2203G Semi-PRO 2-Gravity HVLP Spray System, Blue

I've just done one project so far, an oak desk that I stripped down to bare wood. I wanted to use water based products only, which was also a tip offered by several reviewers, especially if you've a novice like me. The main reason I wanted to try a sprayer was doing the large flat top surface with a relatively fast drying product. You simply can't move fast enough sometimes to cover a lot of square feet with a brush or rag, and not end up with gooey overlaps or brush marks etc. Spraying takes that fear away, since its a very quick application. My project wasn't particularly easy, as I used a dark brown Minwax stain (applied manually since I wanted to rub it with a rag soon after applying) and then sprayed 3 coats clear top coat from General Finishes; it was not easy to see exactly what was going on due to the lack of contrast. I'm sure with practice I'll know how to arrange better lighting and whatnot. At times I was too trigger heavy on the desk legs and got runs, which I had to quickly rub off. The large horizontal surface was more forgiving and any heavy spots levelled off just fine. Clean-up was a breeze as many have mentioned. I expect I'll eventually get a short light 'whip' to make handling the gun easier. All in all, this appears to be a great product and having something made in Canada (my country) is welcome treat.

Muy buena opción para no tener que usar un compresor. La turbina siempre está encendida lo que lo hace un poco ruidoso, pero no te afectan las variaciones normales de un compresor. La pistola tiene buena calidad, sólo le hace falta un soporte para la pistola, lo venden por separado.

I had no prior experience with HVLP spraying. There’s quite a bit of a learning curve with regards to handling, general technique and such, but as for the product itself it was very straightforward to use and gave me no issues. The provided documentation and charts on which tips to use for which application were helpful. Very simple but quality rugged setup. Once I had a process figured out, clean up was VERY easy. I went with HVLP in part because I did not want to deal with flushing out hoses, and that aspect worked out great. I was able to switch between different materials with no problems. I used it for both painting and applying a polyurethane finish. Paint was an oil-based primer and water-based urethane enamel. I thinned in both cases and used a 1.8 tip (which you need to buy separately) and it applied the paint very well despite concerns of it only being a dual stage turbine. My only criticism, if you want to call it that, is this doesn’t do everything. I have plans to paint interior and exterior walls and that kind of job, while technically possible, would be a bit overkill for this unit due to how much paint it can hold. This product seems like a decent value for the hobbyist (or “semi pro” ;) who wants to achieve great results with no fuss. A bit pricey, but the quality is high, and the results good.

Muy fácil de manejar y excelente calidad en los materiales, con resultados increíbles al momento de pintar

This system is top notch! Fuji Systems are very high quality and built very well. It cleans very easily, and is easy to setup, even for beginners. You can tell just by handling them they are quality components. I had one of these systems years ago and wanted to purchase a higher model, but this unit provides such great results I cannot imagine what the higher end models produce. I would not purchase any other brand of HVLP spray system other than Fuji, they are the best!!
