Are you talking about this one:http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=91772

I bought one this weekend with their e-coupon for $35. I'm a complete
spraying noob so take it for what it's worth but I was pleasantly surprised.
I fully expected to end up taking it back. I needed to spray some shellac


Yes that is exactly the one I was talking about. I figured for that
price even if I used it a couple of times, its better than a brush.



and it did an excellent job once I figured out which spray pattern to use
and dialed back the material flow. Quality of the sprayer is not great but
it's better than I expected. You can't upgrade the gun because of the way it
fits on the paint canister so it's basically a throw away item but for $35,
if it gets me through a dozen projects I'll be happy.
You won't find it at your local custom auto body shop but hey, it's $35.

I am going to need a HVLP sprayer, but its something I am not going to
using lots. I seen a cheap one on Harbor freight for about $40 (self
contained), but I noticed there are some that you hook up to a
compresser. What would be better?
