Spray Guns
I need to paint some panels on a couple cars and I thought it would be a good time to try to do it myself. I need a decent spray gun. There are 1000's advertised. Any pointers to one would be appreciated.

Get a HVLP Gravity feed. A cheap one will be ok to learn with. If you want a decent one for vcheap Devilbiss makes one called a "Finish Line"
tHAT IS ABOUT $110 sprays great and it comes with two different sized heads.

Tod74 is right. The two size heads will make the guy more versitile. Same gun for primer and paint/clear. The very cheap guns ($50-90)do not have servicable parts. They are disposable when broken or wore out.
