Overview & Key Benefits
Graco 24J601 Finex Air Spray Gravity Feed Side Cup Gun is a lightweight, conventional (non-HVLP) detail/touch-up gun. Its swiveling side cup lets you maintain a level paint column while spraying at angles—ideal for wood finishing, automotive spot repairs, small parts, and general maintenance coatings.
Compatible Machines / Setups

Frequently Asked Questions
No. The 24J601 Finex is a standalone conventional air spray gun. It connects to standard shop air and compatible Finex side-cup accessories, not to airless sprayer machines.
Use a clean, dry, regulated air supply capable of conventional spray pressures (up to ~100 psi working air). Actual settings depend on your coating, nozzle size, and booth requirements.
Yes. The Finex platform supports alternate needle/nozzle/air cap kits. Choose a larger size (e.g., 1.2 mm or 1.4 mm) for thicker coatings or more flow, and smaller for finer atomization.
No. The 24J601 is a conventional air spray gun. If your shop requires HVLP for compliance, select an HVLP model instead.
The 1.0 mm setup suits light to medium-viscosity materials (e.g., clear coats, stains, dyes, thin enamels). For thicker coatings, step up to a larger needle/nozzle kit.
