This is the all new for 2024 harbor freight black widow rear fan control! I hope you guys enjoy my review and thoughts on this one! Links to tools and products seen on the channel can be found down below! linktr.ee/olie...
I'm a retired commercial painter of 37 years. I started out before HVLP was a thing and was a Pioneer user of the Binke HVLP MACH II. Lots of hobby stuff including airplanes, race boats and a few Classic car restorations. The jump from conventional to HVLP was monumental but today's HVLP is just a whole different level. You do an excellent job on your presentation as well as the craftmanship you display. You are an excellent instructor. Great job, I'm in.
I appreciate it man! I really try to explain everything as good as I can and as understandable as possible for diy guys. I know that’s a majority of my audience so I try to help as much as I can!
Not really hard in general. It ain't rocket science with the correct tools. But I'm not really disagreeing. It take lots of skill to get that low orange peel finish consistently
@@tykendrick800 with your low orange peel remark I take it you are an expert car painter and all of your paint jobs are practically perfect in every way.
@@Jkwald57far from an expert😂 At the end of the day my cars that I've painted look as good as any car off the lot. If you saw one of my cars in traffic, you wouldn't judge it or think twice about it. It's just a painted car. Now can I provide a car show paint job with my skills? Hellz no. And Im fine with that. I don't care about being the best or perfect at anything. I take it your a pro? In any field, professionals act bitter towards people like me. I learn to do it myself and pay no one. I'm my own painter, welder, mechanic, electrician, Gardner, security, cook, auto detailer, carpenter, on and on and on. I get the job done to my liking. That's all that matters. Like I said, painting a car isn't rocket science. Don't understand why yall take it as disrespect.
Hi Joel, this is the third review of this gun I've seen today (Trigger man and Garage Noise) and they both say the same as you that it's a great gun for the price, I can see from your video that it lays the base and clear really nice with a good OEM finish on the clearcoat, I'm not sure if they will be available here in the UK but I have bought spray guns from the USA before so that is an option👌 Thanks for the detailed review Joel🙏👍John UK
Bullshit. P P G. Devilbliss JG model. If something works well, why fuk with it. Believe me, that gun is not going to last 20 years and put out a few thousand paint jobs, now is it. No. I consider those as throw away guns. Use them to spray some primers and paint when your painting the old Farmall or manure spreader 😮😮
I honestly cant see any difference in a meaty oaker gun like this than a 7/8/900 dollar iwata. I truly think its in alot of painters heads that more expensive is better . Like people with name brand clothes or shoes etc.
I've used this gun on a total of about 30 cars full paint jobs nd a bunch of repaired parts fenders, hoods etc...and I haven't had a problem yet. You do definitely need a compressor that will give this continuous air. And it definitely helps to have a good spray shop. The only thing I would say is that I can spray faster with my other guns (complete jobs faster) but this thing definitely does a great job. If an apprentice it's great just practice with it nd get it dialed in nd your good. Not sure how long it will last but so far so good especially if you clean it like you would your more expensive guns nd not throw It around..
Very good stuff! Results look promising, thanks for the in-depth review! Just picked one of these up, gonna DIY a paint job on a Lincoln Town Car. Wish me luck! 🤞🏻
Like you said, the gun is definitely nice and lays down a smooth coat, but for the guys at home in not so good of a booth (exhaust mainly) and mediocre CFM, you might want to spring for something a little milder. The overspray from it seems a bit much, which is no problem for a pro booth. That's a major problem at home, though. The LPH, a LVLP, or some similarly priced lower overspray gun might be better. No knocks on the BW, it's a helluva gun, just thought it would be a little more home user-friendly considering their marketing.
Amazing how much work goes into to the prep work to turn around to take a 1 min or two to lay out paint maybe longer it’s like cooking turkey dinner takes so long for the prep and the foods gone in 15 mins .
Enjoyed your video. I was curious which paint cup system you’ve used in this video. I’m trying to find an economic paint cup system for the PPS 2.0. Any recommendation would be appreciated
Hell yeah bro I have never completely seen full video on RU-vid and I enjoy this video from , start to finish awesome job brotha💪 definitely subscribing and showing my friends about your work🤙 stay blessed and keep up the awesome videos💯
You just took me to school. I learned more in this one video with more information than 4 years of all the videos I have watched. Thanks for this. You should teach class'.
Can you take apart the black widow and buy upgraded parts for it like a better nozzle a better tip better rings and would the gun perform better if you had those better parts inside it
I been using this BW for a few weeks. For the money its really good. Has a decent fan. Not the fastest gun but fast enough. It doesnt compare to top tier guns. It is comparable to guns like the LPH/W400 and Tekna. The built quality is good. I dont see much going wrong with it if you take care of it
Spraying sealer isnt hard ? Dont know sometimes you can soray it rough and thats pretty much screws yo entire paintjob. Bit then again i use cheap uk brands. But still and sealer is hard to sand if you do screw it up
Looks good. Is there anything in that top candy to control though? Jw. Alot of reds in Envirobase I spray don't have any sparkle lol. Alot of reds have candy in the clear now
hello and thank you for the videos I watch you all the time could you help me out with that adapter number sata RPS cup I just bought that gun I seen the results you have got on it
Top of the line paint guns still wouldn't make a poor skilled person a good painter. I have painted with lots of guns. I still have a old Banks model 7. Even have a 30 dollar POS. They all work.
Yes they all work. But I’ll disagree that they do not work the same. A 30 dollar pos will use far more paint and take a hell of a lot more skill to get decent results. A good quality tool WILL make it easier on people especially while learning. I think it’s worth skipping the crap guns for something decent so you can remove the gun being a problem as a factor.
I have the first black widow it works pretty good. Now I’m gonna go buy one of these new ones. The job came out beautiful keep up the great work. RESPECT!!!
I’m not a painter but I want to paint my motorcycle that I built so I’m not going to buy a $600 dollar but I think I will pick on of those black harbor freight guns up , thanks for the video
Put a high-end name on it, charge $950 for it, and people won't eat for a month to buy it 😄. Don't tell anyone what you sprayed it with and they'll swear you sprayed with a phaser or 4600
It’s not really suited for that. The black widow 1.7 is going to be the best for primer and I’ve used that setup and do use it every single day. Works fantastic!
hey olie! im wondering if you could give me some information and knowledge around 4:14. i see you are using a tac rag and this lazer thing before you spray. im wondering what that is and what brand tac rags those are? my body guy does not like to use tac rags because he said some brands leave a coating and mess with the future layers.
I use waffle weave crystal tack and the sikkens brand tac rags. Biggest thing is do not pretty down on the panels with them. And the lazer is just the light from my anti static gun. Basically removes static charge from panels to help keep dust that’s floating around being attracted to the parts. 🍻
A control coat or a drop coat is sprayed further away. Use it when shooting metallics to even out the appearance across the entire panel. It comes in a little drier, and gives the Metallics less time to flow out. The result is the Metallics look consistent.
I just finished watching a guy who is a professional painter and use this same gun with a 60 gallon air compressor and says it's the perfect beginner and apprentice gun. So he says the opposite that you did.
It’s perfect to start with. Not great on a small compressor. It uses 10.6 cfm which you need at a bare minimum 60 gal. Even with that you’ll starve for air and it’ll drop on big projects. 80 gal large 220v compressors can keep up no problem. Issue is most diy don’t have that big of a compressor. So LVLP guns are better options for those.
I think scott missed something in the video. Oli says at the beginning of the video it is absolutely the best spray gun for the apprentice @@soulfuzz368
