Hi,
I think I've decided that I might need to start looking at taking the next step and getting into spraying for my finish work. I've discovered larger projects, and projects with lots of interconnecting pieces, are a real pain in the arz to finish.
I don't have an endless supply of money, and I "get" the concept of saving up and getting the better solution first rather than purchasing twice.... but, I think I would like to try something "entry level" and then go from there.
Ultimately I'd like to get a compressor that would handle the job, that way I've got a good compressor for other tasks, but now we are getting into the cost prohibitive arena.
I've been looking at a sprayer "system" that Rockler has for $122, and Harbor Freight has one for $89... the pictures on both web sites look like the exact same unit.... anyone know if they are?
Anyone here have any experience with either of these? The customer reviews from Rockler seem to be primarily positive.
The description on Rocklers site...
"This affordable HVLP (high volume, low pressure) spray system allows you to spray lacquer, stains, water-based finishes and oil-based paints with very minimal overspray"
What about shellac and varnish???
Are there other sub $200 (would prefer to keep it sub $150) solutions out there I should consider?
Thanks guys (and gals)
edit: it looks like Earlex has a few units in my price range as well. curious on input regarding those systems as well.... thanks
