Anyone know someone in painting business?

I am looking into getting a paint gun for painting a project car of mine. I am looking for recomendations of paint guns. I want something that will give professional results...or could give professional results if done right....not a cheap unit. I was wondering if someone knew someone that could recomend one, or a brand.

What size tips are recomended for each? Are these close??

Primer....1.6-1.7mm??
Base....1.3-1.4mm?
Clear....1.3-1.4mm?

I'd say get your self a sharpe, or if you can hunt down a snap-on dealer, one of there guns will do. There good guns and there not to expensive. You can go with a 1.4 for your base and clear. maybe get something bigger for the primer. I use a 2.0

Im lookin for the same thing as you, a few people recommended finish line guns. They are pretty cheap and i hear they work well.
