Product Information
Full details
This Draper HVLP spray gun is designed for general purpose spraying, ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professionals working with various paint types, including water-based formulations. Its key benefit is the HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) technology, which ensures efficient paint transfer and reduces overspray, leading to a smoother finish and less wasted material. A potential caveat is the need for a suitable air compressor to achieve the optimal operating pressure.

Paint splattering or sputtering
The fluid needle or nozzle may be clogged. Clean the tip thoroughly. Ensure the paint is adequately thinned and that the fluid adjustment is set correctly.
Low fluid output
Check for blockages in the nozzle or fluid feed tube. Ensure the fluid adjustment knob is turned sufficiently to allow adequate paint flow. Verify the air pressure is adequate.
Gun leaking air
Inspect the air cap and seals for damage. Tighten connections securely. If leaks persist, consider replacing worn seals or parts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Connect the spray gun to an air compressor using a 1/4" BSP air inlet. Ensure the compressor is set to maintain an operating air pressure of 43psi (3 Bar). Fill the 600ml gravity feed cup with your chosen paint, ensuring it is properly thinned according to the paint manufacturer's recommendations. Adjust the fan pattern and fluid flow controls as needed before application.
Compatibility: This spray gun is compatible with all paint types, including water-based and solvent-based paints. It requires an air compressor capable of delivering approximately 14.5cfm (400 l/min) at the specified operating pressure.
Care: After each use, thoroughly clean the spray gun to prevent paint from drying and clogging the nozzle and needle. Disassemble the fluid nozzle, needle, and air cap. Use the provided cleaning brush and a suitable solvent or water (depending on the paint type) to clean all parts. Reassemble once dry. Store in a clean, dry environment. Spare nozzle, needle, and cap sets are available separately.
