I bought this recently when I was in Wa. state on the way home. I haven't done much painting of any kind except with spray bombs. I paid about $13.00 for it, and the thing works just great.
I just finished a touch-up job on my wife's car, basecoat-clearcoat. It looks very nice. The body shop estimates were about $1600. That seemed too steep, so I did it.

I started a project build there " File and Fit." I paln to continue that when I go back home in Dec. 2011. I first joined the board when Gary W had it in the year 2005. That was the time I really gained an interest in building chops. I have a long way to go, compared to some here.

Re: Cheap touch-up gun
those jam guns work great usually a smaller tip 1.0 compared to 1.4 on a regular gun seem to make the paint less orange peal like never tried the hf guns though looks like a nice job there happy wife happy life

Re: Cheap touch-up gun
It's a .8 tip, so yeah the paint doesn't blast all over. I would think that painting a frame would work well with one of these. Thanks for the approval.
