Can you use different guns with this spray station? I was looking at the harborfrieght HVLV gravity feed spray gun.

I can not say if it would work with any other gun. This gun works very well and parts are available at home improvement stores in every town. If you spray different paints and need to change needles.

The Graco gun is designed for that system and works well as is, but if you have to replace the gun,You might be able to "MacGyver" a Harbor Freight gun to the system. Check the CFM, pressure & spray nozzle of the replacement gun. Good luck

No you cannot. It is dedicated system. But depending on the system you choose,you should need no other.The higher volume spray systems will accept a smaller orifice fluid nozzle ,that will produce an finer spray, but will reduce production.

For details yes if your doing large flat areas or single color get an HVLP spray gun. But this gun does work really well.

honestly, I don't know if you can use any can other than a Resolve can. if the "options" don't tell you, it would be a gamble if the opening of one is the same as the other. Just FYI, I've used the "spray" Resolve and the brush without fitting it into the canister.

You can, but it is much better for spraying solvents. If you are looking for a reusable cheap spray gun,then the Preval line, http://store.preval.com/ is much better suited to the task.

I doubt it would run a HVLP gun. It would be O.K. for an Air-Brush, but not and full-on spray gun. The tank is too small to keep up with the demand of an HVLP gun. This compressor works great for small hobbyist type project. It's not good for constant demand usage. I'm a cabinet maker by trade and I know what it takes to run spray guns and nail guns. This is not made for heavy use.It works fine for what I use it for. I was tired of spending money on those compressed air cans like "Dust-Off", they use for blowing out computers and keyboards. I use mine to blow out small parts that I have cleaned with solvents and the like on pistols and rifles as well as my reloading bench.I hope this helps. I doubt it would run a HVLP gun.

That all depends on the spray gun your using. This compressor puts out 3.8 cfm at 40 psi, guns today can require 3 times that amount of cfm. HVLP guns require higher volumes of air. Older style siphon feed guns, especially a small touch up gun, may be able to be used depending on the tip and air cap configuration. A small airbrush you could use easily. This compressor builds air quickly at its stated rating, but the storage capacity is just not adequate for paint spraying. Hope that helps.

As long as the paint reservoir tube can suck paint. Youll have to turn the paint reservoir in a way that gravity wont affect the way paint is sucked up into the sprayer. So if u do this it should work.

I don't think it will work with any type of a spray gun other than an artists airbrush. It has a very low air volume so it's great for a small nail gun but not for a heavy duty nail gun because it can't keep up with the air that's required. It's a great small compressor and is much quieter than the pancake models.

Yes you can use other companies...I've used lees and didn't like it, hornady is the best in my opinion.

Most likely you can find parts from another spray gun which will interchange ok. These gun usually will be either 1.0, .8, or .5 mm. I have done this before but not with the ac-2. If you want a finer nozzle and needle it will probably be less expensive to purchase another economy gun equipped with the finer .8 or .5 You may try the small touch up gun from Harbor Freight or at your local supply store

This spray gun will not spray latex paint as sold. You would need to purchase lager needle and tip to do so. You will need to purchase a 1.7 or 2.0 tip and slightly thin the paint to spray it. With that said this is not the right spray gun to paint walls. You can also send me an email for more information.DaveFurniture.fixer@snet.net

Yes you can. I use the Gilmore All Purpose sprayer that can be purchased on Amazon. If this sprayer is used, a setting of "2" seems to work for the concentration mix for me.

Yes you can,the attatchments i got were really busted the laser light was leaking a weird substance,the pieces of the barrel are interchangeable with other color parts and i think the handle is also no parts to really recommend its a personal preference friendly gun

What type of paint are you thinking. As far as latex water base and oil paints, its no problem. It can shoot anything a regular airless can spray. It has up too 2,000 psi ....Berh paint is pertty thick and it does it with ease, just buy the proper spray tip to your liking. Also as a heads up, Graco sells only 4 tips for the gun but are very expensive. You can remove the plastic guard on the factory nozzle on the gun and cut some of the plastic around the tip. You should be able to pull it out and use different sizes from regular spray guns.

Sure you can swap the rigid barrel with a flex barrel. They have the standard grease gun threads. No leaking. Remember to read the loading instructions that come with the gun. Read them carefully, and follow their directions. It's important that all air is pumped out of the cartridge head before tightening the head. This is for all mini grease guns.

Hello Alan, I am afraid you cannot use Black & Decker BDPH400's (power unit) compressor with any other type of 3rd party spray guns. The reason being, the (power unit) compressor and the supplied gun are designed to work only with one another. If you've notice, the hose size on the 'HomeRight C800863' spray gun is comparatively smaller to the one of the Black and Decker gun. If you can find a reducer attachment for the Black and Decker power unit (compressor) to match the hose size of the 'HomeRight C800863' spray gun, then it might work. There's no guarantee though that it will. I haven't tried painting ceilings with this product yet; hence, I am unsure about your second question. I hope this helps!

yes, the high pressure and high volume capability is great. You will need yo go up on the gun flow tip. the one that comes with it is for smaller jobs. Check the paint you are buying and buy the largest tip available
