Sounds like we need a GunMan edition of the FLG5 😎
Because of him doing the flg5 videos I've bought one and started painting myself, he's given me the knowledge and confidence to get out there and paint some shit and that's all anyone needs, after my last paint job I've got relatives harassing me left right and centre, got friends asking what gun I use and how to use it, can't thank him enough
@@benhuntly2549 - 💯👍 the problem is like the Pro Lite used to be $350 and the FLG5 was < $200. Now DeVilbiss knows their value so they are ridiculously overpriced.
@deVilbiss
Got this gun on your recommendation year a go
Painted wing and bumper yesterday came out like mirror i was so happy man you don’t know how much i respect you
You are truly a artist!
I like it when you go off topic in your vids Gunny 🤷♂️ sometimes you drop bits of knowledge on paint systems amongst other things that I might not of known otherwise 👍
Bought one of these on your recommendation as my first gun. Really enjoying learning how to paint. Thanks!
So glad you talked me into purchasing this gun a couple years ago. I’ve only used it a few times but the quality of my work comes out amazing! Feel like a pro after I’m done. That also has to do with watching your videos and your recommended settings of course. I honestly feel like your the best painter on TH-cam! 😉✊🏻🙏🏻 Thanks again!
I appreciate your post, I am fixing to pull the trigger on the FLG5 Also.

Its heartbreaking to see your homeland burning up. Prayers and thoughts for all of you, man. The whole world is going crazy these days, but your videos actually help keep my kids distracted from everything going on, so thank you as well bro. I hope those fires are brought under control and there is no further loss of life, wildlife included. Much love
Thanks mate, luckily for me the fires are on the other side of the country but my dad is fighting them in one of the worst hit places, Mallacoota.
Bought myself one of these 6months ago off your recommendation and I'm really pleased with the finishes I've been achieving spraying in my garage as a hobby not as a professional I've only ever used the cheapest spray guns Chinese knock offs and since I've switched to this I've found I'm not needing to colour sand and buff to get a half decent finish actually managed to get a good enough finish to leave them straight from the gun. Highly recommended 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Man , sincerely you really get me goin to do my best in my painting jobs. Thank you so much for taking the time in this channel
A true Master at work , a joy to watch👍🇬🇧
I bought this spraygun a month ago, because of your first top 10 video. It had a good price compared to other guns. It costed 144 british pounds, transportation cost included.
To be honest i got really happy when this video popped ud after 5 years, and you said you think the FLG5 is still relevant 😁.
Cheers Gunman!
I bough this gun from Spray gun direct after watching this a couple months back, I'm now watching it again so I can set it up correctly. Great work
Painted my truck today, and you’re right, no matter how hard I try, there’s gonna be enough trash, I will have to flat and buff. But after watching a lot of your videos, my paint work has really gotten better. Now I need a positive pressure booth. Pretty damn flat/slick for this old man.
Just recently started watching. Always wanted to learn to paint cars. Thanks. I will paint some sh..!
Can’t go wrong with FLG 5. Bland looking gun with amazing results.
Been following you for years mate. Finally pulled the trigger on an flg-5 and it arrived today. Hanging to get stuck into it. Appreciate the videos dude keep them coming. I have no idea how you smash that clear on like you do! Incredible
thanks for the pressure setting info gunny. I just bought one of these from sprayguns direct on your recommendation. I got the 1.4 and also bought the 1.8 needle and cap cost around $280 aussie with postage for anyone interested and delivered in 4 days.
No probs mate, I remember you mentioning that a couple of weeks ago. Have you used it yet?
@@TheGunmanChannel no i have all my prep work done but im doing the job at home and its been too windy here.
Sorry just wondering why you would need a 1.8 ?? Or a 1.4 ... just be careful spraying since it’s a bigger tip.. up ur speed and pressure so it doesn’t spit chunks of material on you and get a run
@@alaasaleh7181 i got the 1.8 as an extra to use for primer as it is my only gun
Where did you get the other tips? I'm in need for a 1.4 and 1.3 for the flg 5
I'm a DIY and as always you give us the info that helps get the job done well. Thanks Gunny!!
I bought one 2 years ago upon your recommendation. Love it! Great all around gun.
Thankyou gunman I have bought several paint guns on your recommendations and im getting pro level finishes and thankyou for adding your gun settings that is a great help,
Wow, you’ve convinced me - I’m going to purchase the FLG for my first foray into painting. Thanks for doing what you do and posting these awesome videos!
I bought this gun from the UK and had it shipped to the USA based on your recommendation. Im a DIY'r and its a great gun. Thanks for putting out this kind of information!
I bought a FLG5 a month ago for when I paint a restoration I'm doing in my shed, I chose it from watching your reviews and painting videos. I hope I get half as good a finnish as you show in this video.
Thanks for the time, effort, advice and content you put into your videos.
Glad they helped.
I just went out and ordered one of these, thanks to your review and talk on HVLP as well which i nearly bought. So thank you so much..
the more i watch the more i learn. thanks for your vids. just a DIY er but now need to find me a new gun. i'll be taking your advice.
I'm a pro technician and want to learn to paint I just ordered the flg-5 with 1.4m cap , and 1.8 cap and needle ... I hope to get half as good as resukts as you thank you gunman !
Spraygun direct should give you some compensation lol or at least a discount code !!!
Such a good-egg..
Honest, funny & down-to-earth!
Best spray painting channel on TH-cam! Well done. 👌👊
When Gunman recommended a Devilbiss gun to viewers a few years ago i bought it off Ebay, I made leaps and bounds in a short period of time and using it made me feel somewhat professional, my spray jobs turned out very nice and made spraying easy, but then you soon realize a specialized spray booth would make a big difference for highest quality paint finish.
This video made me decide to buy the FLG5! For an occasional user it is top class!
Very good work! Happy New Year from Greece !!!
I struggled for decades with the wrong hvlp spray guns, smaller air compressors, and improper technique. Lots of wet sanding and buffing. Enter the Gunman, Devilbiss GPI and Iwata Bellaria . Jaw dropping results ! 👍😍
FLG5 Is my go to gun. Does very thing I need at work and at home. A great all rounder
Bought 2 of these guns from spraygunsdirect based on your reviews and I love it👍🏻 perfect for the diyer.
Have one..its a awesome gun for spraying every thing..the gunman recomanded it and i bought one..3 years later sprays awesome..
The Gunman This is going to be the gun for me then mate...this gun will be the gun that I spray my van with.
Thanks mate
Best bang for your buck this one mate
Gunny, you are a legend my friend. This video is the proof in the pudding! Keep up the great work! Happy New year to you! (Ps, coukd you do a video at some point spraying a good clear with a TE10 prolite setup?!?) 👌👍👍🥳🍻
from FLG5 to GTI PRO TE10 / TE20 / T110 , etc you can get flat finish by application. full "fire" , close to the panel and quality clear :)
Higher pressure than you would ever imagine 30+ psi,
I love my T100 for a flat finish
Really nice job well done clearcoat shines like a mirror and black paint is like piano black thumbs up !
Master Gunny at it again
Happy New Year Gunman. I bought this gun on your recommendation a few years ago and am very happy with it.
Keep up the good work and excellent presentations.
This gun is amazing. I saw that they have it with 1.3 tip on the market now. I would love to have it.
These are priced really low on Ebay from England right now. Think I'm going to order one this week. Perfect air consumption for my 60 gallon 2 stage. Can't wait to give it a try👍👍👍
I do the odd bit of DIY spraying. Got this gun on your recommendation about a year ago and have had great results. Thank you
I swear I smelt that clear while watching the video. Love it gunny keep it up. Just did a respray on my friends door as his truck got shot up and had bullet holes. Came out great. Maybe I'll make another slide show of it for you to check out I'll let u know. Happy new year!
Started watching your vids years ago and i bought an flg5 and two pro lites for my home spray booth they are still going strong and making me money I'm actually turning work away because i can't keep up with everything people want done im just one guy at home lol
Another great video. Your banter makes the videos far more entertaining. Keep it up!
I'm working on a project atm and it's a nightmare but after laying on the primer it's not as bad now from the body work I did I could have done it a bit better but the person I'm doing it for is helping and you know it's not perfect but it will look nice when I'm finished. Thanks 2 your inspiration bro
No worries, thanks for watching.
@@TheGunmanChannel I always do my friend
That is exactly what you can expect for finishes from the FLG5!
That black was beautiful. Can't wait for the updated favorites video.
flg 5 overperforms -price versus result keep tellin' it like it i gunnie... super vid
So love my FLG5, I use it for acrylic base and clearcoat, still comes out like glass once polished, yes, I'm a D.I.Y. guy!
Lol the point is to come out like glass before polish!
@@codysett1 Not for acrylic paint.
Like it so much!!! Already come from job where I'd been working with Flg5 and here it is a new video about FLG, Thanks Gunny !!!
Hey man. Just wanted to check if you were doing okay. Was worried after watching the news about all those fires
Hi St1ka, I'm doing well thanks man. I live in Perth which is actually on the other side of the country as the really bad fires, so we're fine, but my family all live over there, they're all ok but dealing with the smoke. My dad who's 65 is a firefighter and he got flown into the West Victorian fires by the navy to fight them head on. I hope he's alright myself 🙏
On your recommendation I bought the FLG5 a few days ago, it should arrive tomorrow.
With DHL shipping from the UK it was only $158 USD.
Wow, that was a ton of clear you sprayed on the bumper.
Yep gunny I got the 1.3 and kicks ass havnt used the w400 since I flg5 the shop no probs with the silvers and the deltron ceramic clear through this gun is sweet like glass cheers for the video bro
I bought two of these when they first hit the uk market on your recommendation from sprayguns direct. Still got them and both still working perfectly. Just wish I lived in Australia with your ambient temperature. Nice one Gunny.
love you man, changed my life with ur tips
Many thanks for the very interesting video, dreaming of warmer weather here in the UK to start spraying again, cant wait to compare my GTI pro lite with my flg5 at 35 psi spraying clearcoat. I can honestly say that your videos inspired me and informed me to try some serious spraying and now I even surprise myself.
I have a glass addiction from watching your vids mate :)
Hey gunny, I got an FLG 5 for christmas, straight off sprayguns direct, on your recommendation, its my first quality gun, only had chinese knock off's before, not used it yet but the quality is awesome, I am well pleased with it, thanks alot for the information. PS I got the A.N.I air regulator as well !
I painted some fenders and set my $40 gun to 30psi for both base and clear. Didn’t really know what to set it at. And ur right, I would be disappointed if I didn’t need to wet sand. I like it but I’m pretty sure I’ll eventually get sick of wet sanding clear. I’m guessing when you don’t have to wet sand after spraying anymore that means you’ve arrived
That looks awesome buddy, you have just sold me that gun,
Legend Gunnie! Love these honest reviews! Would happily spend 200 on a nice gun. Suzuki mighty boy in the making but would not spend 1k on a gun.... I'm just a sparkie
I’m buying this gun because of you. You should get a commission for all the guns you have sold for them.
Love the channel mate.... keep it rolling.... cheers....J
Nice video!
I bought the flg5 2 years ago after i saw your recomendation..i am using it only as a primer gun. But after this video i will put the 1.4 setup on and will try to spray some clear with it.
Thanks man!
Gunman...I just love watching you paint and listen to you ramble on. Do you have any vids of you painting a 50s or 60s car or truck with lacquer?
Freaking amazing.I love when u use the flg5... Thanks for the video
I love my FLG5, fantastic job again there Gunman.
Happy New Year........ Master gunman......could you please maybe some day to a review on harbor freights black Widow hte
Great video.
I have that gun and it is lovely to see that you like it
Hello gun man happy new year I am so glad you did a review on this FLG5 as I brought this gun 24 months ago now this video gave me some confident about my FLG5 especially on the air pressure settings can you tell me how money turns out if you got the turns all the way in for fluid settings and this is for base and clear this would be really appreciated. Also Thanking you for talking down to earth that's what I like about you and keep up the the great work so Thanking you for all your videos
I like all your videos but the FLG5 one's are my favorites. Had you just shown the completed hood and did a survey asking what gun you did it with, I bet the majority would have guessed the DV1 or your Prolite. Beautiful work and Happy New year Sir!!!
Ive been using UV resin to fix teeth for years... very handy being able to finely control cure rates so I'm glad it made its way into your field :P
Great video, ... I just ordered one of these guns, been spraying with my Iwata with Quartz Liquid Glass but I am having to use a lot of PSI to get a nice flat coat. Seen this review and I've decided to bite the bullet and go for this. Managed to get one for £102.00 delivered so I couldn't resist it ;-)
I have great respect for you end i have a lot recognition that ruthlessly you tell truth.
Shit came out hella CRISPYYY
I can totally agree to your comment about design and how its advertised. I am using a Satajet b thats older than me and it works just fine for me although its not the prettiest looking spraygun with newest limited edition design on it. But its fine because I got it pretty much for free
Yessss the music is back!!
Great news for us, normies :) I'm gonna look into that gun as it is really affordable where I live. I do some spray painting from time to time on family cars/motorcycles and I could use some good quality gun. Thanks man!
Happy new year 🎆🎈🎊 gunman I like how you put on the second on the hood very wet and you hand 🖐 was moving so slow bro that gun working very well when clearing thank you 🙏 so much brother all the best for 2020 bless up and big up 👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💯💯
I bought this gun based on your recommendation and the tekna prolite, I'm still trying to figure out how to spray that one properly
there is a 2.0mm fluid tip/needle available for FLG 5 in addition to 1.4mm 1.8mm
Looks 200% perfect
Really enjoying the videos, thanks Gunman!
Decided to buy the FLG5 but unsure which tip would be best for my usage?
I spray solvent based paints, bare metal resprays vs touchups.
So etch primer, primer, top coat + clear. Also spraying enamel.
Is 1.4 or 1.3 tip the best all rounder for this?
I have a problem, i have to paint my vw t3 bus with base and clearcote and i will do this in my big Garage. I have a airfiltrationsystem with 1500m³/h and a air compressor with 450l output power
Is it better to buy a flg 5 with more output an bigger fan or do you think it is better to buy the AZ3 HTE2 and possibly I have less problems with spray mist or other things?
So do you think the FLG5 is a good gun for garage painting?
Seems like a great gun Gunny. Might have to grab one. Nice work as usual. 👍🏻 Hope your not being affected by the fires I'm hearing about over there. Cheers
dude I love you'r videos!!! you explain everything so clear, good work and good job
Hi bud, thx for the vid again! Been spraying with an FLG5 for a bit now. Are you using full fan and liquid @35psi here? I'm gaving issues with mine as i have to move the gun a lot slower to get a proper layer. If i move anyway near as fast as you i'm getting a near matte layer haha! How much reducer thinner do you regularly use? Cheers!
Hi Gunman, been using the FLG5 for clear coat, been great on flat panels like Lambretta side panels laid flat. just done a fuel tank for a mates Honda the finish was almost glass with a couple on nibs, down side was I had some runs on the vertical sides. The raised stickers seem to be the place that set the runs off. Sprayed at 30psi, 1 turn in from full fan. didn't do a tack coat, was that a mistake? Also it was a warm day. Would you recommend a mini gun for these smaller items? Your videos are the best. Cheers.
That's a mirror friend... Top job! Happy new year from Greece!
Great video Gunman! What happened with your SATA 5500? Can you do a clearcoat video with it, going for a perfectly smooth finish rather than orange peel? Settings and so on? Thank you
Nice video with great tips as usual,keep up gunman you are the best
Love to see a review of the DeVilbiss Plus Gravity Gun GFG-670
You ever used UV curing clear? It's expensive AF, 130 euros for a liter, but I like the idea of not having to need mixing stuff.
This guy never answer a question
I bought one of these based on your review ! Thank you it’s amazing ! Is there a better air cap I could use ?
Hey sir,,,,what was the fan and fluid settings on this ? Thanks !!! You are truly the Gunman !
Full fan, full fluid 👊🤩👊
really love the job you've done on this. What sort of overlap are you aiming for when doing the clear coat? It looks like you're doing 50 to 75?% a bit hard to properly see
Great video, I’m going to have a crack at my first spray job and ordered 2 of these ( both sizes), it was $470 delivered
is the flg5 a full-size gun or on the smaller side? also I hear its a good gun for DIYers as it doesn't require as much working pressure as the big guns....is that true?
You mentioned you've got a nice fan on it, but how many twists for the paint flow?
Real talk from the gun man! Paint gun brand fanboys always jump on the bandwagon unless you're saying something cheap can do as good or better then it's butt hurt city probably because they don't want to feel like they're getting screwed by paying close to a grand for their toy. All because they bought the hype and feel like their skills are great but their toy "tool" was the failure point. Nice work gunny!!
