I've been using the cheap Harbor Freight spray gun just to spray epoxy primer inside internal cavities that won't be seen, but now I need to get a better gun for the rest of the project. I'm leaning toward the Devilbiss StartingLine kit because it comes with a variety of tips but reviews are all over the matt. I'm pretty impressed with the results @aggiezig got with it. Eastwood's Concours 2 gun also caught my eye. Wondering what others might recommend. I want to keep the cost under $200ish. I'll be spraying PPG Deltron line paints (DCC single stage and DBC basecoat with DC clear) in silver metallic if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

I painted my car last year with the Devilbiss starting line kit. First time painter but I did lots of research and was able to get very satisfying results. I ended up switching to the 3M disposable cup system and was glad - cleanup was quicker and it was nice to premix an extra cup and have it waiting if I needed it.
