Does the Spray gun work with with the bottles or do you have to have a compressor?

You have to have a compressor. the cans only hold the product. You don't need a lot of pressure.

Need to have a compressor, I've bought more... Once you start you don't want to stop awesome product!

You will need a compressor with a regulator, keep pressure between 40 and 90 psi. The lower the psi the more texture you will have.

That all depends on the spray gun your using. This compressor puts out 3.8 cfm at 40 psi, guns today can require 3 times that amount of cfm. HVLP guns require higher volumes of air. Older style siphon feed guns, especially a small touch up gun, may be able to be used depending on the tip and air cap configuration. A small airbrush you could use easily. This compressor builds air quickly at its stated rating, but the storage capacity is just not adequate for paint spraying. Hope that helps.

Hello Mazin, a 3 gallon compressor is pretty small. The three jet sprayer would be the correct choice because you can use it with one two or three jets to match yoru comprssor. My best guess is you will want more air. Here is a customer that has connected a couple small compressors together that may give you some ideas: http://www.mortarsprayer.com/winery-foundation-spraying/Please let me know if I can help with more question.Best regards,Nolan Scheid

It's great for cabinets. It doesn't need a compressor. You need a finer tip though

I run it with a regular compressor. But you might want a holding tank if you are going to use it alot. Its pretty taxing on the smaller compressors.

It's all about CFM (cubic feet a minute) not pressure, this spray gun requires quite a lot of CFM and if your compressor cannot supply enough of it than you will have to wait while the compressor can fill your very small tank

This gun is really nice for the price if you have the compressor power to run it.

This spray gun requires an HVLP spray unit not an air compressor. HVLP means high volume low pressure which reduces overspray and less material consumption. You can buy a conventional spray gun which does use an air compressor

Yes you will need a compressor. The unit uses a lot of air so you will need one that can keep up with it without having to wait long periods in between bursts.

Yes it does spray well from a spray bottle. I use one with measurement markings for easier mixing.

I have one of those Porter Cable compressors I got for a brad nailer, and the Critter works fine with it. You won't need anything like 90 PSI, either. If you use too much pressure, the spray will be very dry and dusty.

I don't believe so - I purchased only for the purpose of nailing. You might be able to purchase a spray gun accessories that could be connected to the air compressor hose but I wouldn't know anything about that.

you need a compressor with a minimum of a 5 gallon storage tank on it. Its not the pressure but the volume you need.

Update on this gun. Have been spraying guitar Sunbursts now for a week. This gun is everything , everyone here says it is. the 1.6 HP 33 gal compressor works just fine. I bought 4 of these guns.

Dean, I would contact DeVilbiss for a better answer than I could provide you. Our shop had a huge compressor that ran everything. I'm thinking that if you didn't do a lot of spraying a 3 or 4 HP would work especially if you use any other pneumatic tools.

Mine did not come with a spray gun of any kind. Although the photo shows the compressor with a spray gun, there is not one included. It does seem a bit deceptive, but you will not find a spray gun in the description.

Yes, without a compressor this would be just an expensive can. A compressor provides the air pressure to make this a "pressure feed spray gun".Alan
