I am very pleased with the spray gun, have used it on a number projects and it works very well.
After reading some reviews I took a chance on the PSH2. My use of finish appears much lower than the suction feed guns I have used for years with little over spray.
One thing I was impressed with was its ability to spray minwax polyshades which I have done in the past with a suction feed gun, but found them to clog. I also like the fact that this gun is small in size and easily tilted to get into tighter areas.
I recently purchased the Porter Cable PSH2 spray gun primarily because my Makita Mac 2400 compressor only delivers 4.2 CFM. Granted I was not spraying a large cabinet but smaller projects.
I would also recommend the 1.2 mm tip size to spray finish as the gun comes with a smaller tip. Most of the the other guns I looked at needed 6.0 or more CFM to keep the compressor from running continually.
I was concerned with the small cup size anticipating having to fill it up often but because the gun sprays at a low pressure ( I have been using 35 PSI) I was pleasantly surprised at the small amount of polyurethane it used.
tip. One thing I'd like to try is there is a.022 in. It's easy to clean.
It sprays a good pattern and is easy to clean. I should mention that I've only used the gun with acrylics and Alklyd paints for woodworking projects. I bought this gun for my son as a present and now I love to use it.
I don't have an opinion on it's use for an automotive quality finish.Additional Comment: We've used the gun of and on now for six months and still like it. I think this tip would be useful for thinned latex paints. Well constructed it's well worth the money.
I guess I should buy one for myself and retire my old Binks 100a.
furthermore, it is well-made, easily adjusted and cleaned. this is an excellent spray gun for my wood turned pieces.much better than a larger spray gun for this type of work. it is easy to build very good layers of lacquer on curved and irregular surfaces.
I use it with polyurethanes and cleanup up with mineral spirits by rinsing the cup and spraying the spirits through the unit into a rag which I then use to wipe off any overspray on the metal and the outside of cup. This sprayer works great and works well with my small pancake compressor. It is easy to clean.
