    [quote]Like you Ryan, I wish they would bring that gun over here otherwise I reckon we’ll go Sata…and where’s that Englishman Andy? Pack your case full of GTi Pros and bring ’em over![/quote]

    I wouldn’t count on Andy coming over with a case of GTI Pro’s anytime soon. I think he sleeps with an Iwata next to him at night. Hell as many cars as he paints in a day that thing may be attached to his arm at this point. 😛

    What aircap are you using on your GTI Pro’s?

    I like the CVI for Cromax Pro a lot other than that I don’t like it for much else

    You’re not too far off as it happens – I bring them home with me every night rather than leave them at work :lol1

    GTI PRO’S are indeed good guns and they are coming down in price

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/X2-DEVILBISS-GTI-PRO-SPRAYGUNS-T1-BASE-T2-CLEAR-BNIB_W0QQitemZ300395965359QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Body_Shop_Supplies_Paint?hash=item45f0feabaf#ht_638wt_1163

    Mine has been put to the side at the moment I now have new painter and he has a couple of sata’s that he like to use.

    When ever I paint anything I use gti pro for base and still have a standard gti for clearcoat.

    [b]never seen a post do that before i just copied the link and it displays the item :blink: [/b]

    What aircap are you using on your GTI Pro’s?

    We are all using T1 caps for both base and clear with the 13 nozzle, great finish, accurate to the color cards. That’s 29psi at the gun.

    If Devilbiss offered this gun here, I think Sata and Iwata would have some serious competition!

    Just used my new ws400 :exci

    Best gun for clear.Its a little slow but it lays down as good as the sata rp3000 but I feel its harder to run with it.

    Excellent gun isn’t it!

    Did you get a 1.3 or 1.4? The one I have is a 1.3, but it isn’t quick enough for me, so I’m looking to get a 1.4 very soon. And I here what you’re saying about runs too – I’ve only managed one tiny one so far (in 100+ jobs) and I’ve been trying hard! :lol1

    I have the 1.3 but I’m used to choking my 1.3 rp3000 so the speed isn’t to big of a problem. Sprayed Nason 465 clear and this gun made it look like Spies 8180 clear. I had a little sag on the second job i used it on but i can be sanded out with 2000 grit 😛
