Default Spray Guns - What do you use?

Guys,

I'm about to shoot a scheme on my EuroSport but need to buy myself a spray gun first. In no way am I remotely artistic so I'll only be spraying fairly large expanses of single colours so no freehand panel line and rivet detailing for me

My question is, what sort of spray gun will do the job? Are gravity fed guns any better? Do I need an expensive one etc etc? What do you guys use with a modicum of success?!

Thanks,
Mark

I bought a Walcom HVLP from www.allsprayguns.com but their website is down down. Really nice stuff for cheap (compared to Devilbis). I know Harley Condra uses a Devilbis and swears by it.

I use a DeVilbiss Finishline II HVLP gravity feed gun. I also just bought a Sata Minijet III HVLP but I haven't used it yet. For air brushing I use a Paasche VL dual action, suction feed, airbrush.

Here is a really good price on a DeVilbiss Finishline III HVLP gun:

Here is a great price on the Sata Minijet III HVLP:
