Two DeVilbiss guns so old they could vote. And a Graco gravity gun. Funny how ya get accustomed to the 'feel' of some tools, I don't like using different guns.
Lately seen the Chinese knock-off Binks copies, amazingly cheap but seemingly usable. Friend with a sign shop got the three-gun "kit" a year ago and his guys use the things a LOT. Dunno if I'd want to finish a vehicle with one, tho.

I have a old DeVilbiss MBC, man I used to lay out the clear coat with it when I was spraying on the line.
Can't find parts for it anymore, the JGA guns were good hose machines too ;>)
A really slow but awsome atomizing gun is the Geo FX. Sata with the right tip for the right material is a great gun too but so expensive!
I just bought a IWATA for spraying my high build primer and I just LOVE IT !

Paul, what size tip is in your Binks? Is it your all over gun or just for one product?

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but, I use a 1.4 mm with a # 93 air nozzle. I don't use it for primer, I have another gun I use for that. I only use the M1 for clear and colors.
I use an old Devilbiss like this for primer with a 1.8 tip. Kinda heavy, never did like it much.
Sometimes I use an old Craftsman pressure cup for priming, but only if over spray isn't of much concern. As for spot priming, I usually use a self etching primer in a rattle can.
