I'm looking for a sprayer that will be used primarily for water-based urethanes, and perhaps also some lacquer work. Does anybody have any experience using the Critter spray guns for either? Reviews on Amazon are generally good, but there's a few that make me wonder. In particular, one mentions it spits the occasional large droplet of finish, making it impossible to get a good finish coat. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it possible that this could be explained by viscosity problems or a misadjusted spray head, or is it most likely a design flaw of the gun?
I'm attracted to the Critter gun because of: 1, the low price; 2, easy cleanup; and 3, the fact that it uses regular mason jars for the cup (I have dozens of these lying around waiting to be used for something, so I could in theory have several quarts of finish ready to go at any given time!) However, I'm open to suggestion on any other sprayers I should look into. Thanks folks!
