Looking for reviews for these two HVLP guns. Anyone out there using them?
The Craftsman gun is more, however Sears customer service is well worth it.
If the Husky is just a better gun, I'll go with that. My Harbor Freight job
is now leaking... of coarse. Thanks! Here are some product links.

Clean and fix it - it probably is just as good as the others - rember you are spraying glaze (fine sand on suspension). you do not need a "special" fine gun for glazes. Check out that is is CLEAN and that the gaskets/o-ring type are there and working. itahe it aparet and clean it completly. what can you lose if is is leaking now??? In most cases a bit of vasoline and tightening of teh adjuster sead fittings will do the trick. IF the gun is CLEAN in all pasages. and If you need gaskets, check our your brochure - or harbor freight. they should be easy to buy. Saves a lot of money And it will happen again if you don't to proper maintenance. sam in faly city
