Brilliant review mate, I myself have been using this gun since I had it as a demo around 7 weeks now and its fantastic, currently using a 1.3 tip for basecoat and Clearcoat and I'm on my 95th job using the same tip without any problems. Been painting for over 30 years and I think 3m are onto something big here as it's a gun that will do the work of 4 guns just by changing the tips, so light and easy to use and clean, it's a 👍 up from me.
Can you explain your exact procedure for cleaning the gun and nozzles? I'm a beginner, would appreciate the help!
@@luke1811 I wash it with water then run it under the gun wash machine quickly, blow it out and it's ready to go again.
. 😢😮 😢
In a world full of social media shills, you really set the bar for how a man keeps his integrity and honor, and you prove it without apparent effort. Keep it up...you've got a loyal follower here.
I love that fact that you’ve kept your integrity, it’s very honorable.
Gunman thank you for keeping it completely 100% real and not selling out to any company. Much respect for your honesty throughout. Big shout out from the US brother.
Shit, that clear on the blue car at the end looks fantastic!
I just popped for one of these. I spray cabinets professionally and my personal automotive projects. I use a small shop compressor with 2 60gal air tanks. Works great for smaller jobs, when I do a car I just rent a gas powered compressor and tie it into my shop system. Gives me tons of air!. The throw away tips work great for me!
" ... not an e beggar " - I love this and much respect to you Sir for your honest genuine opinion !!!
The best Honest review in youtube...selute from Malaysia..
I was lucky enough to demo this gun before it was released to.everyone. I miss it very much. Makes production way more efficient. Boss won't buy tips so im not.gonna.get one. Still a damn good product.
Gunny. I wear your shirts for I main reason. Your complete honesty in your reviews. Well. Plus your a terrific painter. Keep up the terrific reviews.
Good advice that should reciprocate. You keep doing you,,,as well. No sellout, love it!
I've got this paint gun as a gift from my paint supplier store and it is wonderful for waterborne paint👌
It speaks volumes of just how expensive imports can be, Amazon and 3M direct in the US have the basic set at 170 USD plus tax and 325 USD for 15 Nozzles and additional parts + gun.
I’m gonna buy one hopefully this week. I’ve seen them at local paint supply places for $320 and on Facebook market place for $170. Hoping to get an amazing finish when I paint my boat
Will be a nice sealer/ sometimes base gun
170. It's probably a knockoff.
Great review . I have 1 off these guns ,great gun ,cleaning time and VOC reduced. Dramatically..
Nothing special to look at ,but fit for our workplace..spot on .
What I've found with the Accuspray is the clips that snap the air cap on go away rather quickly, and I have to wrap electrical tape around the thing to keep the cap from falling off when I pull the trigger
Great info, Gunny! This gun was recommended to me by a friend who spoke like you do. Bullet points and facts ... zero fluff. Did what he said and getting very good results here at home. Stay principled ... Cheers! ^v^
I am in the market for three guns. A primer/sealer, base coat and clear coat. And maybe one more to do complete spot repairs. What in your opinion are the best choices for each. I do mainly complete jobs and custom work. Speed is not a concern. Quality is number one with the idea as to glass out every job as slick as possible. Will not be trying to match peel. I would like to say I really do enjoy you videos. I have been painting for a long time but I still have learned a lot from your techniques. Thanks for taking the time to do all the videos.
I have always admired your ethics both in your work and your channel , full thumbs up from me cheers Gunny
Thanks for another honest no fluff review Gunny. I considered this until you mentioned HVLP only, FLG5 it is.
In the U.S. where 3M is based (Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing), HVLP is the standard, particularly because it releases much fewer volatile organic compound pollution into the air. As a newbie myself, I don't know about the old way of spraying, and wouldn't have new equipment available other than HVLP. The bottom line is that this is a gun that gives good results; it's much better than the dubious cheap Chinese stuff, and much cheaper than the top brands. Having used it for a couple of weeks in the shop and being satisfied with what it does, it should be just the thing for a home car painter. 3M says it's for professionals only: "For industrial/occupational use only. Not for consumer sale or use." so at least they are intending for it to be used quite a bit without it wearing out prematurely.
That blue is so beautiful!
The way you spray my friend is like a symphony brilliant if anybody was meant to spray it was you God bless
As a DIY/ garage painter myself, the price just doesn’t reflect a good value for money , here the 3M kit cost nearly 400 dollars, which is within the price range of a lot of top contender sprayguns, then you add a hvlp cap to it requiring high cfm and you pretty much blew out the DIY garage painters! I do like the fast cleaning but it’s not a high selling point for someone like me who doesn’t worry about timely repairs. Overall I think the spraygun is neither here nor there , it’s kinda just in the middle , and the on going cost for tips just doesn’t make sense for a long term investment for pro painters. Thanks for the review gunny! 🤙🏻
100%
That's how I feel. It doesn't seem cheap enough to justify buying it over something like a LPH 400.
Hard agree here, after buying 5 packs of nozzles you're well within the range of Sagola 4600 and Pro-Lite, both of which out give a better finish and after 10 times that youve got 10 guns that can all do specialized things, or instant swaps for different colors whereas with the 3m route you've just burned through thousands of dollars in nozzles and only have the one gun
Here I'm spraying at a high production shop for a nationwide auction and I have to spray 2-3 panels on 15 to 20 cars a day when there's enough preppers to clear out and mask a fourth booth, these guns would be a waste of money for us
Gunny. Hope you read this mate.
I owe you bloody big time, thanks to your tips and tricks, i've been able to spray a FPV GT-P BA model falcon in blueprint blue.
Brought an Iwata Bellaria W400 after watching your review, watched and rewatched you and Allan spraying that patrol in the shed.
Lost count of how many vids i have watched, from masking to spray technique. It all added up to an awesome spray job on my car, and i reckon it's a bit tricky too that colour.
Watched the AU ute vids in the same colour heaps of times to pick up any little tricks, especially the base coat, first attempt had a set of stripes a tiger would be proud of, but i got it in the end.
Few fish eyes and grit, but they ended up sanding and polishing out.
Thanks Gunny, i've ended up with a very nice result, and believe me, i'm a fussy bastard
Have that's awesome mate!!
I been saying for years. If they made this LVLP...
It would sell millions
Good for you for not selling out Gunny! Awesome video!
Purchased the 3M, subscribed, notified and liked. Thanks!
Appreciate your honesty gunman. You're a champ
love your attitude mate. Wish more people were like you.
Hats off mate i truly appreciate your independent view
Love your honesty mate, truth should not be for sale,
I agree with u 100% Gunman! Awesome
Review and even better quality of work!
Love your old intro tunes they are the best sounds awesome
A master at work once again. Brother that is art work on that car. Those 3M guns definitely do well but you hit it on the head. They have no soul and just dont seem to be as refined as DeVilbiss, Sata or Iwata.
You probs won’t remember this but I asked your advice about doing some clear coat flakey patches on my jag a while back and I’ve just taken it to the garage like you said do , glad I did bro thanks for your experienced advice dude appreciate it 🙏👍
Great honest review as always Gunny, there has been a lot of interest here for this gun and it's getting good reviews, most here are saying the 1.3 is good for base but the 1.2 is the best tip for clear they are getting a flatter finish. I was interested in this gun until I found out it was HVLP and that killed it for me as I don't have the compressor for that along with my airfed mask. Wow Gunny the prices for this gun where you are seem very inflated, the kit here comes in at £203 where you choose your tip size and you get a bag of spare ones with it which is a lot cheaper than a GTI Prolite. John UK
Respect to you! I love your honest opinion! true words ! you're not saying what people want to hear, it's too expensive! you're honest as always !! just gunny!! 👌🏻👌🏻👍👍
Thank's you for the info on this Spray Gun my friend has one it's cost over $2,000.00 I got a $600.00 Spray Gun that those a Real Good job he can belive the Paint job's I put out I always say the man behind the Gun.
Love u review and compare love 3m products but u are master about painting for me my favorite gunman all best keep going
Love your videos man, this system looks pretty cool!
Looks like the perfect gun setup for me.
I’m from America, I think all guns now are hvlp, I don’t think I’ve seen any non hvlp except from those old siphon feed conventional guns from the 80s
Your honesty is exactly why I follow you. Your a good dude !... What's your favorite gun of all time and how do I get my hands on one here in the states.
Looks like a great paint flow and job
I think they should come out with a 3.0 tip for spraying messy stuff like stoneguard and polyesters
Very proffessional review! You mentioned that this gun is not advisable for DIY use, due to the heavy air usage. Do you think I would run into problems using it with a Eastwood 60 Gallon Hi Flow 4.7HP Air Compressor?
This gun is awesome my company buys the nozzles it performs great if you think outside the box a little i.e. he is using 29psi in this video thats outside of the box but at the end of the day it produces fantastic finishes you dont have to clean it it does everything metallic pearl clear sealer adhesive promoter i offten use it start to finish and honestly thinking about buying a 2nd because I like to have 2 guns in the booth when im blending one for color the other for wet bed blender. If i do a big high end job... yea i dont use it.
[Instructions 3M pdf] says it runs 7-37 psi. It's a loud gun at 20 😄. I don't think you can get anything flat with this gun. Either reducer or 2bars....imo
Gunny that varnish was extreme !!
Absolute true, this gun has no soul, its just a good tool without some sort of personality
Had this as a demo, great gun and seems to be quite economical uses less paint than any of my base guns, my rep has said there bringing out a compliant aircap and also a .9mm spot repair cap so should be a one trick pony
Good honest review, thanks.
Bugger, pretty keen until you mentioned HVLP.
Thays why i watch this channel though, always get the 'good oil' on spray painting and associated tools
Cheers Gunny👍
I found one kit on amazon for $331 that comes with four 200 micron lids, one 125 micron lid, five each of the 1.2, 1.3, & 1.4, one standard size cup, and five liners. eBay has too many people price gouging.
What cfm compressor would be a minmimum to drive this thing? Stunning paint job you did with it, that blue one is memorising! Cheers
Requires 13 CFM at 20PSI.
Good and honest review as always GUNNY! Wondering if you've heard of the Cat-X spray gun? They are made here in the states. A little pricey but it comes with an RP cap and HVLP cap along with 3 different needles. Looking forward to the new Merchandise!
The air volume side put aside it looks like it lays down everything really nice even the clear looks fantastic, uniform, spray looks very consistent. Ultimately its use is very specific. It is not an enthusiast gun, and not a hobbyist gun. Looks more like a large repair shop part, however I am not sure if the cost of materials is worth the time saved from having to completely break down a metal gun.
After a few months using it, the seal now leaks.
Very expensive Thank you for the review stay safe gun man
Very good, this entry song was missing that sound, BRASIL Nova Friburgo RJ.
Is this really any different or better than the old accu-spray?
It's heaps better. That Accuspray was terrible, this one's awesome.
Cool stuff Gunny. Respect your opinion. It’s a decent all rounder if you have a top knotch air compressor setup I guess. Versatile though.
Thanks for sharing. Is there a 1 gun that does all for people spraying at home? Thanks
I would love to see a pressure pot review, i paint boats and use a pressure pot alot.
I have a 27 gallon 200 psi air tank at home. My tank wouldn't be able to run that gun at all?
Great finish Gunny
I'm also trialing 1 of these At the moment. Completely agree with the recomended air pressures. They're really low.
Really like the gun for basecoat... Not that keen on it for clear, due to HVLP. I hear there's an RP being developed though.
Great job!! I think is good paint gun kit, but at these prices..
i used the 3M spray gun at one of the last bodyshops I painted at I hated it honestly after like 10-15 sprays you would have to swap out the heads and if you didnt catch it at the right time the head would just pop off in the middle of spraying. I had the biggest headache trying to fix the damage caused from the heads popping off in the middle of spraying smh. Longevity was terrible
That is the old accuspray gun. This new gun is much improved from everything I have read and reviews I have seen.
I have 2 of them my other guns have been sitting since
Beauty full job 🎉
What tip and pressure settings do you recommend for the 3M Performance Spray gun shooting Axalta Cromax Chromapremier Single Stage Topcoat?
Well now you can get a base kit of that gun for ~ $280, i guess it's now a good deal?
How long do the heads last how many panels can you spray/ litres of material etc
I'm running a 2 stage 60 gallon. Think I should be able to panel paint with this?
What’s the recommended air compressor specs for the gun?
I bought an old used industrial 110 gallon compressor and simply had the pump rebuilt. New piston ring and bearings and replaced the bearings in the motor and she's a quiet singer. Never had a problem with hvlp. What do you recommend or were referring to. Lvlp or hte? You said conventional but those use more air.
I should have said LVLP, you're correct. A paint rep I work with always gets that one wrong so it runs off on me. Sorry, and thanks for correcting me.
You said Not for home use due to lack of volume of air. What are your thoughts of a compressor rated at 27 cfm at 90 psi 80 gal. tank to drive this? Great video BTW.
My tekna pro lite is my hi metallic tri coat ass kicker love it lph 400 for my clear
Have u ever cleaned wit the pro lite an if so wats your gun set up for it
Well to much politics in it for me. Love your vids most for the knowledge behind everything you take about. Will miss ya in the shop brother 👊
try the SEM "XXX" can gun cleaner. I find it a bit better than the 3m can gun cleaner
What gun do I recommend that spray the same??
Try using 1.2 for base I love it
What blade did you mention with a magnet early on in this video? Seems like a handy tool. I'm intrested!
Proper review
So I live in the US. I am a begginer. They actually make this in HVLP with Gravity feed as a kit for $385 US and HVLP Pressure feed and Gravity Feed kit for $500 US! So must be very expensive in australia.the gun by itself is between 250 and 300.
None the less, besides this gun what would you recommend for type( gravity vs. pressure) hvlp vs lvlp) what brands and models would you recommend for a beginner. I am looking to paint a few different panels on my 2015 Ford escape that come with the Tuxedo Black Metallic paint. If you could please make few recommendations I would greatly appreciate it.
Gunny I've been waiting for your review of this. I have considered getting one just for the ease of cleaning and how universal it seems however I'm looking for excellent finishes as I do restoration projects. What would you suggest for a good gun for me? Sealers, base, clear and even single stage. Along with the top set ups? I have a decent booth. Spraying solvent, upgrading compressor very soon.
Hey gunny.... i have a question about a dv1 clear gun i bought. Ive been using it for basecoat but ever since i bought it the fan has been spit. Top/bottom heavy. Doesnt matter where i adjust the fan. And the only way to sort of fix it is to spray at 1 bar on the digital gauge. But ive been experiencing mottle especially with silver. Do you think a cap replacement could fix this? Regards jamie
Seems like a much slower spraying gun. Curious how the clear peel looks
Slick I use a 1.4 using a high solids Clear 2-1-.5
nice finish
@The Guman, I just subscribed as I like the content of your videos and your style.
Do you think that the purpose of this gun is to pass the cost of the consumables to the customer? Would it, in that case, make sense to replace the consumable parts at every job?
Will this gun lay clear better than the black widow ? Thanks
Good job i wish i was good like you
I use brake cleaner it’s cheap 2 bucks a can no problems out of it
How did the tips hold up spraying at 29-30psi I spray lineX bedliners and our premium liner has a glossy black topcoat we spray over the lineX and it has to be sprayed with a 2.0 tip at about 30 psi. We tried using the older accuspray model but when we tried to spay at that pressure the tips would blow off and left us with quite a mess.
U need the HGP pot to spray the fat stuff and u can spray with lower pressure... Think of a pressure pot but on top of your gun 👍
@@r1crazy100 That's the accuspray gun with the little hose that goes to the cup to pressurize it right? I had one back when I was still working at a body shop when they first came out. Do they still only come with the tiny cup tho cause we use the medium size 22 oz. Cups otherwise we have to stop to refill 1 or 2 times depending on the size of the bed.
That’s the old set up my friend.. There is a new attachment which will go on this new PSG coming out soon ... Send me a PM and I will show you the set up 🤙
@@r1crazy100 lol yea I've been outta the paint game for a while I guess lol I'll probably PM you after I get outta work thx for the help bro
Gunny,make a video about tips&tricks about avoid paintruns. Think a lot of painters strugle with it,including me sometimes
I'll keep that in mind and see what I can come up with mate.
Okay, that fan sure looks different than the early version you reviewed. The one you stopped spraying with mid-,bumper😅
Very good review of this as well👍
I can get a kit here for maybe 350 U.S.
Hola una pregunta que precio tienen esas pistolas de gravedad.hvlp.
How many turns out was the fluid needle for the clear coat
sir how much that 3m spray gun set?
Have you tried the spray it 3300K lvlp gun? Would love to see a video on it from you using a 26gal tank.
