The type of HVLP you use is really important. I have a Fuji 4-stage and it struggles with "full weight" waterborne paints for cabinets. I switched to a Graco 495 airless and now use FFLP tips and the finish is phenomenal. I love the 495's digital readout so I can dial in my pressure and log what I like for repeatable results. HVLP is great, but in my opinion you need something like Chris's to run heavier materials. Great video here. Thanks!
Great video! Thank you so much for all you do and all you share. I have an HVLP gun, non-automotive grade, and want to paint my new window jam extensions, sill etc... Its already primed with a really nice primer perfect sheen and texture. How would thin the paint i want to use and what product do you recommend? I bought a viscosity gauge but thought you might have a recommendation. Thanks again, Charles
Hi dey Quick question pertaining to hvlp vs Airless to respray cabinets inside a house i didnt catch the last part what you said about it in your discussion to get less particles falling on the floor which system will u use?
I am a big fan of the previous episodes I’ve seen and this is my first time viewing a live stream. Respectfully, I found the recurring verbal redirections and interruptions of the Subject Matter Expert a wee bit too intrusive by the otherwise lovely hostess. Practicing a bit more patience by the hostess would make for a much greater viewing experience. Again, I did find the content highly valuable, just the presentation could use some refinements, like more “air” and less “overspray” 😇 Cheers!
Depending on how much you need to spray or size of project and frequency. Very small detailed jobs, small compressor or air tank but using some cut stencils you can get an air brush. Air still produce noise and range from "Craigslist" prices to $4k. Automotive paint is HVLP and $25-$135 at harbor freight to a $650 compressor wired to 240 volt A/C and stationary. Some guys will go gas compressors in trucks, hose, extensions and gun so choose wisely grasshopper! ASE mater tech, retired.

nice
Would you still choose an hvlp for 50 doors in a kitchen and would you always choose a renner 2k finish?
I’m interested in this setup. Do you still have this deal with the remote pot?

Can I use a 20 gallon compressor and a hvlp gun? What is a good gun? Remember I am just a DIYer. Light home use.

HVLP has way less fallout and overspray
Don’t know how this came across my screen but I am so fascinated and need to know more.
Thanks
We constantly talk about this at work… super excited about this vid, thanks 🙏

Lol that's his wife and business partner, she knows more than most painters herself.
You are correct
Which one is most like a spray paint can.

Not sure what your asking
Airless all the way
Lol did you watch the video? Right tool for right job. On a fence, HVLP took 3 cans of paint versus 22 for airless and cleanup was miles easier too.
Yep you are right
