* Excellent Gun - Sprays latex with ease ...
We are redoing our kitchen on the cheap, and decided to repaint our cabinets. After applying TSP and liquid sandpaper to the doors, we put on the water based primer using the 2.2mm Nozzle. Went on very smooth, and the gun has very little overspray. After primer, put on 3 coats of Behr latex paint (also using the 2.2mm nozzle). I didn't even need to thin the paint. It went on so well, I couldn't believe I hadn't found this earlier in life. Make sure to wear a chemical mask for painting purposes. We painted everything in our garage, and used drop cloths where we were painting.
To address some main points:
1) I went straight to using the 2.2mm nozzle as other reviewers suggested. I did not have to thin any of my latex paint. If you live in New England (like I do), keep your paint indoors until ready to use, so it doesn't get cold and thicken up. I used my pancake compressor for the coat of primer on 20 cabinet doors and a few drawers. It takes a long time doing it this way, b/c the compressor is only 6 gallons, and has to run constantly. If you just have a few pieces to spray, you will be fine. But I would recommend using a larger compressor for big jobs.
2) This was my 1st time using a HVLP gun, so I didn't know how to properly clean it (wear glasses/gloves, as paint thinner burns). What I did was this. After you finish spraying, and remove the plastic cup's screw top, then unscrew the whole cup from the gun. Dispose of any paint left in the cup. Be sure to clean the cup's top, and remove the air valve at the top and clean paint from it too. Otherwise, if the air valve gets clogged, it will not let out much, if any paint (happened to me). When you are cleaning the cup, clean the threads too by using some q-tips or a rolled up paper towel.
3) Fill up a disposable plastic container half way with a cleaner (I used paint thinner). Disassemble the front sprayer, and then the nozzle behind it. Clean as much paint off of these with paper towels and q-tips, then place them in the paint thinner and scrub with an old toothbrush, or the pipe cleaner that came with the gun. Now that those are clean, remove them from the paint thinner, and move onto the gun.
4) Now, you should just have the needle exposed on the gun. Set the gun to around 50psi of pressure at the control valve, and spray the excess paint into paper towels. Disconnect the gun from the compressor hose. Remove the needle by unscrewing the back, being careful not to loose the spring. Simply take out the needle, and clean it along with the inside of the gun, in paint thinner. I found the hardest part to be cleaning the paint in the very back of the brass chamber. Use a combination of the pipe cleaner, toothbrush and some q-tips to get it clean.
5) Now that its all clean, reassemble so that it is ready for the next use. Cleanup takes about 20 minutes once you get used to it. The gun is great, and the finish it put out looks like it came from a factory. I did roller my cabinet bases, as I didn't feel like masking off my whole kitchen to spray the bases.... Hope this summary helps those of you on the fence about this HVLP gun.

GREAT VALUE - VERY IMPRESSED WITH PRODUCT!
Used this spray gun to first apply latex primer and then sprayed on alklyd enamel paint for my trim in the home. Went on flawlessly with the 2.2mm add-on nozzle kit. Cleaned up really well with mineral spirits. I figured out how to use it pretty quickly. The recommended 45 psi was a little weak so I increased it to around 60 psi. I really love this gun!!

This is the pup for the job
I bought this spray gun and used it for about a year and it worked great
I didn't clean the gun good after a few spray runs and I had a lot of water in my air compressor, these two things made my spraying a real hell. I bought another type of gun for spraying and I found I didn't have the control I wanted. I ordered another Porter-Cable. I couldn't be any more happy, I also got a new Porter-Cable air compressor and with the two, it's great. This is the right ticket for anyone who wants a sprayer that you have great control over the spray. This Pup will work great for you, just take a little time to learn how you want your spray on some card broad. Go Porter-Cable!!!

* Perfect ...
This is an excellent gun. Very adjustable in terms of air flow, fluid feed and spray distribution. Very easy to use, and spray on finishes come out excellent.
Very easy to clean.
Worth every penny. You will find some inexpensive HVLP guns that do not spray as well and are much harder to clean.
