Hi guys, I'm building some interior shutters for a nursery, and want to try my hand at a spray finish (latex paint). I've never sprayed a finish before.
I bought a $99 Husky HVLP gun set to go along with my 2 gallon, 1.7 CFM Kobalt compressor that I normally just use for nailing trim. But I just learned that I need a higher CFM compressor for the job. So I'm considering my options. I'm happy to save money here, but don't want to go so cheap that I ruin my pieces. Looking for a good balance of quality and price.
Should I get a compressor with a big tank? Should I get a dedicated HVLP machine? I don't really have room in my shop for a large compressor, so I'm leaning HVLP machine...but again, I'm a novice here.
Thanks! I've searched through past threads, but the amount of advice in there is overwhelming, and I'm hoping for a simple answer.
