I haven't done it personally but I've seen reviews where people have. The thing is you have to thin the paint down quite a lot so you don't get much coverage based on my experience of using it with both oil and water based paint. It worked quite well when I used thinned down red oxide but not so great with water based acrylic. So overall, yes it's possible and with abit of patience you could get an OK finish. However, with a single stage hvlp it's probably not worth it. It really depends how much you intend to use it and what for. I'm after a 4 stage hvlp now as I'll be spraying a metal security door soon and then all of my woodwork. The more stages the more turbines and the thicker the paint you can use. You could probably pick up a 2nd hand apollo 3 stage hvlp that would do the trick quite well for you, or you can hire one maybe?
brush paint cantity 3 time less?
Spraying does tend to get more product on, I wouldn't say its 3 times more though. It's about 50% more than brushing
Six paint brushes would have changed the odds.
Or a broom? 🤔

Are these spray guns any way good for glossing doors? Will the finish be good enough? Thanks
