HVLP for the Home User
I do work on quitars as a hobby. I've looked for a way to spray lacquer without the blushing and other problems that come with compressed air sprayers (oil, dirt etc). Even a decent dryer system for a comressed air setup was about the same price as this system. With this I get warm clean air and after figuring out how to adjust the gun to my liking, the finish is a professional as any I've seen! I don't think I would consider it a "production" system. Especially if you are trying to lay down thick coats to save time. I had to thin my lacquer considerably and lay down very thin coats to get it right. (But then I'm using water based lacquer)...

Very happy customer
Overall I'm very pleased with the Fujispray. I would have given it 4.5 stars if that option was available. I'm a nonprofessional DIYer. I bought the Super HVLP with the standard #3 nozzle. I upgraded to the #4 nozzle because I'm spraying latex paint primarily. So far I've used it on mouldings, drawer fronts, closet doors, a large cabinet, and wainscoting panels. Only a few gripes which I suspect happen with other brands too. The seal between the cup and lid isn't tight enough. Some paint leaked through the top and dripped down the side of the cup. This only happened when I was tilting the gun close to horizontal with a full load of paint in the cup. This can ruin your finish if it drips onto your workpiece like it did to me. You can quickly wipe it off but you end up with streaks. Also the paint readily dries on the spray tip/nozzle assembly. Even while continuously spraying with no breaks the paint built up enough to distort the spray pattern or clog the spray tip. The partially dried paint would also sometimes break free and land on your workpiece. I think this is because the air from the turbine is pretty hot so the paint dries real fast even as it is being sprayed. I suspect this is a problem with all HVLP sprayers not just Fujispray. I also didn't like the bleeder gun. The blast of air is pretty potent. It kept on blowing light pieces of trim off my stands. It occasionally blew off the paper (which was taped down) that I covered the surrounding areas with. However I don't consider this a knock against Fujispray. From my review it looks like a bleeder gun is the industry standard anyways. Other than that I think its a great product for the price. You have to practice a lot and experiment with the right amount of thinning and additives you mix with the paint but eventually you do get a nice smooth finish. It's simple to set up and operate. Cleaning is easy. Customer service is outstanding. Prompt/helpful replies to all questions/orders. They even answered questions on weekends. I also ordered the diaphram attachment. It's this plastic bowl like object that goes right under the lid. It's supposed to prevent paint from going up the inlet air hose. It does work well.

fuji paint sprayer
I wish I would have bought this years ago. I refinish old furnure as a hobby and have always been unhappy with my final coatings, Urethane primarily. This has solved that problem.
The unit worked great right out of the box. After reading the easy to understand manual, you can assemble the parts and be painting in minutes. This unit works great and is very easy to use. The controls are all, conveniantly, at the spray gun.
I highly recommend the fuji and am glad I didn't buy a lesser model. If you spray paint a lot I would buy the quieter fuji, although it is quite a bit more money.

many uses for the sprayer
I painted a camper shell, a mercedes, an antique truck,and a metal-sided house with the sprayer. this is the next best thing to an electrostatic sprayer costing thousands. Takes the place of a large compressor and has very little overspray. this is the best outfit I have ever used. going to paint a 2-story house this summer with it. A great tool.
