Iwata LPH300-134LV 1.3mm Spray Gun w/ 700mL Cup (3957)

The Iwata LPH300-134LV 1.3mm Spray Gun w/ 700mL Cup (3957) is a high-performance, compact High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP) spray gun engineered for a variety of precise painting applications. This gravity-fed model combines the benefits of a full-sized spray gun with a user-friendly, lightweight design, making it a preferred tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike. At its core is Iwata's patented LV (Low Volume) technology, which ensures exceptional atomization while significantly minimizing overspray. This innovative approach not only leads to superior finish quality, characterized by a smooth, consistent 8.5-inch pattern, but also promotes substantial material savings and a more environmentally responsible painting process. Whether you are applying base coats in automotive repair, intricate finishes on woodwork, or protective layers on metal, the LPH300-134LV delivers consistent, high-transfer efficiency results. Its durable construction, including stainless-steel components, ensures reliability and compatibility with a wide range of coatings.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• LV Technology for Superior Atomization: Utilizes Iwata's patented Low Volume technology to produce a very fine, consistent spray, significantly reducing "orange peel" and ensuring a smooth finish.
• Reduced Overspray and Material Savings: High transfer efficiency means more paint reaches the surface and less is wasted into the air, leading to lower material consumption and a cleaner work environment.
• Compact Size with Full-Size Performance: Offers the precision and quality of larger Iwata 400 series models in a lighter, more maneuverable form factor, reducing user fatigue during extended use.
• Versatile Application Capability: Ideal for applying a wide range of materials, including base coats (solvent and waterborne), primers, sealers, clear coats, wood stains, lacquers, and various metal coatings.
• Precise 8.5-Inch Spray Pattern: Delivers a consistent, flat, and smooth fan pattern with a tight edge, making it excellent for achieving uniform coverage in various applications.
• Center Post Gravity Feed System: Ensures consistent fluid flow and simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

HOW TO USE:

1. Preparation: Ensure your compressed air system is clean and dry. Connect the air hose to the spray gun's air inlet. Fill the 700mL aluminum cup with your prepared coating material, ensuring it is properly strained and mixed according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
2. Adjust Air Pressure: While the spray gun is operating (trigger pulled), adjust your air compressor's regulator to the recommended operating pressure for HVLP guns, generally around 14-16 PSI. Aim for consistent air flow at the air cap.
3. Adjust Fluid and Fan Controls: Turn the fluid control knob (at the rear of the gun) to set the material flow rate. Adjust the fan pattern control knob (at the side of the gun) to achieve your desired spray pattern width and shape. Test the pattern on a scrap piece of material.
4. Application: Hold the spray gun perpendicular to the surface, maintaining a consistent distance (typically 6-8 inches) for optimal atomization. Move the gun parallel to the surface in smooth, overlapping passes. Release the trigger at the end of each pass.
5. Cleaning: After each use, thoroughly clean the spray gun. Empty any remaining material from the cup. Disassemble the air cap and nozzle components. Use appropriate cleaning solvents to flush the gun's fluid passages and clean all removable parts. Rinse with clean solvent and allow to dry.

BENEFITS OF USING IWATA LPH300-134LV 1.3MM SPRAY GUN W/ 700ML CUP (3957):
