I BOUGHT EVERY PAINT GUN AT HARBOR FREIGHT! BUDGET FRIENDLY TO PROFESSIONAL QUALITY! PATINA RAT ROD 

I watched the different segments again and again to compare the fog and application. I agreed with your assessment. I am retiring and wanting to get back into body work for fun. My old binks was nothing compared to that spectra. The old bowl gun just became a primer gun. Going tomorrow and will be seeing if they have kids for it in the store. We never had these block sanders and allot of the new stuff. Been out of it since 1991 when i changed employment to afford a family. Thank you for the comparisons.

Love the car, so happy to hear that your going to paint the roof and do the lace pattern it will look awesome. Can't wait to see more keep them coming.

I picked up a hart automotive paint gun from Walmart for the hell of it and I been painting for 30 years and got 25 bucks the hart paint gun lays out clear freaking sweet way better then the low end harbor freight ones after cleaning the assembly lube out no complaints on my end

Great comparison and value your impressions of each gun. Sounds like the green gun is a good improvement from purple for very little cost.

This was really informative on top of being very entertaining. I have a much clearer idea of which gun I should use on my (as yet hypothetical) project. Thank you!

Nice little review on the different guns. People love honesty

Really appreciate this vid since I was actually thinking about getting a cheap intro paint setup 👍

glad ya left the top for a lace job.... good call 👍👍👍👍

I'm so glad that you went with the clear. It looks a lot better and it will give more protection for years to come. When you do the top you should take which ever gun you think sprayed the best and give it once over coat over the whole car to just blend it all together. That's if there is a big differences between the panels. Would be even great if you signed the inside of the trunk lid and even clear coat that as well, so the winner will have and cherish it for years to come. Keep up the great work and content.

GREAT VIDEO CASEY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! GREAT EDUCATION AND SO MUCH FUN!!!! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK!!!!! GOOD LUCK WITH ALL OF YOUR PROJECTS!!!

I like painting cars, but I'm no artist. It's nice to see an HONEST review. Happy father's day Casey.

Loving that old Chevrolet... thanks for the video 👍👍.... keep em coming and take care

Thank you Casey, great info, man I love that car

I'd like to see you paint actual paint on a prepped surface. I think that would make it easier to see the differences. Looking forward to the Black Widow vs. Sata video. Does the Black Widow come all set up with the disposable cups? Makes the difference between the $140 and Black widow even more negligible.

Thanks for the comparison video Casey. I know which gun to purchase for primer and finish going forward.

awesome video man thank you

I know they're awesome video as usual Casey! Keep on coming brother. You always keep me riveted. Always enjoy your channel! Keep On Keeping On brother!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great video. This has convinced me to spend more on a paint gun next time I paint a car!

Just grind the old finish off and give that car a whole spray. She’s earned it.❤

Harbor Freight just open a new store in my town, this past Thursday. Before I would have to travel about 45 to 60 minutes to get to one. I've stayed away from it this weekend, but plan on going to check it out on Monday. I've never shot paint before, so videos like this will help me when I get done with my project. Keep up the great work. Later Bart

Hey Casey, next do a electric spray gun test from HF. They sell a few different models and you don’t need an air compressor.

I could really dig driving around in that old Chevy looks awesome

I like the way this Chevy is shaping up! I'd like to see a paint comparison but you know when you use a tool if it's better. Thanks for saving me the expense of trying this my self on my friends bike.......lol

I use the green gun for primer and enamel implement paint for tractors. It sprays out pretty decent. I have more expensive guns for base coats and high solid clears. But don't be afraid of those harbor freight guns. They are cheap yes but they work great.

Great content.... keep it comin'

Awesome video!! I'll start saving for a Black Widow!

I only do a paint job about once every 5 or 6 years. I never clean the purple gun except before use. I throw it away and get a new one next time. The thinner, acetone, mineral spirits, whatever you clean it with, costs money too. If I were to get a Black Widow, I would baby it and make it last the rest of my life. Usually if I am painting it myself, it is a beater and I am trying to save money.

Great video, thanks!

Harbor Freight Rocks ! Good Vid Happy Father's Day!

Whoever nosed my Chevy filled in where the hood ornament went, but where the crest went they just welded the holes shut and put in a handful of bondo which ended up cracking after 10 years. The color coat we used (black) when we sprayed it came in patchy, so you could see the primer through it and we were TERRIFIED that it wouldn't cover. Once we added the clear, it went from looking like a $10 rattle can job to looking like piano gloss black, we couldn't believe it! 😮

That would be sick if you do a video on whats the cheapest you could paint a car with a compressor and paint gun maybe some painting tips

Hfd everyone another great video I was shocked to see how much the shop fogged with the 2 cheaper guns

Casey looks like a grown human version of Jimmy Neutron! He was a genius too.

Love the 53 and 54 styles of Chevy

I love love love love this car!!!!

I love your videos man! Have you ever thought about doing an old school motorcycle cafe racer/ rat bike build?

Harbor Freight used to sell a gun that was all silver with a gold end cap and that gun sprayed excellent. Although i think the quite making it after the black widow gun started selling well.

Love this rig buddy

Loving that 54. looking better all the time

Happy Rad Dad's Day Casey ! Damn that looks way better with clear on it..I like all those 🔫'z

Good video.... keep up the good work

great review and my car is looking good 😁

Absolutely BEAST

First in here And Loving the Video ❤️👍👍

Holy over spray on the mustang batman

Happy Father’s Day ! Good vid !

Helpful tip, u want the gun to be 90° to what ur spraying or else the closer part of the fan gets more product

Kool beans!! Looks good from my house😜

Sweet I think I’ll make a harbor freight run now lol

AWESOME car wish I could have a car like that for Kearney Nebraska cruise night and car show July 12th

Came for the '54 Chevy. My fav.

Looks awesome really Surprise me too

Which is going to be better for painting trailers and equipment a hvlp or hte gun? It's hard to keep from getting orange peal in some of the equipment paint. Especially kubota and ih colors. I'm new to this so some of it may just be me and not the gun

The gun For $150 looks a lot like a Sharp Finex 3000 other then the fan adjustment is in a different place, and when you spray you should try to be a little closer to the panel. 👍

Hey what compressor are you using? I plan on re painting my car soon and i’d like to know some tips on what i would need

I was looking at the black widow guns. I noticed there was 2 variants, an hte and hvlp. Which one did u try out?

Looking good my brother love the 54

Great video 👌🏼

Any gun will work fine new and well maintained.

Happy Father's day Casey.

What about the hte black widow paint gun they have

With black widow can u spray prime paint and clear??

AWESOME VIDEO BROTHER

Yep - the Black Widow has a screw on mix pot - takes the pain out getting paint into the gun, cuts a (bleep) ton worth of clean-up on less-than-full-car jobs. 😎 (And there's the '65 Mustang-infused be-bop-mobile! Love that.) Masked up for 2-tone patina? 😁 [JOKE] Ooh! You need an exhaust fan. Look for someone changing out an old house forced-hot-air-heater and set up a filler panel with the blower to let your overhead down on - clears like a wizard. (Set it up to suck in around the shaft opening - just some round HVAC ducting.) All those guns laid down nicely. Especially considering that it was hot. I think the Wizard was a little ahead of you - that thing put down some paint!! I was used to DeVilbiss MBC-style siphons BITD. Gravity feed is an adjust for me. Glad to hear the glass is coming for the '54 Chevy - that is a beautiful old car. Thanks for the great work - Happy Fathers' Day!

Happy Father's Day Casey

the spyder is bad ass use mine all the time, cant afford that SATA stuff

That 54🔥🔥🔥 the want level is high!!!!

Is that 54 Chevy automatic transmission? Thanks!

Fyi to anyone thinking of trying the purple harbor freight gun take the factory o ring out and replace it with a hillman H#780003 o ring and the gun will spray very nice and last the biggest problem with these purple guns is they leak

What CFM and at what pressure are you running?

Thanks

Happy Father's day Casey! Thanks for the review, really interesting. Since I build custom minibikes I'm wondering if the 25 dollar gun would be good enough? Also what pressure were you working with?

I typically shy away from harbor freight. I appreciate the effort you put into this review.

You know what would feel better in my hand ? That 50 or 51 ! LoL

It seems like the bonnet have more shine.

awesome

New sub! Liked ✌️✌️👍😮

Clear coat?!? Oh please no!!! It's perfect the way she sits! I'm actually going to cry! But I still LOVE your channel so I guess I'll suck it up. Btw, both my parents are from 1954.

This would look real nice in my driveway 😂

Happy Father's day to you 🍻

MY DAD HAD A DEVILBISS SPRAY GUN. I SPRAYED THE 283 WITH THAT GUN. SO AS MY BUSINESS GROWS, SO WILL MY TOOLBOX AND ACCESSORIES!!!

Hey Casey, I'm just curious, have you ever used compressed oxygen, say like from an oxy/acetylene set, to spray paint? I'm so frickin curious as to what it might be like. Absolutely no moisture, pure O²? Would it change the fineness of the paint or the pattern of the spray? Would it make a difference in the amount of paint that you would use? Again, I'm just curious, that's all. Just curious if you have ever done that or thought about it. Hmm? Okay, enough weirdness out of me. 😄 Haha! Later, God bless,✌️peace

Hold the gun where the fan pattern is squared not on a angle rotate your hand forward

High Pressure Low Volume guns were outlawed in the 80's I do believe... The switch to High Volume Low Pressure guns took over, due to certain mandates, I forget the technical name for it...

On big things like the bumper use tinfoil to mask it (I know you cleared them but for future)

Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads.

You gonna get overspray on the mustang!!! Lol...

Easy to get "priced into" the top level guns. Lotta research and data analytics goes into pricing stuff like this, they start with pricing the top level gun and then step down just enough to make you think like Casey did "why not spend a little more and the get the best gun?" The cheap ones are targeted at people that will use them once or twice and throw them away.

The nozzle cam was the shit.

Great clip man.

Why not tape the windows your dash is getting all this over clear spray

👍

Did you compared Black widow to Sata jet???!!!??? 🤣🤣🤣😂😂

I'm not Sure why you even taped anything off it looks like the over spray was getting everywhere.The clean up must have great.

👍🏻🍺

ROD AND CUSTOM 101

Happy Fathers Day

So what your saying is if you want a V8 why buy a 4 cylinder🤔🙂

1st

I thought it was stainless not chrom
