Sharpe 1.5 mm Tip RAZOR HVLP for Metallic Spray Gun (289216)

The Sharpe 1.5 mm Tip RAZOR HVLP for Metallic Spray Gun (289216) is a top-tier tool for professional painters and hobbyists alike who demand precision and quality in their work. Engineered with High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP) technology, this spray gun is specifically designed to handle metallic paints, base coats, and clear coats with exceptional performance. Its superior atomization and smooth, even spray pattern ensure a flawless, mirror-like finish, making it a favorite for automotive refinishing and other high-stakes projects.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Flawless Finishes: The 1.5mm tip and specialized metallic air cap provide superior atomization, creating a fine, uniform spray pattern that's essential for achieving a professional, streak-free finish with metallic paints.
• Versatility and Compatibility: The 100% stainless steel fluid passages, needle, and nozzle make this gun fully compatible with a wide range of coatings, including traditional solvent-based paints and modern waterborne materials.
• Ergonomic and Comfortable Design: The lightweight body (1.3 lb without the cup) and ergonomic handle reduce user fatigue, allowing for comfortable and controlled use during long painting sessions.
• Efficient Performance: HVLP technology ensures a high transfer efficiency, meaning more paint lands on the surface and less is wasted as overspray. This saves on material costs and minimizes cleanup.
• Easy Maintenance: The nickel-plated finish on the gun body and the polished aluminum gravity cup make cleaning quick and simple, ensuring the tool remains in excellent condition for years of reliable use.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Part Number: 289216
• Technology: High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP)
• Tip Size: 1.5 mm
• Max. Air Inlet Pressure: 29 psi (0.2 MPa, 2.0 bar)
• Air Consumption: 14.4 CFM at 29 psi
• Pattern Size: 14 in
• Fluid Passages: 100% Stainless Steel
• Cup Type: Gravity-feed, 23 oz polished aluminum

HOW TO USE:

• Preparation: Before first use, thoroughly clean the gun to remove any factory residue. Attach the polished aluminum gravity cup to the gun body.
• Mixing and Filling: Prepare your chosen paint, ensuring it is properly mixed and strained according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fill the gravity cup with the prepared paint.
• Setup and Adjustment: Connect the gun to an air compressor and adjust the air pressure to a maximum of 29 psi. Use the air pressure and fluid control knobs on the gun to fine-tune the spray pattern and material flow. Test the spray on a piece of scrap material to ensure the pattern is consistent and free of drips or spatter.
• Application: Hold the gun perpendicular to the surface at a consistent distance, typically 6-8 inches. Begin spraying just before the edge of the surface, moving at a steady pace to apply an even coat. Overlap each pass by about 50% to avoid streaking.
• Cleanup: Immediately after use, empty any remaining paint from the cup. Disassemble the gun and use the appropriate solvent or water-based cleaner to thoroughly clean the fluid passages, air cap, and nozzle. A brush and cleaning kit can be helpful for reaching all parts.
