Default RE: Badger 400 Spray Gun

I was actually thinking of spraying latex paint. So from information on the websites it would have to be either a medium or heavy tip on the gun.

I was reviewing the specifications on an old airless compressor which use to be my Dad's. IR airless compressor c/w 5 gallon tank.... surprising rated for 3.1cfm@40psi and 2.1cfm@90psi. From what the specification plate reads. That's just slightly less than the 1-1/2 hp compressors with dual tanks which are putting rated at 3.4cfm@40psi in the $150~$200 range. The badger 400 spray is rated at 1.7cfm@40psi. That's why I was considering using it as a first spray gun. The are some mini hvlp in town but no specifications are given.
