I'm a retired commercial painter of 37 years. I started out before HVLP was a thing and was a Pioneer user of the Binke HVLP MACH II. Lots of hobby stuff including airplanes, race boats and a few Classic car restorations. The jump from conventional to HVLP was monumental but today's HVLP is just a whole different level. You do an excellent job on your presentation as well as the craftmanship you display. You are an excellent instructor. Great job, I'm in.
I appreciate it man! I really try to explain everything as good as I can and as understandable as possible for diy guys. I know that’s a majority of my audience so I try to help as much as I can!
we live in a time where a cheap product doesn’t always mean crappy quality and i love that
I've used this gun on a total of about 30 cars full paint jobs nd a bunch of repaired parts fenders, hoods etc...and I haven't had a problem yet. You do definitely need a compressor that will give this continuous air. And it definitely helps to have a good spray shop. The only thing I would say is that I can spray faster with my other guns (complete jobs faster) but this thing definitely does a great job. If an apprentice it's great just practice with it nd get it dialed in nd your good. Not sure how long it will last but so far so good especially if you clean it like you would your more expensive guns nd not throw It around..
Would you recommend it for base coat or clear coat?
You sure did a great job on this, makes me want to get my car painted.💯
You just took me to school. I learned more in this one video with more information than 4 years of all the videos I have watched. Thanks for this. You should teach class'.
I appreciate that man. Find me on socials too bro. Anything I can do to help leave me a comment 🍻
@@olie_olie_paintzhey what is that regulator thing u got connected to the spray gun called
People don’t realize the level of skill needed to paint car. Nice work!
😂😂
Not really hard in general. It ain't rocket science with the correct tools. But I'm not really disagreeing. It take lots of skill to get that low orange peel finish consistently
@@tykendrick800 with your low orange peel remark I take it you are an expert car painter and all of your paint jobs are practically perfect in every way.
@@Jkwald57far from an expert😂
At the end of the day my cars that I've painted look as good as any car off the lot. If you saw one of my cars in traffic, you wouldn't judge it or think twice about it. It's just a painted car. Now can I provide a car show paint job with my skills? Hellz no. And Im fine with that. I don't care about being the best or perfect at anything.
I take it your a pro? In any field, professionals act bitter towards people like me. I learn to do it myself and pay no one.
I'm my own painter, welder, mechanic, electrician, Gardner, security, cook, auto detailer, carpenter, on and on and on.
I get the job done to my liking. That's all that matters. Like I said, painting a car isn't rocket science. Don't understand why yall take it as disrespect.
Hi Joel, this is the third review of this gun I've seen today (Trigger man and Garage Noise) and they both say the same as you that it's a great gun for the price, I can see from your video that it lays the base and clear really nice with a good OEM finish on the clearcoat, I'm not sure if they will be available here in the UK but I have bought spray guns from the USA before so that is an option👌
Thanks for the detailed review Joel🙏👍John UK
Great job, enjoyed this video!
Makes it look easy! Beautiful work- thanks for posting!
Very good stuff! Results look promising, thanks for the in-depth review!
Just picked one of these up, gonna DIY a paint job on a Lincoln Town Car. Wish me luck! 🤞🏻
well how'd it go?
I’ve seen others on RUclips but looking hat you did … beautiful I just purchased one I love tried 2 times so far love
Here I go again.... Off to Harbor Freight to buy this gun...
So glad that this one won't break the bank...
Harbor Freight has this spray gun on sale for $99. Today, only (Oct 01, 2024). It'll be fun to try it out. Thanks for the video/review.
i’ve been spraying for over 30 years i can do this with any gun, it’s all in the mixing of paint and the correct reducer
Better to start with a sharp knife vs a butter knife. This thing is great for its price.
Wow! Very nice! Paint Booth is Amazing! I hope it goes on sale for the 139.00! Love the paint job!😁👍
Just watched the video and thought it was really well done and you paint job looks awesome 🎉
Awesome review olie! Definitely gotta check this gun out!
Like you said, the gun is definitely nice and lays down a smooth coat, but for the guys at home in not so good of a booth (exhaust mainly) and mediocre CFM, you might want to spring for something a little milder. The overspray from it seems a bit much, which is no problem for a pro booth. That's a major problem at home, though. The LPH, a LVLP, or some similarly priced lower overspray gun might be better. No knocks on the BW, it's a helluva gun, just thought it would be a little more home user-friendly considering their marketing.
Hell yeah bro I have never completely seen full video on RUclips and I enjoy this video from , start to finish awesome job brotha💪 definitely subscribing and showing my friends about your work🤙 stay blessed and keep up the awesome videos💯
I have absolutely no need for a spray gun. Yet after watching this video, I just went out and bought it anyway.
I have the first black widow it works pretty good. Now I’m gonna go buy one of these new ones. The job came out beautiful keep up the great work. RESPECT!!!
Great review Joel, Thanks for posting the vid demo. 👍
dropped tack cloth on the floor picked it up and used it huh, but it still turned out good. A few nibs no wonder
Good eye
@@dannymann8649 yes 68 I still paint
Thank you Olie!
Nice job , looks amazing 👍👍
Thanks for taking your time and putting in the effort to review this for us peasants.
Nice job. Hopefully painting my truck in the summer. This will be perfect on a budget for me.
Glad I saw this will be getting one tomorrow! My Finex is just running like CRAP and cant get a good fan from it now Plus it started leaking !
I been using this BW for a few weeks. For the money its really good. Has a decent fan. Not the fastest gun but fast enough. It doesnt compare to top tier guns. It is comparable to guns like the LPH/W400 and Tekna. The built quality is good. I dont see much going wrong with it if you take care of it
Great job bud! Enjoyed this video and subscribed! Keep it up!
Thanks for the sub!
New sub here.. excellent video i just bought a black widow today hope to dial it in good n put it to use
Very well done my friend
Good review 👍 keep up the good work
Nice lay down. Thank you.
Wow that came out really nice...
Amazing how much work goes into to the prep work to turn around to take a 1 min or two to lay out paint maybe longer it’s like cooking turkey dinner takes so long for the prep and the foods gone in 15 mins .
Excellent job !
Thank you for sharing your knowledge bro 👍👍 always successful
Always like your videos Ollie
Amazing review and as others have stated it is a great beginner gun. I just wish I knew your secret to the HF coupons =)
Oh man spraying that candy is gonna mess with me. All that milky color until it flashes is crazy.
Lets GO! They are pretty good guns! Great out come as well!
Can you take apart the black widow and buy upgraded parts for it like a better nozzle a better tip better rings and would the gun perform better if you had those better parts inside it
I’m not even a painter put always dreamed about painting my Dodge Ram why just because I love my truck it’s been good or I been good too it.👍🇺🇸
Great video!!
Did you ever make the video as mentioned for the best diy garage set up? I was researching this gun how i came across your channel. I have a 30 gallon dewalt advertised 7.7 @ 40 compressor. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Ive been thinking about purchasing the lph 400, but that still use around 10 cfm @
Very amazing nice video good job !
Is the other Black Widow gun good for solid paintcause? I know you talked about the 1 that's 1.3. What's the other one called and is it? Good for solid paint like Enamels
The original worked great for clear so i know thats a beast
Nice content!
HTE or Hvlp your choice
I’m not a painter but I want to paint my motorcycle that I built so I’m not going to buy a $600 dollar but I think I will pick on of those black harbor freight guns up , thanks for the video
Hey does the Static gun really work that well and where could I purchase one at? Also really informative video. Thank you
What's the best to use to clean solvent based paints.
What type of cup and adapter do you use for this gun?
Enjoyed your video. I was curious which paint cup system you’ve used in this video. I’m trying to find an economic paint cup system for the PPS 2.0. Any recommendation would be appreciated
Have you ever used the devilviss GTI pro lite knock off on ebay that sells for around $100. If yes what are your thoughts?
Looks good. Is there anything in that top candy to control though? Jw. Alot of reds in Envirobase I spray don't have any sparkle lol. Alot of reds have candy in the clear now
Got here from the Harbor freight website. What is the price range that you charge for a paint job like this?
Did you use the same tip size for all materials?
How does it compare to the old hte black widow ?
beautiful work. I am in awe.
So both guns are the same just with two different needles?
What is the paint code and color name of the paint what Chrysler was it used on ?
Killer Video Olie Nice run down of the Gun also…
awesome job.👍👍👍👍👍
Tks they was good 😊
Please do an vid on the Sagola 4600 1.2 spray gun,spraying clearcoat.
Guess it would be all right for painting a couple of cars. But how many times can you take it apart to clean it . Before it goes to sh--
👍 nice job
Where did you get this static free spray gun cuz it sounds like it's brand air at the same time
What size is the silver cup adapter?
what camera do you record with? Looks super sharp
GoPro hero 12 black for anything pov.
Another very good painter.
What static gun was that?
What adaptor is that?
Is it a waterborne trait for the pearl coat to look blue when wet? I've never sprayed water. But never noticed it in solvent
Yes it is. Also when you spray straight back colors it lays down greenish....water paint is WAY different
Great. Video ❤
hey olie! im wondering if you could give me some information and knowledge around 4:14. i see you are using a tac rag and this lazer thing before you spray. im wondering what that is and what brand tac rags those are? my body guy does not like to use tac rags because he said some brands leave a coating and mess with the future layers.
I use waffle weave crystal tack and the sikkens brand tac rags. Biggest thing is do not pretty down on the panels with them. And the lazer is just the light from my anti static gun. Basically removes static charge from panels to help keep dust that’s floating around being attracted to the parts. 🍻
@@olie_olie_paintz thanks for that info! cant go wrong with that anti static gun!
Hi Joel，Maybe could you test a spray gun from new brand PORPHIS? I saw it on Ins but I would like to know more about the performance. Thanks!
Very Nice
Hi mate can you send me the link for spray gun i am from Australia
What color and paint brand is that?
He says at the beginning of the video
hello and thank you for the videos I watch you all the time could you help me out with that adapter number sata RPS cup I just bought that gun I seen the results you have got on it
Hi new to your u tube channel, nice Demonstration have u spayed any filler primer with it yet.
It’s not really suited for that. The black widow 1.7 is going to be the best for primer and I’ve used that setup and do use it every single day. Works fantastic!
What is a controlled coat?
A control coat or a drop coat is sprayed further away. Use it when shooting metallics to even out the appearance across the entire panel. It comes in a little drier, and gives the Metallics less time to flow out. The result is the Metallics look consistent.
What air regulator are you using
Walcom digital!
Skills make the gun look good under a professional
Do they make the Pps adapter for these by chance ?
Yessir. They come with the pps 1.0 style adapter in the box! I’d have to look up the 2.0 # but it’s the same as the last one!
Thanks🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏿👑👍🏿💯
Great reviews, may i ask what kind of static gun u are using? Thanks!
The light in the early bit of the video says Ionstar, so you may search that.
I use the ionstar. Available from pro spot welding. No batteries to charge and works fantastic!
👌
Wow,nice
Your form... So fluid, graceful, impeccable if I dare say so... I use an airless for high end cabinets/trim/etc ... I have dreams that I move like that, only to realize I'm as graceful as a 5 years rotting zombie on a brisk winters night😮💨 we all gotta have goals right? 😅
What did you shoot this video with yo ?
GoPro 12!
@@olie_olie_paintz looks good , great video as always
I should have bought one when they were on sale for $140🤦
Spraying sealer isnt hard ? Dont know sometimes you can soray it rough and thats pretty much screws yo entire paintjob. Bit then again i use cheap uk brands. But still and sealer is hard to sand if you do screw it up
I don't see the point at the price you can just get a name brand like Devellblis
Is your control coat sprayed with a half trigger pull? I’m spraying debeer 900 which is the same as the 9k and learning the process. I’ve been having better luck spraying at a lower psi for coverage/control
Yep. You can either half trigger or wind the fluid needle in. I drop from 24 to around 16-18 psi on my control coats.
Get it bro 👍👍🤓🫡
