I'd like to see you paint actual paint on a prepped surface. I think that would make it easier to see the differences. Looking forward to the Black Widow vs. Sata video. Does the Black Widow come all set up with the disposable cups? Makes the difference between the $140 and Black widow even more negligible.
I watched the different segments again and again to compare the fog and application. I agreed with your assessment. I am retiring and wanting to get back into body work for fun. My old binks was nothing compared to that spectra. The old bowl gun just became a primer gun. Going tomorrow and will be seeing if they have kids for it in the store. We never had these block sanders and allot of the new stuff. Been out of it since 1991 when i changed employment to afford a family. Thank you for the comparisons.
Love the car, so happy to hear that your going to paint the roof and do the lace pattern it will look awesome. Can't wait to see more keep them coming.
I'm so glad that you went with the clear. It looks a lot better and it will give more protection for years to come. When you do the top you should take which ever gun you think sprayed the best and give it once over coat over the whole car to just blend it all together. That's if there is a big differences between the panels. Would be even great if you signed the inside of the trunk lid and even clear coat that as well, so the winner will have and cherish it for years to come. Keep up the great work and content.
I picked up a hart automotive paint gun from Walmart for the hell of it and I been painting for 30 years and got 25 bucks the hart paint gun lays out clear freaking sweet way better then the low end harbor freight ones after cleaning the assembly lube out no complaints on my end
Harbor Freight just open a new store in my town, this past Thursday. Before I would have to travel about 45 to 60 minutes to get to one. I've stayed away from it this weekend, but plan on going to check it out on Monday. I've never shot paint before, so videos like this will help me when I get done with my project. Keep up the great work. Later Bart
I use the green gun for primer and enamel implement paint for tractors. It sprays out pretty decent. I have more expensive guns for base coats and high solid clears. But don't be afraid of those harbor freight guns. They are cheap yes but they work great.
I only do a paint job about once every 5 or 6 years. I never clean the purple gun except before use. I throw it away and get a new one next time. The thinner, acetone, mineral spirits, whatever you clean it with, costs money too. If I were to get a Black Widow, I would baby it and make it last the rest of my life. Usually if I am painting it myself, it is a beater and I am trying to save money.
I like the way this Chevy is shaping up! I'd like to see a paint comparison but you know when you use a tool if it's better. Thanks for saving me the expense of trying this my self on my friends bike.......lol
This was really informative on top of being very entertaining. I have a much clearer idea of which gun I should use on my (as yet hypothetical) project. Thank you!
Happy Father's day Casey! Thanks for the review, really interesting. Since I build custom minibikes I'm wondering if the 25 dollar gun would be good enough? Also what pressure were you working with?
Yes, the green gun will do a good job for you on the minibikes. I’m assuming your going to just be painting frames a black or silver then something a bit nicer for tanks and fenders correct? A couple years ago, I did custom paint on a couple food trucks and I used a couple of the purple $12 guns and they did a fantastic job. If you have any painting experience and skills already, then yes, the purple and green guns can deliver fantastic paint jobs. I’ve been using them for probly ten years for certain jobs so I don’t have to pull the high dollar guns out. The only issue with both the purple and green gun is they won’t last forever but I’d be willing to bet with as small a job as your doing and if you clean your gun good, your gonna be able to get a couple years out of each one. I Give it a try Lucas, I brt you’ll like it! Take care man and good luck to ya
@@1982MCI thanks for the info! Yeah before I adopted my niece and her two 1/2 brothers giving 5 kids. I used to work on cars and painted a couple. I work on custom vintage minibikes for the last 6 years. I always use spray paint and love metallic. I'm gonna give it a shot. And yeah they will definitely be cleaned and kept up.
GREAT VIDEO CASEY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! GREAT EDUCATION AND SO MUCH FUN!!!! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK!!!!! GOOD LUCK WITH ALL OF YOUR PROJECTS!!!
I know they're awesome video as usual Casey! Keep on coming brother. You always keep me riveted. Always enjoy your channel! Keep On Keeping On brother!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Harbor Freight used to sell a gun that was all silver with a gold end cap and that gun sprayed excellent. Although i think the quite making it after the black widow gun started selling well.
Yep - the Black Widow has a screw on mix pot - takes the pain out getting paint into the gun, cuts a (bleep) ton worth of clean-up on less-than-full-car jobs. 😎 (And there's the '65 Mustang-infused be-bop-mobile! Love that.) Masked up for 2-tone patina? 😁 [JOKE] Ooh! You need an exhaust fan. Look for someone changing out an old house forced-hot-air-heater and set up a filler panel with the blower to let your overhead down on - clears like a wizard. (Set it up to suck in around the shaft opening - just some round HVAC ducting.) All those guns laid down nicely. Especially considering that it was hot. I think the Wizard was a little ahead of you - that thing put down some paint!! I was used to DeVilbiss MBC-style siphons BITD. Gravity feed is an adjust for me. Glad to hear the glass is coming for the '54 Chevy - that is a beautiful old car. Thanks for the great work - Happy Fathers' Day!
They have their place. I generally don't buy stuff from them that I'm going to use every day, all the time. But some stuff that I only use ocassionally, they're decent.
The gun For $150 looks a lot like a Sharp Finex 3000 other then the fan adjustment is in a different place, and when you spray you should try to be a little closer to the panel. 👍
Whoever nosed my Chevy filled in where the hood ornament went, but where the crest went they just welded the holes shut and put in a handful of bondo which ended up cracking after 10 years. The color coat we used (black) when we sprayed it came in patchy, so you could see the primer through it and we were TERRIFIED that it wouldn't cover. Once we added the clear, it went from looking like a $10 rattle can job to looking like piano gloss black, we couldn't believe it! 😮
Which is going to be better for painting trailers and equipment a hvlp or hte gun? It's hard to keep from getting orange peal in some of the equipment paint. Especially kubota and ih colors. I'm new to this so some of it may just be me and not the gun
Hey Casey, I'm just curious, have you ever used compressed oxygen, say like from an oxy/acetylene set, to spray paint? I'm so frickin curious as to what it might be like. Absolutely no moisture, pure O²? Would it change the fineness of the paint or the pattern of the spray? Would it make a difference in the amount of paint that you would use? Again, I'm just curious, that's all. Just curious if you have ever done that or thought about it. Hmm? Okay, enough weirdness out of me. 😄 Haha! Later, God bless,✌️peace
It would be ungodly expensive, you’d prolly use 1000 dollars in gas for one paint job. Also there is no moisture in regular air if you have a hood enough drain/filter system, or at least you can get it so little that it’s unnoticeable
Fyi to anyone thinking of trying the purple harbor freight gun take the factory o ring out and replace it with a hillman H#780003 o ring and the gun will spray very nice and last the biggest problem with these purple guns is they leak
Clear coat?!? Oh please no!!! It's perfect the way she sits! I'm actually going to cry! But I still LOVE your channel so I guess I'll suck it up. Btw, both my parents are from 1954.
High Pressure Low Volume guns were outlawed in the 80's I do believe... The switch to High Volume Low Pressure guns took over, due to certain mandates, I forget the technical name for it...
High pressure was not outlawed except for California. You can still buy and use them most everywhere else in the country. The industry has pretty much leaned away from them tho and for the most part only use hvlp but since you can still walk into any auto body supply or online and buy the old high pressure low volume gun. I still use them today for certain things. There were some mandates and regulation changes you are correct about that but I’m only aware of them actually being outlawed in California. Others may have joined them by now, I’m not sure but I know it’s not nationwide yet. It’s kinda like the waterborne paints. California outlawed the solvent based paints a few years back and other states have it but don’t mandate it. Take care Mr. Ford, be safe out there
Easy to get "priced into" the top level guns. Lotta research and data analytics goes into pricing stuff like this, they start with pricing the top level gun and then step down just enough to make you think like Casey did "why not spend a little more and the get the best gun?" The cheap ones are targeted at people that will use them once or twice and throw them away.

Paint society done a review on the black widow verses sata gun
So basically, you recommend everything or anything, you love everything

Great comparison and value your impressions of each gun. Sounds like the green gun is a good improvement from purple for very little cost.

I like painting cars, but I'm no artist. It's nice to see an HONEST review. Happy father's day Casey.
I could really dig driving around in that old Chevy looks awesome
That would be sick if you do a video on whats the cheapest you could paint a car with a compressor and paint gun maybe some painting tips
Hey Casey, next do a electric spray gun test from HF. They sell a few different models and you don’t need an air compressor.

Just grind the old finish off and give that car a whole spray. She’s earned it.❤
Really appreciate this vid since I was actually thinking about getting a cheap intro paint setup 👍
Awesome video!! I'll start saving for a Black Widow!
Harbor Freight Rocks ! Good Vid Happy Father's Day!
Thanks for the comparison video Casey. I know which gun to purchase for primer and finish going forward.

Nice little review on the different guns. People love honesty
AWESOME VIDEO BROTHER
Thank you very much i like your vids!
This was really informative on top of being very entertaining. I have a much clearer idea of which gun I should use on my (as yet hypothetical) project. Thank you!
Helpful tip, u want the gun to be 90° to what ur spraying or else the closer part of the fan gets more product
Hfd everyone another great video I was shocked to see how much the shop fogged with the 2 cheaper guns

AWESOME car wish I could have a car like that for Kearney Nebraska cruise night and car show July 12th
I love your videos man! Have you ever thought about doing an old school motorcycle cafe racer/ rat bike build?
Great video. This has convinced me to spend more on a paint gun next time I paint a car!
Casey looks like a grown human version of Jimmy Neutron! He was a genius too.
I love love love love this car!!!!
First in here
And Loving the Video ❤️👍👍
Absolutely BEAST

Hey what compressor are you using? I plan on re painting my car soon and i’d like to know some tips on what i would need

Loving that 54. looking better all the time
With black widow can u spray prime paint and clear??
I typically shy away from harbor freight. I appreciate the effort you put into this review.
They have their place. I generally don't buy stuff from them that I'm going to use every day, all the time. But some stuff that I only use ocassionally, they're decent.
Recently they have improved drastically while still being a much better value than name brands
Kool beans!! Looks good from my house😜
I was looking at the black widow guns. I noticed there was 2 variants, an hte and hvlp. Which one did u try out?
Holy over spray on the mustang batman
Happy Father’s Day ! Good vid !

MY DAD HAD A DEVILBISS SPRAY GUN. I SPRAYED THE 283 WITH THAT GUN. SO AS MY BUSINESS GROWS, SO WILL MY TOOLBOX AND ACCESSORIES!!!
What about the hte black widow paint gun they have
Clear coat?!? Oh please no!!! It's perfect the way she sits! I'm actually going to cry! But I still LOVE your channel so I guess I'll suck it up. Btw, both my parents are from 1954.
It seems like the bonnet have more shine.
You know what would feel better in my hand ? That 50 or 51 ! LoL
Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads.
Hold the gun where the fan pattern is squared not on a angle rotate your hand forward
Happy Father's day to you 🍻

Did you compared Black widow to Sata jet???!!!??? 🤣🤣🤣😂😂
You gonna get overspray on the mustang!!! Lol...
Thanks
awesome
Why not tape the windows your dash is getting all this over clear spray
The nozzle cam was the shit.
I'm not Sure why you even taped anything off it looks like the over spray was getting everywhere.The clean up must have great.
So what your saying is if you want a V8 why buy a 4 cylinder🤔🙂
ROD AND CUSTOM 101
Happy Fathers Day
Can’t tell that much on camera? Maybe some base coat paint show the difference better?
Went to Harbor Freight yesterday and they saved me over $ 200 by having no help available.
😂😂😂 shit my store has like 3 employees bugging you ever 2 mins lol

You left out the $74.99 professional gun!
