looking to pick up a lower end but good quality hvlp spray gun. currently looking at the eastwood concours hvlp with 3 tips (1.2,1.4,1.8) for around 250. are there better guns out there for that price or even less? i'm ok with the 200-250 price range. i like the low cfm requirement on this eastwood.

I have to ask if your restricted by compressor size? At home I use the budget Asturo R500, it is a LVLP type gun and is great for spraying in your home garage. It transfers paint slower (means you need to spray slower) than a traditional HVLP type gun but trust me you don't want to run a 13CFM gun without a pro booth and larger compressor. I run the R500 off a Dewalt D55146 for spot repair and it never skips a beat. I am sure that Eastwood would run equally well off a smaller compressor as well.

yes - limited to a lower volume compressor (60-80 gal, can't remember but limited cfm). i have another high volume compressor but it needs to be repaired and will not be available for quite some time. that is why the eastwood looks good. just wanted to see if there are any better low cfm guns for the same price.
