Great idea. I wanted to buy an open box Avanti at my local HF for $350 but rep says no warranty. I declined. I was going to use it for primers and my Precision 5 for Bc/Cc.

I bought the Apollo used. Came with a broken gun, but every needle, nozzle, cap you could want plus the hose. So it was a good value. The Sprayfine was new but under 600 at the time I bought it. Has performed great. No adjustments, but not needed as I would use full psi for clear anyway. For guns I use the 7700 Apollo and the latest T series Fuji. Have a couple cheaper guns for sealer or general priming.

Nice! Great content. Why the smaller needle with bigger cap?

@@barnsey96 with the Apollo gun you can mix and match the caps, needles, nozzles to create your own desired result. I wanted a very fine spray with little peel to match the paint on a Miata job. The CC cap is the finest cap. The 0.5 needle with the 0.8 nozzle was an experiment that worked. It layed out thin coats. I did 100 percent overlap 2 or 3 times before dropping down 50 percent for the next pass. A bit slow, but slow down to go fast. I did not have to buff for peel. And I needed to get it done that day. Any time I can avoid buffing, it's a good day👍

Got a question for you. I finally bought my base (2:1) Do you think 1.5 gallon of sprayable is enough for engine bay, jambs, and exterior. I'm doing a color change on 2000 civic coupe. Color is Obsidian blue metallic(very dark) My undercoat is Speedokote Trex sealer in black. From my understanding turbine spraying uses less paint. Thank you.

@@alpha2daquest885 if you are spraying with a turbine and a 1.0 nozzle should be plenty more paint goes on the panel and not in the air with a turbine. I used that amount on a Beetle with 3 or 4 coats needed as the paint was not covering well over the grey primer. So quality of the base coat can make a big difference in how much you use as well

@@BearBudgetTurbine I see what your saying. Better quality paint covers better. I might just buy 1 more quart of base just for bay. Heck even single stage. This project is adding up $. At least next paint job I'll have the equipment and just buy consumables. Do you think I should buy the .8 needle/nozzle as Apollo recommends for auto paint?

With the Apollo, I would say yes on the 0.8 especially for clear. Cc cap is good to have as well. But everyone has different preferences. I want the finest atomization I can get out of the turbine
