[quote=”tcsauto” post=19033]So what`s the difference between the RP & the B?[/quote]
RP is hybrid of HVLP and high pressure.
B is HVLP.
Man this post is a blast from the past. I guess I should update, stick with the 3000. After using the 4000 for a bit I think the 3000 is a better gun. The 4000 can lay a flat coat of clear but it is slower and more finicky.

I been using a co workers 3000 RP 1.3. It works well for me but its sooo loud at 33psi. One of our reps told me to crank it up yo 35? It really kicks at that pressure. Does the 4000 require that much pressure?
No it only needs a max pressure of 32 psi now,they changed the nozzle setup and it is pretty quiet.Honestly I don’t mind the 4000,don’t find it finicky either,just a little slow and hot weather can be a pain even with a 1.4.My biggest complaint is it doesn’t put out enough material,but if you don’t mind a slower gun it is fine.I am not a big fan of the 3000 either,I keep going back to my first gen rp with a 1.4,the other 2 sit in my toolbox.

Thats good to know. I have been thinking about picking a 4000 up. Im glad to hear that it quieter. Not to crazy about hearing that its slower than the 3000. The 3000 I have been using has a 1.3. Maybe if I should go with a 1.4 in the 4000? just to get some more speed out of it? I have trouble getting around a bumper cover using my LPH400 when spraying energy pro with spot and panel activator. Thats why I started using the 3000 RP. I dont want that to be the case with an expensive 4000.
Why not just slow down the activator.
Should allow you to put on a thinner smoother coat that will dry quicker.
Energy pro is a fast clear,and one of my least favorites.Slowing it down will help.
