I've never painted a car before. I was planning on purchasing http://www.harborfreight.com/high-volume-l...-gun-66222.html. The manual states it uses 12 CFM's at 45 PSI. I have a Craftsman 20 gallon compressor. I haven't checked the max CFM yet but I have a feeling it is around 7CFM's. Will this gun work with my compressor for priming and painting my 914?

Make sure you de-burr and clean the tip. Mine wouldn't work right, found sharp edges in the air port of the tip and some brass blocking the air port hole. After that it sprayed fine. Here's a coupon if you need it.
