What Made Me Purchase Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer?

I painted my home five times in the last fifteen years with a brush. My nephew works in a paint factory.

He proposed that I should use a paint sprayer to paint my home. I tried three guns for the purpose. They were good but I asked him to provide a versatile nature tool.

Then he gave me Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer, I used the gun and enjoyed the work. I find it the perfect tool for smaller projects such as home painting.

The different parts and functions of the gun really impressed me.

Some Top Notch Features of Earlex HV5500

I would like to share some important Features of the gun with my audience. Let’s discuss.

Flow-Adjustment

There is a point of flow adjustment on Earlex HV5500.  It helps to control the flow of liquid. You can easily open the metal knob to increase flow, and tighten it to restrict flow.

It is very simple but works well. The other feature, a fast Push-N-click adjustment switch also supports you to adjust it easily.

Versatile Spray Patterns

You can push the air cap of the Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer in three different positions: round spray, horizontal spray, and vertical spray.

These are very tightly-focused patterns to spray into the tight spots. So while working on small-sized projects, this feature of the gun remains much helpful.

Use Of Multiple Materials

It won’t be an exaggeration to say that I actually bought Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer to spray multiple paints. When painting my own home, I used many different colors and types of paint.

Mostly, I sprayed latex paint outside and enamels inside my home. But the amazing thing I felt is that the gun works well for all types of solvents as I desired to soothe my aesthetic sense.

The Hose Length

When working at home, you often have to change the place. If every time, you have to carry the entire HVLP paint system with you, you may feel it irksome.

But Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer allows you to spray freely using its 13-Feet hose pipe with the one-inch diameter and 5.5-Feet power cord.

So you can easily spray on your cabinets, furniture, doors, and shutters, even all interior and exterior surfaces.

Fine Finish And Less Overspray

The very important appealing feature of the Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer is that you can get very little overspray, unlike other conventional spray guns.

It is very safe and favors woodworkers. It also produces fine spray finishing and fast drying finishes providing a more healthy and friendly environment.

Portability

Earlex HV5500 is a lightweight and portable gun that can be carried where you want to work.

The strong carry handle makes it easier to hold it tightly during work.

The onboard storage, 11.43 pounds weight, and an aluminum body of spray gun help you to grip the gun during working on the upper part of the surface using ladders.

Use With One Hand

This feature of the Earlex HV5500 HVLP Paint Sprayer also impressed me as I was working alone. There was none to help me when standing on the ladders.

I hold the gun in one hand from its tall carry handle; the other hand was free to hold a gallon of paint, masking paper, and even a cup of coffee.

Price

The price of the Earlex HV5500 HVLP Spray Station is around $450 to $1600.
