a house paint sprayer is totally different than a HVLP sprayer... first off your are spraying latex paint... which has the consistancy of a large orgasm... so that tip is useless... spraying stain is like spraying water... if you do spray it yourself go to the hardware store and spend 80$ on a gravity feed high volume low pressure spray gun... go rent a compressor if you have no access to one... prep your garage with a fan and a filter in the door and lots of lights... if you don't have access to a paint booth... ask around for tips on prepping... follow the mixing instructions for the activator and stuff... make sure you clean the gun well after each use and especially after each clearcoat... test spray the gun on something and make sure the width of the spray is good for you and you aren't putting more paint and clear into the air than you are onto the car... paint the pieces... 3 coats of base should be fine... 3 coats of clear should be ok... it's not rocket science... just test it on somehting else so you are comfortable spraying... this eclipse (i've posted before)... was my first attempt at painting a car... i did it in a garage... it turned out well...
