what sort of psi and cfm? i only need to spray panels and bumper and have a 100 litre compressor.
for w400 (not compliant gun) inlet pressure recommended is 29psi..if u go with w400lv (compliant gun) your inlet pressure is around 16-20psi..i also using 100L compressor with 2hp motor with no problem
I’m a SATA guy but if your considering the w400 go with that one. Good reputation
what cap are you using paintbreaker? lv2?
this is the gun i want and comes with lv2 but runs at 2.0 bar which is 29psi

make sure u receive your spray gun like this:
http://www.asetusa.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=162wouls u consider the w400 lv2 a good gun for clear? does it require much air and does it layer the clear nice and flat? would you recommend a 1.3 or 1.4 tip? cheers
I’d consider the WS400 Supernova as well. It really is a great bit of kit. I’ve had one on demo for a fortnight and received a pair of my own today!
yes but they’re a lot more expensive! i’d love one though.
w400 is old model before w400lv (compliant gun)..the different is air cap and nozzle. if u want to convert w400 to w400lv just change lv4 aircap and change the nozzle. the famous iwata’s clear coat gun is w400/w400lv. w400lv inlet pressure is 20psi..so can less overspray and save your paint. w400 inlet pressure is 29psi. if you have more budject i recommend w400lv..if not u can go with w400. dont worry because u can convert your w400 to w400lv..just change air cap and nozzle. my suggestion is 1.4 tip for clear coat. myself also using w400 with no problem..atomizing very fine..im loving it
