Default sata 3000

I have heard that the sata 3000 is a little on the heavy side, but holds up real well. I think I will buy one and try it out. Thanks for the replies guys. I hope one day I could actually post some pics of progress.

Call me the oddball here but I bought a GEO. No complaints other than its got alot of small precision orifices to keep clean to keep it "on its game" but sprays like no other.

Sata's are much easier to clean when your done though. Also, my GEO isnt the quickest thing to get parts for. Something to consider.

I just learned the hard way not to try to cut corners on a gun. I could not get the clear to lay down nice with my Devilbiss gun no matter what I did. Bought an Iwata LPH400-LV and the difference was incredible. Laid down nice, no runs and minimal orange peel. Keep in mind that this was my first time painting a car and it's likely a pro could have made that Devilbiss gun work but I was unable to. I wished I had bought the Iwata to start with. It's still a good gun to shoot primers.
