Hvlp turbine

[wellcraftv20step]

Has anyone used an Hvlp turbine unit? If so what unit,how many stages,what have you sprayed with it. what materials have you sprayed? Automotive coatings, base coat ,clear coat, lacquers , latex paints ,stains. I'm looking for a unit and I'm extremely torn on 3 different units. Let me know thanks!

I just run a Sata HVLP gravity feed, I don't do enough to justify a true HVLP. I painted two 34ft parasail boats with it.

The Sata's I understand are the top of the heap for use with a large compressor. I Have an old titan three stage turbine that I
used for lacquers and the like on cabinets but it's very tired. I need to get a new unit most likely with a fourth stage , I was just hoping maybe somebody had some feedback on them, the only reason I'm looking for a four stage is a figure if I'm going to spend the money on a new system I might as well get one that has the atomization to spray automotive coatings like clear coats. I don't paint cars on a normal basis mind you. It's just that I picked up this little 2001 run around 4.0 Ford ranger for absolutely no money and it has 60,000 miles on it and runs like a top. But the outside was abused and I'd really like to repaint it. my children and my grandchildren have nicknamed it Hooptie! I've got a new Dodge ram that actually just sit in my driveway and has almost no mileage on it . So yes I admit I'm a little obsessed with Hooptie. I'm going to pull the trigger on one of these units before the week is out though, thanks for getting back David.
