So Does anyone here have any experience or opinions on the Sharpe 775? I'm gonna use it to paint a couple cars and tubing with some enamel, either tractor paint or the stuff i can get at the local ACE. Figureing on thinning it a bit, but what kind of nozzle do you think I'll need? Odds are I will just use whatever is already on the gun, but any input is welcome.

also, the gun has what I think is a pressure guage screwed in where the manual says there should a plug, part 16169 on this http://www.sharpe1.com/sharpe/sharpe.ns ... penElement link hiere. What does that tell me? I hear things like pressure at the head, pressure at the tip, line pressure thrown around, and I really don't know much about them, and I think some are HVLP only, etc. If someone could tell me what that guage reads, I can go do some research.

thanks guys, been a huge help
give a man a watch and he'll allways know what time it is. give him two and he can never be sure again.

Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.
