Only gun you'll ever need... (almost)
I have a number of spray guns at all kinds of price points. I have nice guns for things like automotive paint. I have cheap guns for nasty catalyzed things that can ruin guns like high build primers. I have pressure pots for... well, not much because they are a nightmare to clean. Since purchasing this, I have not touched any of my other equipment at all (with one exception). We recently built a bunch of composite tooling that required LOTS of catalyzed high build polyester primer. These often have a very short work time, like 10 minutes or less, and I liked the idea of being able to toss the nozzle if the coating went off in the gun. I've probably sprayed 20 gallons of Duratec primer with this gun and the 2.0 nozzles. I've also sprayed some much finer coatings with the smaller nozzles including automotive base and clear. To my surprise, the finish quality was superior to any other gun I've used AND it is super easy to dial in for exactly what you want. Cleanup is a breeze no matter what you use. The supposedly "disposable" nozzles last nearly forever and require very little solvent or time to clean. Before purchasing, I really didn't like the idea of "consumable" waste from the single use liners. However, with the enormous amount of solvent and time you save I think they easily pay for themselves. The only thing I can complain about is that there is no nozzle bigger than 2.0mm. I spray a lot of gel coat as well and the 2.0 is marginal for that. So I do still have to use a traditional dump gun for bigger gel coat jobs. I have actually drilled out an older nozzle to about 2.4 and it works ok, but obviously the spray quality suffers a bit. Since this is targeted at the automotive crowd, 2.0 is huge. But I'd be willing to be there are a lot of people out there wanting to use this for gel coat. Everyone hates messy dump guns and this could totally replace them if they released bigger nozzles. Still, this is an outstanding do-nearly-everything gun and I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

Easy of use and cleanup
I had been buying cheap guns and decided to splurge on a new gun and this one was particularly interesting because I didn't have to take the gun apart to clean it. Painting quality is very good, nice pattern and good control. It is a breeze to swap tip sizes and switch colors within seconds. Comes with 3 different tip sizes and some starter cups along with a regulator. I recommend to also buy a box of disposable cups along with the gun. I went for the 50 pack to get started. If you're ready to step up, you can't go wrong The tips are not single use you can clean them if you want to reuse/ fairly easy.

Great spray gun
This is a great gun for DIY garage painters. Easy clean up, replacement nozzles are pricey. I would replace mine if broken.

Much improved to PPS1.0! Very happy!
I have been using the first iteration of this system for a few years. A few weeks ago the gun broke. The design on the 2.0 system is great for connecting the cups and paint nozzle. Cleaning is a breeze and adjusting the pattern is super easy. The old system was much more difficult to connect the gun to the replacement heads, this design is so much better. I did my first base/clear job last week and it looks professionally done. I am actually looking forward to painting with this system, I highly recommend this.

Buena pistola
Very light. Basically does'nt need any cleaning just the needle. The only con is that the disposible tips seem pretty pricy. But the way it spray is great. I used it for primer and I couldn'nt mess up. Keep it away from your friends.

First time spraying and this gun, was awsome. Easy tonuse, setup was easy agter watching some youtube videos, clean up is really easy for the tips. My only issues was the orange peel on a single stage was a bit more the I'd have liked to see. Deffinitly watch some videos fro. Eastwood and PaintSociety there's a lot of good information out there to help. I didn't really do any testing before hand so I'm not blaming the gun. The paint Clerk told me to use a 1.8 and 3m said a 1.6 so I'm thinking it was a bit big and although i was using a larger compressor on a single 25ft hose my air spraying pressure was lower then I'd like to see. Deffinitly think i need to play around with the system more but still really happy with the purchase. I found I was using at least 2to3 cups per panel just between all the coats so order lots of cups!

Es perfecta

Compré dos veces está pistola y en las dos ocasiones venía con fuga de aire detrás del gatillo y las perillas para regular el abanico y material tenían lubricante, señal de que las dos pistolas estaban ya usadas y las perillas rechinaban. No compren estás pistolas usadas, son una estafa y te la venden a precio de un producto nuevo.
