13 best spray guns

Review of the best according to the editorial board. On the selection criteria. This material is subjective and does not constitute advertising and does not serve as a purchase guide. Before buying, you need to consult with a specialist.

There are currently few people left who use brushes or a roller for serious car repairs or home decoration. These tools do not allow you to get a perfectly smooth and uniform paint layer on the surface to be treated. Therefore, you have to buy a tool such as a spray gun. Back in the days of the Soviet Union, people tried to spray paint cars, walls and ceilings. Most often, a household vacuum cleaner acted as a source of compressed air. Today the market is littered with tools from different manufacturers, intended for both professional painters and DIYers. In order not to be mistaken in the choice, experts recommend paying attention to several points.

Criteria for choosing a spray gun

1. First of all, you should decide on the design. High quality spraying is provided by pneumatic models. But before you buy them, you need to take care of the compressed air source. And if there are no problems with this at large enterprises, then for home use you will have to buy a compressor. Cheaper and easier things are with electric spray guns. But only expensive models can match the quality of paint application with pneumatics.

2. For a wide range of spray gun applications, it is important to have additional spray guns or replaceable nozzles in the kit. They are available in different diameters (up to 7 mm), the selection criterion is determined by the viscosity of the sprayed material. The lower the viscosity, the thinner the nozzle is required for good atomization.

3. With long-term work with the spray gun, thoughts come about the convenience of operation. The less weight and dimensions, the easier it is to wield the tool. As for paint tanks, containers up to 1 liter are made of plastic or nylon and are installed from above. And large tanks (more than 1 liter) are often made of metal and attached to the bottom of the spray gun.

Our review includes the best spray guns. When compiling the rating, the following criteria were taken into account:

1. tool design;

2. technical specifications;

3. price;

4. expert opinion;

5. consumer reviews.
