Thanks Phrozin (and McCreed) for the cheap spray gun info.
What are your thoughts on a suitable compressor?

The little voices in my head keep telling me "build more guitars"
A while ago I was looking to downsize mine, and was considering something like THIS.Originally Posted by Trevor Davies
I haven't done a lot of research into the Lincoln brand, but the specs are what I'm looking for in a replacement.
My current unit is 2.5HP Belt Drive, 55L, 185L/min. Way more than I need...

I had a Lincoln LB3050 3HP 50L for a bit its a bloody good compressor it is actually an underrated pump said its fad was 260 but is more like 320-350, I sold it when I had the top of my hand take off as wasn't sure I could work a spray gun anymore, I have a triple cyl 17cfm 3.5hp 60lt FAD is 450, mainly because I use Iwata guns which have huge airflow and suck the guts out of the compressor

if you are not bothered too much about noise
this has really good spec's for the money

the ones i wouldn't buy again is a super cheap auto belt drive because they reduced the receiver size to only 40lt they did that to raise it FAD which was pretty low, the problem is it's always on the pump and doesn't keep up, and the price their asking is too high for what you get. if you want 1 to just spray guitars with the gun in the link this will work just fine as has a decent FAD and 50lt receiver at a great price, I actually buy a lot of gear from Sydney tool

if anyone wants to upgrade to a compressor and gun i buy all my painting supplies from a crash repair supplier as if you buy in bulk it's way cheaper
here are some links to the guys I use
https://www.autorepairsdirect.com.au/
and here
https://www.autolac.com.au/
I buy my candy paints from here I buy in bulk there in the UK but they have pretty decent delivery time and better quality products I buy in powder form theres a few guys on ebay but their pearls and candy concentrate is pretty average al have a lot of crap in there powders
