TCP Global Brand Professional New 2.5mm HVLP Spray Gun- Great for High Build Auto Paint Primer - Metal Flake application and any heavy bodied paint or Primer Material -with Air Regulator

I tried to use this the Regulator knob flew off and fell apart, the gun works but the Regulator is Junk. Can you send me a new Regulatir? Must have just been a bad one from the Factory?can you send me a regulator?

Good gun

1st, look at the price. Tip is too large to do a GREAT job, but if you have a beater that you want to patch up yourself, this is the ticket. Even though the tip is too small for many folks preference for a primer gun, i like it well for this. I found it hard to drop the right amount of base without getting it too thick, but, practice would overcome a lot of that.The clear was just to orange peeled, and i resprayed, but still couldnt match FACTORY peel. However, i have seen cars from factory with as much orange peel, so if you were to do a WHOLE car or project, and budget is a concern, i believe this would work well, but i see it as a throw-away because of parts available, and there are no other size tips for it that i could see. IF more tips ARE available, i would give it one more star. I have a warwick and it more closely matches my cars factory peel, and it has more tip size available making it more versatile, but it cost 9 times as much too.

I got this gun to spray latex paint on cabinets and it worked great. I also own a Wagner 9146 airless sprayer which works great for BIG jobs, but when you are working on something smaller like cabinets you have tons of wasted product. This gun is not meant for painting large spaces such as a room or a whole house, but it does a great job on smaller things like doors, cabinets, molding, and furniture. It laid down a nice smooth finish on my cabinets and it was very easy to use and clean. It has a great feel and is easy to adjust. I also own a Graco-Sharpe 289222 Mini-HVLP FX1000 and a Graco-Sharpe 288878 HVLP FX3000 1.4 mm HVLP Gravity Feed Spray Guns both purchased from Amazon. These guns are awesome for spraying fine finishes like poly urethane, lacquer, shellac, and metal finishes, but not latex. I do a lot for wood and metal finishing as my hobbies and I am a happy to add this guy to my finishing arsenal.

I placed a small O ring under the cup to keep it from leaking. There should be some seal or O ring come with the purchase

I sprayed lacquer and vinyl sealer on chairs with this gun. No complaints on it. The adjustable air regulator was suspect, it didn’t seem to stay at a pressure and adjusting it didn’t seem to work very well. Otherwise the gun comes apart easy, the lid on the cup fits ok but can be troublesome. It sprayed ok but this was my first time spraying that type of fluid so maybe I did it wrong! Results were good. Even with the 1.8 tip I still thinned to get a better spray, I also added a water separator that worked well.

I got one of the guns they basically glued together. It looks nice and seems to be well built for shooting primer but theres something wrong with putting a brand new paint gun in a vise to get enough torque on the head to remove it for initial cleaning! Im talking easily 75ftlbs to remove

I bought my TCP Global Professional Gravity Feed HVLP Spray Gun with a 2.0mm Fluid Tip, 1 Liter Aluminum Cup and Air Regulator because I was tired of having to buy a gun for each size nozzle. You can change nozzle sizes in airless paint sprayers why not HVLP guns. TCI Global sells other size nozzle kits that will fit this gun. I bought a TCP Global 2.5 Needle,Nozzle, Air Cap Set for The G6600 Series Spray Gun and it works great in this gun. I just wish the would sell the guns with multiple size nozzles.

I have guns ranging from cheap HF guns used for dyes to astros used for cabinet pre cat lacquer to a Sata rp for automotive paint. Unfortunately I dont have anything with a large enough tip to shoot latex primers. Im redoing all the trim in my house and needed something to shoot primer on the base and crown before installation. Using a 1.9 tip on an astro gun wasnt working without massive thinning. For my application, it gets 5 stars. All i need is a decent volume of paint and a good spray pattern and i need it without thinning the product. For me, it worked perfect. I dont doubt this guns ability to lay latex really smooth, but Im only shooting a couple coats of primer so I never got there. Id say its quality feels on par to my $120 astro guns. Not a sata, but definitely good enough for almost anything and much better than the HF guns. Im not a huge fan of the lid, but thats minor. For 40 bucks it would be worth a shot on your project.

This is my 3rd Aeropro (TCP GLOBAL) gun that I bought and use. I have a 1.3mm, 2.5mm, and now this 1.4mm. All work very well. This one, the 1.4mm sprays down the base very well. In order to minimize any orange peel you just need to be a little further away from the panel and move fairly quickly across it as well. Im spraying at 2 bar. Product Im spraying is Valspar auto paint. I can honestly say that these guns work very well for the price you pay. Good results come from good technique. The guns spray just fine. If you are having issues, practice more with finding the right settings for what YOU are spraying with. All materials sprayed need to have their own settings. There is no Universal one setting works for everything. Different thickness, different consistency requires you to find the best air flow /fluid flow settings.
