How To Set Up a Harbor Freight Paint Gun

[@draytonPW]

Professional painters are awesome. I am really glad you guys are supporting all of us who just want to paint some parts without dropping a lot of cash on a professional grade gun. Thanks for the vid!

I forth that💯✊🏾. I feel the same way. I’m pretty savvy when it comes to some things and I want to paint my rims on my car.. I just don’t see myself dropping $400 $500 or , especially on Stock rims. I think they should get the job done along with painting some furniture around the house. Thanks for the video.💯✊🏾

9 minute video covers more and better (puns intended) than other 45 minute paint videos. THAT'S a time saver!

That’s because more than half the time you’re really watching an infomercial. “As seen on 📺🚫KZbin”.

[@tomstuart2652]

The best combination of advice: simple, complete, and to the point. I have a new HF purple gun. My first project was to refinish some outdoor furniture. I figured a mistake or so here wouldn’t matter. My wife was out for a few hours and when she returned she was amazed at the new chairs and table ready for summer BBQs. Good gun and great explanation.

[@itsmikebradley]

I love this. Straight to the point in well under ten minutes. No unnecessary narration.

[@socalRooster]

Wow you explained more in 8 minutes then paint guy at store showed me ...thanks

[@maurylee5239]

My wife wanted some registers painted. Saw this video and bought the cheap purple gun. Didn't have to read the instructions as this video was worth a thousand words. Sprayed the registers. My wife liked it so much she wants me to do all of them. Whoops, it worked too well. Great job on the video. Thanks for sharing. Made my day.

[@DaveyBlue32]

@@CostaAzulFishingDanielGarza you don’t want that cup gun buddy… for less then $200 you can get a 5 gallon pal pump spray rig at harbor freight and then you can get a 3’ extension gun… a big metal trowel and cardboard for the edges and go to town! It’s all in the prep work so make sure that you have got the prep done then it’s just a couple hours to spray the whole thing!

[@countrymagic61]

I just bought this purple gun about a month ago or so. Finally got to use it for the first time this past weekend. And I can tell you.....I don't know what I'm doing (misplaced the manual). I had problems spraying paint. I played with the knobs and air pressure ( I have a pressure gauge and moisture filter attached). Now I know how to set the gun up to a basic starting point and know what the knobs do. Thank you for the instructional video. It helped out a great deal. The major issue while I was trying to paint (other than me, operator error), was the paint. I went straight from the can to the sprayer (Rust-Oleum Professional Smoke Gray Gloss Oil-based Enamel Interior/Exterior Paint ). I did not thin out the paint. Was not getting a spray pattern. It was coming out with splatter droplets. So, with this video and thin out the pain, I think I will do better next time. As far as thinning paint.....how thin? I heard to thin out paint to the consistency of milk. OK. 1%, 2%, or whole milk? any advice?

[@gixerman01]

Ok I would use a viscosity cup. You can buy one on amazon. 20-24 sec on an ez zahn 2. Or you can start off by thinning by 25%. 3 parts paint 1 part solvent. Then spray a test piece. If it still sprays dry increase the solvent. Also make sure you pull out the filter from the cup. ( I would do that first) use a filter when you pour in the cup. I have a video where I paint some wheels check it out. Thanks for watching.

[@fishingismydrug1]

Simple, straight to the point! Thank you very much!! I have a boat and trailer to redo, and a couple spots on a car. You just gave me the courage to buy the gun and tackle it!

[@gixerman01]

[@tjmadden4688]

I bought this gun to paint some cabinets. Haven’t used a HVLP since high school in auto body class. I was so intimidated even scared, to use the gun. So I pulled out the airless sprayer it used way to much paint. Now I feel confident that I can use it. Thanks for the info.

[@zakaroonetwork777]

First thing to do is Clean the gun with Acetone to remove manufacturing grease.

[@gixerman01]

Jose Collazos I don’t have a Facebook for my KZbin channel. You can use that compressor. It may have issue keeping up if you spray large parts. Just pause and let it catch up and continue if that happens. Thanks for watching.

[@timbowles6]

Agree with the OP, thanks for sharing

[@cookinitmax]

Hi I got one just yesterday boy what a difference. I used it to paint door jams and cabinets you do have to thin paint I used a oil based primer for the underside and will mess with the top coat on a later day . Over all you really can't beat the price.

[@andrestamayo6509]

Been painting professionally for 15 years now(I restore construction equipment), and...those guns..are the ONLY ones that I use now. I have found, the better the paint...the better the finish. I've done 11 Bobcats(White, black and orange) with one gun. I've even stretched some to 18 projects. My customers love the results. Just make sure to keep the gun clean, especially the front nozzle. make sure to soak it in acetone, then, with a very fine wire...clean the time holes in the center.

[@frescali3030]

Most importantly clean all of the oil out of the gun with acetone before using these come loaded with oil everywhere disassemble and clean good if not you’re looking for problems

[@WAHDEEDOWthe2]

Fres Cali how do you do this?

[@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys]

won't acetone eat all the seals and paint off the gun???

[@testticklehead]

@@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys Use an old toothbrush, dip it in acetone, and only clean the internal metal parts. Do a search, there are a lot of videos that show disassembly and what parts to clean. Once its clean this spray gun is amazing. Good luck and happy spraying!

[@rogermccaslin6750]

@@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys I used to have one of these guns and I used acetone for cleaning after spraying polyester primer through it. Acetone won't be a problem in the fluid section of this gun. The cup is a plastic that isn't affected by acetone. Everthing else is metal except the needle seal which is teflon. Just put acetone in the cup and run it through the gun. The gun body is anodized aluminum and that's not affected by acetone so you can wipe the gun down with it if you wish.

[@smoky5833]

This was a great tutorial, short and informative. I don’t use a sprayer often, and have produced some excellent finishes. But since I don’t do it often it takes time to learn how to do it all over again. Your video makes that beginning learning curve non existence. Thanks Brother, good job!

I know with my biggest airbrush I could do the work, but it'd take a long time and since I don't have that amount of free time I'm looking at something bigger.

Thanks for the input and for watching!

[@ibast1]

I think "flud" means fluid. Good vid, but I must say you professional guys always set up your guns very wet, so you can work fast. I think for amateurs it's better to set up a bit leaner on the flud ;) and maybe a bit narrower on the fan and then work a bit slower with more passes. What do you think?

[@MizTori]

Thanks for this. I’m only painting my own car with single stage paint. I bought this gun to learn on.

[@jimwilson946]

I've looked all over KZbin for a video on setting up this paint gun and got nowhere until I found yours! Now I feel confident in using it. Thank great video. Ps. Does Harbor Freight have a manual on line as here in the UK all I can get is a mangled Chinglish version.

[@mikiejohnson7118]

I just bought that exact same kind of airbrushing paint spray gun along with an AVANTI airbrush compressor combo kit, an extra back-up airbrushing spray paint hose, & a two year return plan on all of the stuff at harbor freight in Lafayette Indiana not too far back. These are also my very first ones that I own because I've never done spray painting before even though I've always loved art & have been interested & fasinated in this type of stuff. I have an uncle who used to do automotive body painting on cars & other vehicles & what he told me about this kind of equipment goes in harmony with what you are showing. I appreciate how straight forward & honest this is. Keep it up 🙂👍👍🔫🎨. I just subscribed to your channel & I look forward to seeing more videos & thank you 😊. Go get em 👍👍🔫🎨.

[@42222]

Im painting my vw bug with this gun. And I set my static pressure at 70psi at the compressor. Through a 15feet hose that gives me about the right amount of dynamic pressure when spraying. Set my fan wide like he says. Marked my fluid knob with a sharpie and turned it all the way in and then turn it out 2.5 turns. Air setting on the gun is wide open. Im mostly 5"-6" away from the part when spraying. This gives me a nice gloss and no runs. I move the gun pretty quick but not to crazy. And do about 3 coats in 15min intervals for my 2K Acrylic single stage paint job in my garage. After that I need to wet sand with 2000 though because of dust nibs. The things that suck with this gun is you don't get a nice football shape spray pattern more like one straight line and it need pretty high air pressure to atomise correctly. But you can still get a decent job out if it if you know how to work this gun.

[@JamesSmith-lt5zz]

If you get the automotive two gun kit for 49.99 the one large gun is a devilbiss starting line gun. Same fluid and air cap and parts interchange. If someone wanted to save half the price

Hey man! I really appreciate your time and I like to a ask, some about cleaning the gun, if you have any tips or the right way to clean a paint gun?

[@gixerman01]

Saul Basua best thing to do is run some lacquer thinner thru it pull the air cap. fluid tip and needle and wipe them down with some thinner. Then put it back together and flush again with clean thinner. I usually leave some thinner in my gun and store my air cap in it. This makes sure no residue will set up if you didn’t get it clean. I store mine hanging up and I use them quite often. If yours will not be used very often then you may just want to flush with solvent till it’s empty and store it dry. Thanks for watching.

[@gixerman01]

anonymous lacquer thinner is good to use.

[@gixerman01]

anonymous if you paint a car you going to need larger air compressor. This gun requires a minimum of 6 cfm at 40 psi. You would be better off to get something bigger than that.

[@gixerman01]

anonymous 6 cfm at 40psi is what the gun called for, but Before I went out and bought an air compressor I would do a little research on what you needs may be later with other tools you may need. Air tools for body work are usually air hogs and require quite a bit of air. Look into the requirements of other tools you may need later first.

is there something wrong with my pressure reg.at the gun working properly/?It goes to 0- 40psi ,no inbetween unless I lower it T THE COMPRESSOR?

[@jakeclauson9863]

@@sonnybee8271 iv used the hf gun with no regulator at the psi coming out of the compressor, and it came out perfect. It also used way more paint then it would at the proper psi. But if you got extra paint to waste then so be it. But if your trying to be as efficient as you can, which a DIYer should want to do, then you should spray at the proper psi. If a panel only requires 2 oz why use 5 oz to get the job done? Or if the guy selling you the paint says 2 oz will be more then enough and you go home with 2 oz but your gun isnt set up right so it blows thru that 2 oz before the job is done.. but like I said if you got paint/money to burn sand that's the only way you know then that's fine. But you doing a disservice to everyone trying to learn by watching this

I have the same H. F. gun. The issue I'm having is the gun "won't" spray. Liquid goes in the "Hopper" and then when the trigger is pulled, liquid bubbles out the top whole in the cap. So, I disassemble the gun-clean it rigorously looking for any particulate that could cause a blockage and then re-assemble the gun. I use small brushes on a metal shaft and some very small metal shaft devices to clean orifices. Last night I let all parts and pieces soak in gun cleaner overnight thinking something might/must be lodged in one of the orifices. Any and all suggestions are appreciated. I'd even welcome going "ear to ear". thank you.

Thanks for the tips. I have one but never got to use. I will give a shot this weekend. Cheers
