both linkZ to the bottom of the video description above. And, I highly recommend the gun! You won't regret it!!!
Just learning about spray guns , when you refer to 40 psi , is that with the the air in a static reading or with the air actually flowing through the gun ?
That refers to the pressure at the gun. All ur spray guns, u should have a pressure regulator right on the gun inlet. PSI will reduce as the air flows through the gun. Example, 40psi at inlet regulator at 40psi, is probably closer to 20psi out of the gun. Hope this helpZ! Any other questionZ, let me know🤘🏻
The owners manual stays between 32 to 34 psi
how is this gun holding up? I was considering ordering one. Do you have any issues with the gasket after cleaning?
Holding up good. No issues yet. But haven’t used it a much lately. Been using my LPH-80 a lot.
@@BrusHstroKeZ as someone who has used both, which one would you recommend for clear coating purposes and why?
between the 160q and lph80 ofc
I definitely prefer the LPH-80. I really haven't used my ANI's at all recently. Might end up giving one of them away at 1000 subZ.
@@BrusHstroKeZ i figured so especially with the iwatas receiving high praise left and right. I might just end up getting an ani for basecoat and stick with an lph80 for cc. Thank you for your response!
csi is bad ass!!!!
Yes it is! Almost makes buffing fun!!!
Can you use the new fluid tips on the older model
jay Man Unfortunately no. They are different sizes.
why arent these things available in the States?
John Miller I’m in Iowa. I ordered it from Spraygunsdirect.co.uk. Check them out. They ship super fast. I get my guns from them usually in 5 days or less.
They are! You just have to buy them from spraygunsdirect.co.uk I got several from them with no issues. Fast shipping too. Make sure you creat an accoumt so that you don't pay VAT tax.
sir do you know the Exact size of thread of pps youve use?
I'm not sure of the thread size, but I use PPS Version 1.0 cups and adaptors, and it's the #12 adaptor for this gun. Hope this helpZ!
hi, do you know the difference between "ANI R160-Q" and the "ANI R160-T" ?
And how big is your compressor tank or cfm for that gun?
I want to spray smaller things like gaming-controllers or consoles and don´t know if I can get away with the 24 L compressor, which puts out 86 L/min. I know the requirements are a little bit higher, but I don´t know if it will still work, as I don´t spray big surfaces
I think the difference in the 2 guns is they added 2 holes on each of the horns, as the T only had one maybe. There have been 3 or 4 versions, each with a slight change. Finish was the only chance one of the times as well. The R160 uses 104 l/min. U can do small stuff with it still though. I've used a 250 l/m gun on my 200 l/m system, no issue with small stuff.
What size fluid tip are you using, i ve got the old r150 in 1.2
Hi Artie. I also have the 1.2 on both my ANI R160 and my R150. Don't think I'd want anything smaller.
Where did you get that adapter for the 3m cups? TY
I think I got this one from Spraygunsdirect.uk, where I got the gun. I’ve got other ones off Amazon and Ebay before too.
@@BrusHstroKeZ what part number is it? thanks buddy
It's PPS 1.0, Adaptor 12, Part # 16022.
@@BrusHstroKeZ Sweet! I just have to go 5 miles down the road they have it in stock! Thanks man!
This gun doesnt spray clear well until close to 60 psi. If you want glass finish, crank that psi up.
Yeah, needZ really high psi to work right. I should do an updated review. I don’t care for it and maybe used it twice since this vid.
@@BrusHstroKeZ you don't like the gun? Or you don't like spraying at the psi? Did you like it at that pressure? I shoot clear with a 1.2 mini.
This gun is really finicky with waterbase paint, and why I don’t care for it much. I have an LPH-80 1.2 with the E4 air cap and I love it! Use it for almost everything now including clear. These don’t compare to it. Going to try them with solvents since I’ve recently started using them. May work better with them. Try to do a follow up vid soon.
@@BrusHstroKeZ I actually like the Ani. But I know what you mean. The iwata lph-80 is awesome. It's a great gun. I sprayed the Ani with candy .8 and I was pretty impressed. All around 30psi. Half a turn for spray pattern and half way for material. Yeah man thanks for the info
Sweet. I’ll be trying my 2 ANI’s more soon. Been soooooo busy, I’m going to need to use multiple gunZ to be more efficient. ThankZ for the spraying’ tipZ with it! Kinda excited to start using them again.
Bro, What model
PPS Adaptor use for R160Q?
It’s the #12 adapter. That’s for version 1 PPS system. Not sure what the adapter is for version 2.
First you have to learn to use your camera.. 😅
I’d ask for ur help but doesn’t look like u make any videoZ. PS- used to only have an old iPhone with no widescreen. Was almost impossible to quality vidZ.
