Question 1

will this gun work with a portable air compressor at 4cfm 90psi?

Accepted Answer

I think it'll be alright. my 26gal is rated at 5.8scfm at 90psi and it supports this gun just fine. You will not find a better gun in this price range. It is worth easily 2-3 times what it's selling for.

Question 2

Is the spray gun  3.0-4.0 cfm or is it what  the instructions says it needs 15cfm before i purchase it thanks

Accepted Answer

It uses 15cfm of air.  But man if you have a shop Compressor and get the gun set right
 It paints nearly as well as my devilbiss gti pro which uses 16cfm of air also.  I would love to get the 1.8 version one for primer. Give it 25 to 29 psi I stay around 2 bar. If you wanna lower air consumption use smallest fan as possible to get the desired finish and project time. A great gun for a smaller compressor is the mp400 Cartman sells I'm about to buy another.  It's a really great gun as well. Most of the parts will interchange with the 400 series and its marked right at 4 to 7 cfm. I can use it with a 1.8hp 26 gallon kobalt air compressor.  With minimal recover time.  Has a nice fan and droplet size. But if you have a shop compressor that can put out 12 15cfm at least get both but this one can lay a flat mirror shine.  I've done two jobs and ask people at work which gun did what. This gun will spray just like a gti pro.  I bought this gun when Cartman first came on amazon. It was like 25 back then and I'm not surprised in the least it's 41 now. I'm getting another for back up. For any professional spray painters, serious DIY guy with a shop compressor. If you have a home portable compressor you will be taking lots of breaks if you paint large projects. I'm using it on 2 stage 80 gallon 175psi 27.5cfm at 175 pai compressor.  It runs the mechanic shop,  welding shop and my paint booth. And 99 percent of the time I'm the only one using it.  And it runs it hard it'll keep 2 bar mostly until shop uses a impact or something. It'll be like 80 to 100 pai when I release the trigger.  Regulator at the wall drops to 45psi under full air. So Ya hope that helps people it's a air monster but a beast of a gun. Any serious apprentice or DIY needs this gun and the mp400. Must haves.  The mp400 is great for home 1.5-2.5 compressors.  Small fan and wind fluid in some it'll take longer but use less air and get proper atomization

Question 3

Your manual states air consumption at "about 15 cfm." Why does the description say  3-4 cfm?

Accepted Answer

It definitely does not require 15scfm. My compressor is rated at 5.8@90psi and will keep up with this gun all day long
