I bought this HVLP sprayer some five years ago for painting my Ford 901. I sprayed the base primer, the primer surfacer, and the red and the gray top coats. I used it for some little thing since then, I don't remember what it was. Immediately after each use I would give it a good rinse and spray thinner through it. I am now working on an old car. I have been aware of the cleaning tanks that some people used for sprayers but didn't see the need. Squeeze the trigger and paint and air come out. Not rocket science. I sprayed the epoxy primer on the car, and that went well, but immediately after, I started on the polyester high build. It is very thick. Too thick for my 1.7 tip. I finally thinned it and after maybe eight coats called it good. Next I went to the base top coat on the interior of the car. This will be covered by carpet or upholstery. This paint soon started to plug. I had to keep increasing the pressure to get it to spray. I finished up this small area of base, rinsed the sprayer and then half filled it with black Rustoleum with a touch of hardener for the front suspension and the outside edge of the frame which I had prepped. After this marathon of paint spraying I got to thinking maybe I should try dissassembling the sprayer and see if I could clean it. Well, next morning I took it all apart and found a lot of dried paint in it. I soaked the parts in paint stripper, and found that all of the parts that came out were shiny chrome, surprise!. Next day I sprayed clear over the base that I had sprayed the day before, and found that significantly more paint came out. I plan to strip it down after every use now.
