Review on 🎨 Astro Pneumatic Tool 4008 Spray Gun with Cup - Red Handle 1.8mm Nozzle: Your Ultimate Painting Companion by Carlos Barrett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does its job perfectly!

After rolling and brushing 5+ coats on my bedside table and painting multiple colors I had issues with bleeding when applying a clear coat - I started investigating sprayers. I already have an air compressor, so I bought it to repaint my headboard to match (and for a list of other projects). Cleanup is a breeze, but it takes me a hell of a lot of time to get a decent spray size. Haven't explored it again yet (will be soon) - it's great for small projects, but this one takes longer and requires more layers than I expected. However, the headboard frame came out AMAZING, very smooth and evenly coated, but the two panels surrounding the frame turned out to be textured, I'm guessing from overspray (lightly sanded to a smooth finish, so no big deal). I use white chalk paint - that might be part of my problem, but I'm much happier when I've got the creases out of the way and get a larger, more even spray pattern.

Pros
  • Long lasting finish
Cons
  • Problems
