Compatibility Notes

Verify your air hose has a ¼ in NPSM fitting (or use an adapter).
For pressure-feed/remote cup setups, ensure 3⁄8 in NPSM fluid connection compatibility.
Do not exceed 100 psi air or fluid pressure.
Choose material viscosity appropriate for a 1.8 mm nozzle; reduce or change tip size as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

No-this model is a conventional air spray (non-HVLP) gravity-feed gun designed for smooth atomization with regulated shop air.

It integrates with Graco Fine and Graco Trito spray packages, standard pressure-pot or gravity-cup rigs, and any finishing setup using a regulated air compressor and compatible ¼ in NPSM air / 3⁄8 in NPSM fluid connections.

Packages vary. Many listings sell the gun only. Check your kit contents; cups, hoses, and adapters may be purchased separately or included in a spray package.

Use a shop compressor capable of providing clean, dry, regulated air within the gun’s limits (do not exceed 100 psi). Include moisture traps and a regulator for consistent atomization.

Medium-viscosity coatings such as primers, sealers, epoxies, and urethanes are a good match. For thinner clears, you may prefer a smaller orifice variant; for heavier materials, adjust reduction or pressure accordingly.
