I know these guns are disco, but I have pick up two of them since I have heard a lot of positive comments on how well they work with little air. Yes they are a little slow, but compared to my finish line III these spray like a million dollar gun to me.:D No cloud of paint in the air, and laided down two coats of epoxy like glass. Found both of mine on ebay, brand new with manual. Guys with LV air problems check these out if you can find one, they work great! Happy Holidays, Steve

Great gun.
I sprayed my Morris - which is a small car - and my 80 gallon 2 stage compressor cycled ONCE per coat for the whole car.
Very economical on air, and a nice finish.
Sharpe has gone to hell with the acquisition by Graco - now run by snot nosed 19 year old marketing weenies I guess.

they may have gone the way of "spinning mirrored balls" hanging above the dance floor, but it's the first gun I owned and still continue to use.

Others may argue this point but I find for the then price/performance ratio it was hard to beat. Esp for a novice (which I am incidentally) who isn't painting full time and doesn't have a spec rated booth.
