It was OK. It needed two coats to get complete coverage. It poped after the second coat. Can you believe this, I painted this car with a $50 Harborfreight gun with a 1.5 tip. I had my good one on reserve if it failed, but it worked perfectly.

I've sprayed with the harbor freight gun. Only issue with the cheaper guns is that they don't atomize the clear well and you get the orange peal.
You should have told me that you were gonna spray with that gun. I have one you could have had.

I have a good Binks gun. I gave this one a go on the engine compartment and it went well, so I just decided to go with it. I do need to borrow something though. I'll give you a call on Monday.
