Brands....meh not so much. They all spray a little different I find its better to fit the gun to your style then the other way around. I've been a devilbiss fan for a while. The anesta Iwata gun's i've been using lately are nice....I do like SATA alot, but hate having to get parts for them, and my style doesn't fit they're pattern as you generally have to be much closer to the panel then I'm comfortable with to get proper transfer.
Ok, gotcha. I knew about HVLP, and you explained what I thought you might be hinting at when you referred to larger lines and fittings plus a compressor that can flow a LOT of air. I've got a couple of DeVilbiss guns for my project. My compressor may not be ideal, but it's better than trying to use a 15 gallon Craftsman.
