About two years ago, I asked for opinions on the Harbor Freight HVLP
turbine / gun kit. This is the$69 unit that is similar to the Rockler
and certain Campbell Hausfield examples.

As I was spraying a bed with Seal Coat this afternoon, I realized
three things:

1.) I'm STILL using this thing!
2.) I heard about it here.
3.) I usually HATE the stuff I buy from HF, so I typically avoid their
products, but this " 'wreckomended product" has been a real winner for
me.

So, while someday I'm going to get a "real" high-end unit, as I'm sold
on turbine units, this thing is still plugging along!

I've sprayed many, many projects with it, and it's all thanks to the
'wreck!


Good stuff Barry. It's good to hear when things work out well - especially
stuff that comes from places like HF. It helps to build up the arsenal of
knowledge of what's acceptable there and what's junk. I know the guns I
looked at for oh-what's-his-name a while back (freakin' aging memory...)
contained a selection of some pretty decent stuff. I don't recall if I
commented on the gun you bought, but I know some of the other stuff was well
worth buying. As well, I came across some pure junk - real junk on the same
shelf.

Anyway - thanks for the post.
