No problem there - they are mainly in CA - a few stores in NV, AZ, and OR,
and 1 in KY. Here in ALabama - it's mail order. They have quite a variety
of stuff - and everything I've seen from them is excellent quality for the
price. Check out their home page at http://www.harborfreight.com. Request
a catalog.

Same here - I was thinking about the purchase of an HVLP gun, but my local
auto body supply shop tells me only one body shop in town used them - and
went back to a standard high pressure siphon type gun (I can't recall the
manufacturer). It appears to me the advantage of the HVLP gun is less
wasted paint and solvent (important in localities where air quality is
stringently regulated) - and not the quality of the finish. Any experts out
there that could confirm this suspicion?
I'd like to see the thread expanded to painting systems and paint types.
Thanks!
