Really good for the price

Really good for the price. A few caveats to note: you will need to supply and install your own universal air hose quick disconnect if you intend to use one; The provided air control ball valve must be removed and discarded and replaced with a 3/8 inch full bore ball valve. The supplied ball valve is of very, very poor quality (see photo). As shown in the photo, the brass valve body is only 0.025 inch thick. This is approximately 22 AWG wire. Of course, be very careful when removing this flimsy ball valve to avoid twisting it and leaving threads on the pistol grip. Apply some silicone grease to the rubber o-ring to make it easier to install and remove the mud tank. Like any texture gun, keep it clean. A small bottle brush is suitable for this.
