5.0 out of 5 stars Best for lacquer, January 13, 2006

My Fuji system came with a #4 aircap set and it worked just okay while spraying lacquer, shellac, and water base, however it was going on just a bit too heavy. At the suggestion of my finishing class instructor, I bought the #3 cap and it sprayed those finishes perfectly. I'll probably get the most use out of this aircap, unless I spray paint, in which case I probably will have to go to a #5 in all likelihood.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fuji #3 aircap for waterborn finish, August 29, 2008

This review is from: Fuji Industrial Spray Equipment 9001-3 Aircap Set #3 for XT Spraygun (Tools & Home Improvement)

In comparison to the #4 aircap typically included with the Fuji systems, in my hands, the #3 aircap produced a dramatic reduction in "micro-orange peel" (apparently typical of sprayed emulsified water-based finishes?) Using my favorite brand of water-based shellac, lacquer and EmTech 8000 CV finish (Target Coatings), I found the cost of the aircap was well worth the time savings in sanding/buffing to produce a mirror smooth finish on my kitchen cabinets. Although probably sacrilegious to many of the pros, after three coats using the finer aircap, the finish was smooth enough that I did not even bother sanding out the finish on many of cabinet interiors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice quality aircap set., November 22, 2006

This review is from: Fuji Industrial Spray Equipment 9001-3 Aircap Set #3 for XT Spraygun (Tools & Home Improvement)

I have had this capset for about a year now and this it works great. I use it for shading lacquer and spraying water based lacquer. The fuji guns took me a little while to get familiar with, (the spring plate and aircap can be a pain sometimes) but once everything is put together the guns sprays great. I turn the air cap counter-clockwise one click to make a smaller fan when shading and this works great to satnd back and fog on color. One thing I noticed is that whe I change needle and aircap sets I have to also tighten or loosen the spindle valve seal nut, this is to allow the needle to slide more freely though the head of the gun. I recommend this unit to anyone intersted in purchasing an HVLP system.
