    I’m currently in the market for a new gun and was looking for some suggestions. My budget is around the $400 dollar mark. I currently have an iwata lph 400, satajet 1000 RP and a few other cheapies including a devilbiss starting line.

    You should be able to pick up a Devilbiss Tekna for around $400. Its a great all around gun at a reasonable price. I use 2 everyday for the past 3 yrs. and have no complaints. Been hearing good things about the Pro lite too, i havent gotton to try it yet.

    I just bought a Tekna last month for $320.00. It came with 1.2 1.3 & 1.4 needles and fluid tips, digital regulator too.

    I did own a chrome tekna with a 1.3 setup I found it a little slow with low solids clear which we use at work. Has anyone used a sharpe razor compliant? They look like a quality made American gun.

    What will you be using the gun for and which products will you be spraying?

    Will be using it for Standox solvent base and medium solids clear coat.

    Hey I’ve just got a devilbiss gti prolite with a 1.3 te10 for solvent and clear coat and mate its awesome great money well spent. Easy to use, nice and lite plus no effort needs to spray with 😉

    Hey mate. No you only set the set up on the gun, no extras or hard case. When you buy it you choose the set up and the stamps you want ie : for clear or base

    Looks like I might be going with a satajet 3000 RP the new anodised blue ones available from the UK.
