Hope you enjoy this video, and it helps you with your project! If your new to the channel or have any questions about your project let me know in the comments!
what size compressor where you using about to order this gun and repaint my sons z28 camaro thanks for the info
@@DJJDSKREWED I'm using a a ingersoll rand full size compressor.
@@GarageNoise how many cfm? and or gallon tank im looking to buy a affordable compressor to use this gun for my home body work
@@DJJDSKREWED ok, Buy the most cfm's you can afford. My compressor produces around 16 cfm I believe it's a 60 gallon but that doesn't matter as much as the air production and hp. More horse power the quicker your compressor will recover. For painting it's all about the cfm's. Hope this helps there's alot of other factors to consider when buying a compressor. Like what's your power source do you need a single phase compressor or a three phase. Appreciate the support hope this helps!
@@GarageNoise thank you very much! im going to shoot for a 5.9 cfm 29 gallon 2hp one from harbor freight !
Indeed I did...the outcome was beautiful. Great job. I'm 66 and you have inspired me to paint the door of my 1998 Corolla.
That awsome! Appreciate the comment and support!
You are incredible, always helping your subscribers with information and clarifying our doubts, for those of us who do not have a painting camera or money to buy $700 paint guns. If you have that result without a painting camera, I can't imagine the result if you had a special room. thanks for all your time. You are the best brother
I appreciate you! All the support inspires me to reach deeper and bring better content every week! Thank you!
Finally!!!!
Somebody explaining and using this type gun!!
I’ve been researching my but off trying to find the best gun for my application. I wish I would’ve saw this before I bought the Harbor Freight purple gun. But it’s ok. I’ll still use it for something!
Thanks for this video!!!
Was going to get the “spray it sp-352” with the swivel side cup for painting upwards.
Great 👍 ! I'm from Nicaragua and there haven't yet pro-sprayguns that those are very expensive, for pocket and this one low price but you show me perfect option and how to use it. And can see a beautifully paint work , Thanks 🙏 . Stunning finish!
That lt100 is a great gun.. great video as always!
good timing on this video. I have the eastwood lt100 and right now I am in priming and blocksanding stage on my project. Basecoat/clearcoat is coming soon and I was not sure what settings I should use, now I do! Thanks for the great video.
Happy to to help! Hope everything goes well. Appreciate the comment and support!
This was just what I was looking for! Thank You!!!
Welcome brother! Appreciate the support!
That's the clear I'm using on my Wagoneer project. I don't know any different, but it works for me so far and it's easy to spray with my LVLP.
👍appreciate the comment and support!
Thanks again great video.
Im restoring a C10 and doing prep work. I have a Devillbiss FLG5. Been trying to decide what to do about the compressor issue. Its a one time paint job. Dont want to buy a big compressor for a one time job. Dont want to buy a small compressor and not have the low CFM issue and dont really need a compressor for anything really. I think Im going to rent a compressor from a tool rental shop. Ive never seen any RUclips channel mention this option. They rent 15CFM gas powered compressors for $150 a week or $60/day. Have the CFM needed, no big outright compressor purchase, no big compressor collecting dust when Im done. Just need a hose, filters, pressure gauge.
Very useful info! I've been using the blue Astro gun but am getting a lot of material in the air when clearing. The Sprayit/Eastwood gun looks like a great option for my garage spray projects.
Are you using pps cups? That happened to me and i got rid of white plastic cups with the small filters that go into the cup. The big filter on the pps solved alot of my issues with budget guns, saved a ton in cleaning time and materials with disposable
سلام استاد برای پاشیدن رنگ متالیک آیا باید حتما از سری سوزن نازل ۱،۵استفاده بشه❤
Great finish i bought the kit that comes with the mini gun have not use the big gun i used the touch up gun and worked great with me 30 gallon tank
Oh that's cool, good to know! Appreciate the comment and support!
Thanks for sharing all this info for us home gamers.
My pleasure, appreciate the support!
GREAT MASTER AND GREAT WORK , SO BEAUTIFUL ! THANK YOU . GREETINGS FROM PERU. ESTA MUY INTERESANTE ESTA PISTOLA. TENGO UNA LVLP Y TRABAJ MUY BIEN.
Thank you for taking time to answer my question, it means a lot to me. I’m new to painting I wanted to know if I have to press the trigger all the way down when painting single coat or laying down base coat or clear coat, thank you
I upgraded to a 2 stage 60 gallon, but still use this gun a lot for base. It works and overspray is pretty low. And my compressor doesn't have to work too hard. In fact, will be using it today on a Ford truck
You pretty much confirmed that it's working flow is waaay higher than 4cfm.
Good job on videos my question is how do you deal wit all the over spray. I see stuff in your shop that's gonna get over spray. I keep looking at that tool box which is like one of mine. Do you usually cover everything you care about?
Thanks that was really a blessing knowing I can paint without a massive 60 gal - 80 gal expensive compressor. Great video !
Upol makes good stuff. I've used the 2253 primer that sprays great as a high build or a sealer. The 2882 clear lays down nice also. I'm not sure how good the UV protection is, but for the price, it's worth it.
For sure, feel the same way. Appreciate the comment on your experience. Thank's for the support!
Try the Novol "Protect 360" 2k epoxy primer - you'll like it.
I couldn't tell from the video, but I regularly would wet the floor with some water to keep down and trap dust on the floor. I painted several hundred cars in a homemade cross draft booth and would always spray a mist of water on the floor and walls to wage war on the ever present dust. Nice video. I'd like to try that gun out.
Absolutely great tip! Appreciate the comment brother!
Nice job!!!
👊👍
man thank u....i have that central pneumatic 21 gallon compressor and i wanna paint my mustang bumper now i think i can...ii subbed to your channel...gonna pick up the lvlp 610 or 500 today
Just ordered from Ali (50$ an r500) because of you, tho I have about 6 (hvlp) paint guns already. Keep it up! Greetings from Hungary
Thank's brother! Appreciate the support!
I like the ASTRO gold gun for the same purpose. I think it gives a nicer clearcoat finish that this gun and it's not that big of an air hog. Uses more than this gun but still within the realm of possibility.
Perfect
Very nice!👍
Thank you! Appreciate the support!
Interesting! I've just ordered a R500 so I'll see how I get on with it! Thanks for the tip. :)
Let me know how you like it!
@@GarageNoise It will be a couple of months but sure, will do!
It's a great gun
Thank you for making this video. I am getting prepared to do my first paint work (hopefully this summer) and I am interested in this gun. The info you share on pressures, spray distance, and speed great. I am curious to know how this gun would fair with laying a drop coat for a metallic paint.
I've got a new video on this gun check out the channel. I blend a red pearl
@GarageNoise Will do. Just subbed. I have already found a ton of info I will find useful on the project.
@@MontsweagGarage awesome!
Looks great. Wonder how well it holds up over time. It's been a year. Any feedback on durability?
Thanks!
Welcome!
is the ok for if i spray in my garage? would it be safe if i say just had one extraction . wearing a respirator and overalls of course
Thank you
You're welcome
Great video! Thanks! New to auto painting….. do you think this gun can be used to spray an epoxy primer? Most likely will be using a smaller 20 gal compressor as well
Yes but you need the one with multiple needle sets I'll leave a link amzn.to/44Be1t2
So this is the same gun just updated version but it comes with a 1.7 tip and needle set an that should be big enough for epoxy.
Spot job looks good 👍 gun sprays well. What temperature did you paint??
Thank's brother, It was about 75-80°
Out of clear coats that you've used, what would you say is the best "budget" clear coat under $200 ? I just started watching your channel recently. Very good videos keep it up!
I like the nason 498 clear for under 200.00
Or matrix ms52
amzn.to/3Akhhvx
Thanks for sharing the information you provided. Are there any spare parts or rebuild kits for the "R500" variants on the market?
So many different brands sell this gun. Even eastwood's lt 100. Aero pro a 610, yt160, inokraft d1.
Yes, you can get new needle set. I really don't think there's any part to go bad. Theres No gaskets, may be a o ring but that's it.
I'm painting with the Eastwood low cfm gun and a 29 gallon harbor freight compressor and I have minimal issues.
Eastwood Lt 100, great gun I have one. I believe it's the same gun rebranded. Appreciate your comment!
Hi mate I really ❤ your video
👍
Great video and information. I'm trying to word this question to my best ability. Between what minimum size compressor to the maximum size compressor would this gun be suitable for. Do you have a compressor or compressors in mind that you can recommend? I am planning to try to paint an engine bay soon once the motor is out if not the whole car using a 110 socket at home in my garage. Appreciate any feedback, Thanks.
For this gun you want a compressor that produces 4cfms or above. When buy a compressor for painting a car the cfm it produces is what matters. I always say buy as many cfm's as you can afford. I don't have one to recommend . May have a video in the future for this topic. Hope this helps. Appreciate the support!
Hi, from Trinidad🇹🇹, i had this problem when i recently sprayed my car, air fluctuating. 28gallon compressor, ...im going to have to get this gun.
It really is a great solution. Appreciate the support!
Luv it.
Q: Because a lplv gun sprays slower, if I’m doing a full car should I use a slower reducer so I can finish a side before one end begins to flash over/dry?
Yes, a slow reducer would be the right choice. Unless it's cold when you paint. Your referring to you base coat correct?
Yes Sr
You mentioned using the Clear Coat Fast Activator, but the can in video was Standard Activator. Does that make any difference in the application as you described it?
Do I need a gun adapter for the disposable cup set you have listed in description. And are the adaptors universal?
Yes you do, the adapters are not universal for every gun. I got mine at harbor freight. I think it it the 3/8 female don't quote me tho.
Can you use this gun for epoxy primer as well as base coat and clear coat?
I've been watching your video's on this gun and a few other things. Seems like the right gun for my needs.
I was just wondering, do you have a link for the correct adaptor to fit the disposable cups you use? I'll be using the same disposable cup system.
A link for the gage would be great as well.
Thank for sharing.
This link is for the yt160 which is the updated appearance of the orig R500 and this one come with the adapter and some cups amzn.to/3QDxeEE
@@GarageNoise Thank you.
Much appreciated 👍.
What size tips are you using.Thanks
Nice video brother, Would you say this Sprayit gun is better then the Orange Astro gun Lvlp ?
I would say it's definitely more versatile because of the low air consumption. Both are great budget guns .
I watch your video's I work in a body shop i trim a lot of parts an use to paint looking to buy my own gun for own projects but dont want to tie up a lot cash if i dont have too
thanks for the reply.
This would be a goid one.
How much flash time do you allow between the clear coats?
1 question.. if you got the perfect texture...and no need to cut and buff.. but it has dust nibs.. what do you do to keep the proper texture without making a flat spot??
That might be another video lol but I use a small block and 2000 sandpaper to remove dirt nib then sand a larger area with 3000 then a larger are with 5000. So gradually working out. The difference in texture is basically undetectable. Appreciate the comment and support!
Dang son! Hammer time 💧
👍👍👊👊
What’s the most used size on your masking paper I’m looking at buying a masking stand not sure on what sizes I’d use most currently I just use 3m plastic to mask but paper would be handy here and there
I use 18inch and like you I mostly use plastic. Appreciate the support!
@@GarageNoise thank you for the reply! Do you ever use the small like 6-8in say for like inside mirrors or tail holes
What are the specs on the air compressor you used for this? I’m interested in a lvlp gun/ small compressor setup for my garage. Any help is appreciated.
Nice video. What size needle and fluid tip did you use? Reducers and their percentages?
1.3 fluid tip. Paint reduction for nason is 2:1 clear is 4:1
@@GarageNoise No reducer in the clear, just the hardener?
@@michaelbell7465 no reducer in clearcoat. I know others do it but I feel it lessens the effectiveness of the u.v. protection and in turn the durability. Honestly it's not needed for most clears. If you feel you need to always check the technical data sheet. Good question, appreciate the support!
Question ;
I’m going to be using the Aeropro A610 to spray my Ram truck in a base coat jet black and clear coat
1. What pressure at Gun Base coat ?
About 24psi , fluid at 2.5 out from closed and adjust if needed
thank you so much i have a 100 litre Hoteche 3HP BUT I THINK ITS MORE LIKE 2 HP compressor its the cheapest i can afford and i have the sprayyit 5000
👍
Thank for such an amazing video. Just curious ..what is the difference between this clear and UPOL 2882?
2882 is a overall clear if you painting an entire vehicle .
@@GarageNoise Ahh, ok. I'm painting a motorcycle gas tank so it's not a very large area but do you think the 2882 is the better choice? Just need something good yet forgiving. Thank you
@@scottdilalla 2892 is the better choice because its for small parts one or two full panels, it will dry quickly . 2882 will work tho .
@@GarageNoise great!! Thank you!
Chris could you please tell me what the best mini spray gun for a low compressor would be that I can use over and over again in your own opinion
Sprayit makes one haven't tested it. Also astro makes some that I hear are good but again I haven't tested so can say for sure.
Sata 4400, pro lite mini. Mini guns use less air than full size guns so they work well with small compressors.
What compressor did u use?
What pps adapter work with this? I have the original pps which works with the harbor freight knock off stuff which is nice if I run out on a weekend.
Not sure of the size but it's a female adapter that i got at harbor freight. I want to say 3/8
@@GarageNoise thank you keep up the good work I’ve painted a dozen cars from learning on your videos
Great video! Looks like these guns spray very nice. When compressor size is not an issue, would this be a better gun when compared to the HF black widow or an entry level Iwata? I ask because I will be spraying a classic VW van using an inflatable booth, that is slow removing the overspray.
The van bolt on panels will be sprayed first then later the roof and then the body. With the R500 gun would I still get good results with the larger panels on the van.
Would the parts dry time be an issue with a smaller fan and possibly spraying at a slower speed?
I will like to be able to follow the paint wet edge without the clouds of paint in the air and it looks to me that one of the benefits of this gun is not having a thick cloud in the air.
Greatly appreciate your advice.
You do get less overpray with the R500 but do sacrifice a bit of speed. You can increase your speed with the R500 by reducing the spraying distance. For your situation I think I would use the R500 on the loose part and the black widow on the body of the vehicle. You can get just as nice of a finish with the R500 tho. It sounds like a fun project shoot me some photos after paint. I might be able to share with the community. Garagenoise247@gmail.com
P.s. R500 Fan size I don't find to be an issue. About 10 inch
@@GarageNoise thank you for your advice! Would the R500 be able to do the body as well? The roof will be the largest panel i will be spraying first by itself. I ask because I will be afraid of having different texture using two different guns.
I saw another video about the R 500 a few years old, and the person did not recommend this gun for a complete job because it doesn’t have enough volume and will leave dry edges when working large areas constantly, according to him.
Looking at your videos looks to me that is capable.
I think spraying a little slower may help me focus on how things are laying down, don’t know if that makes sense.
I will definitely send you some pictures of the process.
Thank you again!
What is the model and stuff for that adaptor and cup you are using on this gun
The adapter is a 57505 spectrum from harbor freight or a 3m legacy #2 adapter. Here's a link to the disposable cup kit amzn.to/3GZgzqq
Appreciate the comment and support!
Just in case I missed it ,but what size tip is on your spray-it spray gun?
It's a 1.3 appreciate the support!
Chris which clear do you like better? The Upol or the Finish 1 FC720
I perfer the upol just because I usually buff the next day if it needs it and the finish1 is still a little soft the next day it will buff out but it takes longer. Both are great tho.
Hi great video. I’ve read for paint spraying the minimum cfm is around 12. Would this gun work with a small compressor, if so can anyone recommend which size/brand. Which compressor was used in this video, please. I’ve been looking at HVLP turbine units for painting but compressor/ gun setups seem quieter, give a finer finish and are perhaps less costly.
Personally I would go with a compressor gun set up. Yes , this gun will only require around 5 cfm's of air to spray properly, that's what's so unique about this gun. So most 20 gallon compressors will work well. I always recommend getting the most cfm's you can afford. I use a large compressor and don't have any recommendations for a small compressor at this time.hope this helps appreciate the support!
@@GarageNoise many thanks Happy New Year
27 gallon Fortress from harbor freight produces 5.1 CFM
That’s what I’m using with an R500 works just fine
@Garage Noise - I was thinking of spraying the basecoat at 28 psi but now seeing the finish on your truck im doubting myself if I should go lower(painting my whole hatchback) 😅
Yeah for basecoat you can probably go with less pressure 15-20psi
@@GarageNoise even if its a pearl basecoat I shouldnt have any issue spraying it at 15-20psi?
@@luisdiaz9142 even if it's pearl base, the color should not effect how the basecoat sprays. Unless you've added some coarse metallics.
Can this be used with something like a 6 gallon or should I just stick with rattle can
You need a compressor that produces at minimum 6 cfm's of air.
is the paint gun better then the little astro gun? clear looks good
It's as good as the astro. The astro is a great gun but this is more versatile since it uses less air. Both spray great tho. Appreciate the comment and support!
I have seen other videos adjusting the psi and they set at 20-30psi is there a reason why you would set at 15 psi?
It's all personal preference. For base you want it a bit lower 15-25 for clear generally 28-30 depending on gun and type of clear your using. I will adjust my base coat pressure according to temp and color high metallics I perfer the air pressure a bit lower for metallic orientation.
I have a 60 gal.125psi, 13.5cfm compressor. Would that be over kill for this gun? Or Would you recommend a different gun for my compressor?
It's not overkill, this gun will preform Ethier way.
You could use any gun with your compressor. Just depends on you needs. Cost, skill level, pro or hobbiest
My local store only stocks the UP2882, can you use that as well? What's the biggest different between that and the UP2892 that you mention?
I have a question.... while you are letting the paint flash do you remove the paint from the gun? or can you leave it there?
No need to remove the paint from the gun. Until your done with the project. Appreciate your support!
What regulator were you using on that paint gun? I like the digital gauge. My current gauge is a little foggy due to cleaning the gun and the gauge has a plastic face!
That is a harbor freight air gauge.
@@GarageNoise I havent had luck with the harbor freight digitals. Ive had to return 2 of them 🤦🏻so i ended up getting the analog one instead
@@luisdiaz9142 yeah, I had to return one as well. I have like three of them. Sagola makes a great one for $50
what hp and gallons is your compressor?
@Garage Noise it sounds like you've been using these lower CFM guns for a while now, do they keep working upon cleanup just as well? In fact, could you do a video on cleaning your guns? My brother and I have this debate because he doesn't break them down saying it's bad for the tip, he just fills the cup with lacquer thinner and sprays it out a couple of times where I break them down and try to clean the tips and pieces. 🤷 What is your experience in this area?
I break them down when I need to. Usually when it's not spraying right🤣. About once a month i break them all the way down. Otherwise a quick clean does well. It doesn't hurt anything tho break them down and clean tho.
@@GarageNoise thanks brotha 🙏
What do use to mix the paint base coat with??
Not sure what you mean?
With the LVLP gun, how much clear are you using on each panel?
Roughly about 6oz
what do you think on using this gun with single stage paint
I think this gun would do just fine. I don't shoot a lot of single stage these days but have in the past with guns that are similar with no problem. Appreciate the comment and support!
Thank you...
Do a video with duplicolor please...
Will do! I'm planning a few videos using only Aerosol can for the diy guys!
Yes👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Appreciate it!
Hi I’ve just been given a compressor to use to spray my van and it’s got 1.5hp / 6L / 115psi / CFM 7 / FAD 4.5 is the compressor ideal for this spray gun you’re using? Cheers
It will work, may have some air fluctuations if painting multiple panel or a full car but should get the job done.
@@GarageNoise yeah i think I may just buy a bigger air compressor like a 50ltr😂 thanks for the reply
It seems like ther was a lot of overspray with this gun. Do you know of one that will produce less overspray? Thanks
It may of seemed like it but it truly produces much less overspray than any other gun on the market.
@@GarageNoise OK, Thanks
Hi I bought a 27 gallon fortress compressor will it be enough for a bumber or a hood I bought a 80$ harbor freight paint gun
Should be, I don't know what gun you bought tho. Some of those hf gun use alot of air.
@@GarageNoise I got the black widow from harbor forgot 11.8cfm @35 psi gun is 14 to 35 psi input have another gun central pneumatic 15 cfm @ 40 psi honestly ima return my 27 compresser and get a 60 gallon I should be good with a 60 galllon rite dewalt 3.7 hp 155 max psi 13.4scfm at 40psi and 11.5 scfm at 90 psi I don’t wanna risk the small 27 gal ima upgrade to a 60 gal
What needle size and can this gun spray solvent paint????
1.3 and yes it can
How do you manage to get 30psi at the gun while spraying, especially with the added bulb filter?
On mine I'm lucky to get 25psi regulated if I send the full 110psi of tank pressure (20gal/2HP), using 25ft of 3/8" line.
I do have a wall-mounted oil+moisture filter in the way, but still...
Make sure the air adjustment knob on the bottom of the gun is open allrhe way.
@@GarageNoise Thanks, it was already open. It ended up being the cheap regulator I had on it. I overnighted the same square blue digital type I saw on yours and that fixed it!
@@robkipa 👍
I’ve been looking at a compressor that’s is 50litres with 14.5cfm would this be acceptable? Many thanks
That would work great! Appreciate your comment and support!
@@GarageNoise thanks for the reply great videos they are helping a lot with setting up my home garage. 👍

Do you think the kiwami4 is the same or similar to the R500?
I cant make a decision which one is best for clear coat?
Kiwami is a different gun for sure. Kiwami 4 I feel is a better clear gun but I hesitate because you may like the r500 better and you my have concerns with air consumption. The r500 is less money.
@@GarageNoise I think th r500 is best for me, my compressor is 26 gallons, base on that limitation I might have to go for the R500. I really like the kiwami4 everyone says is good...
I have both guns, the kiwami lays down clear really well but that R500?? For the price, air consumption and how it lays down clear it can't be beat.
@@eddiejones8339 I may have to get both..
One for clear coat one for base color.
@Daniel Medrano
I use my astro HE for base coat. I have a brand new one sitting in the box waiting to replace it. That Kiwami 4 lasted a year just spraying clear. I bought 2 at the same time. The second one is still in the box. The R500 I've used twice and it laid down the clear very well and was 65.00 that Kiwami4 was 187.00. Could buy 3 R500's for the price of the Kiwami just saying.
What air compressor do you use and how many cfm??
My compressor is a ingersoll rand that produces 16 cfm at 90 psi
What kind of paint cup did you use?
This is it
amzn.to/3fHxdky
Me I just want a gun for small job, like motorcycle fender. Not the entire fender but rader deep scratch so you understand what i'm saying. it's once and a while little job. So i'm not looking for hundreds of dollar gun. What gun should I buy for my needs?n I have a 8 gal thank, 1.5HP, max pressure 135
You may want to cosider a good touch up gun astro makes a good one.
@@GarageNoise thanks. Astro gun will be
Nice video 📹 Chris hope you're OK and well aren't you going to used a wet bed on there Chris so it blend in with the car
Not on this one because for one it's black and it's not a problem blending black. It's also not hot . I mainly use a wet bed on extremely hot days or tough colors or metallics like silver or gold. Good question, appreciate the comment and support!
💪💪💪have you tried the clear 2:1 with this gun?
No, I'll have to test it.
Can you use this clear coat to paint an entire car? Why does is say for spot panels?
Yes, you could but they have an overall clear as well. The overall dries a bit slower for more working time.
Here's a link amzn.to/3RYRkMb
What about shooting primer?
It's great for primer. I use the 1.5 tip for high build and if your spraying something thicker you might step up to the 1.7
How many coats of clear should you put on
2 coats Is really all you need
