    HF 43430 hvlp?

    Tried searching but no luck.
    In the past I have seen discussion on a tip for the 43430 that would help with spraying latex. Anyone know what it is and where to get it?
    Thanks

    43430 latex

    I got a bunch of hits that looked like the correct answers mightbe there.

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

      Look at the third review. I bought this tip and it works great. Only problem is that you may need to re-position the brass ring that is press fit on the needle - I did. The ring controls the closed position of the needle - mine didn't fully colse at first. I used a propane torch to heat and move the ring.

      Also, don't be surprised if the tip costs more than the HF gun. I actually bought two of the HF guns - one for latex and the other for finishes.

        dunno what that zip code you mentioned is for ( ) , but the best tip for Latex paint on HVLP is to use 'Floetrol' Paint Additive. you get it in HD. google it for more.
