Hints & Tips * Preparation is essential - remember to mask around the areas you are not spraying. * Take a minute to ensure paint viscosity is correct- thin paint as necessary using water or relevant thinners. * If you've never sprayed before, 1-2 minutes practice on cardboard to develop your technique will ensure you get a great result. * Allow time for drying between coats. * Fine mists will generally dry faster than heavier coats. This will allow you to build up coats faster and there is less likelihood of runs. * Avoid spraying when windy.

Earlex 5500: good for price, but not as pictured

The Earlex 5500 performs well for its price. Once I purchased a 1.0 mm needle (the 2.0 and 1.5 mm needles are too large for my work) the results were great, and I have already finished two guitars with great results. Now for the down side: photos of the 5500 show a compact unit with handle. But, the handle seen on the photos is longer than the one on the unit I received. Why is that a problem? When the gun is stowed, it just barely fits beneath the handle. In fact, I have to finagle it in there. There is not enough room between the top of the gun and the bottom of the handle to fit my hand, making it hard to carry. And every time I take the gun out, it scrapes against the handle which comes apart. This may seem like a small thing, but the unit depicted and the unit I received are not the same, and the difference in the two creates problems. Overall though, I like the Earlex 5500. I just wish it came is pictured!

HVLP sprayer

After using another brand of HVLP sprayer of the past 25 years, I was leery to go to another brand. After using the new sprayer, I am very pleased with its performance and ease of use. The spray pattern adjustment is quick and easy and accurate. It is easy to disassemble and clean. The teflon coated quart container is a good feature. I have used the 2.0 tip to spray latex paints as well as poly finishes and it works well just adjusting the needle pressure. The only thing that I think should have been included with enclosed tools is a wrench to loosen the nut between the pick-up tube and the spray handle. I would purchase another Earlex product in the future.
