Hi Pete you've got more guns than I've had runs over the last 40 odd yrs lol good video mate 👍👍

[bill]

looks really well made, thanks for the great video pete🤙🏾

[benjaminchu]

Outstanding performance from these Meiji guns, mate! Personally, I think the finishes are up there compare to the top guns such as Sata X5500, DV1 and etc.

I really appreciate your videos very much. Have both of these guns coming from Japan. I primarily spray nitro over various base colors and I imagine these with work great. Cheers, Phil.

Hi Pete, I have an old Star-S710 1.2mm with the side cup and being a lefty it does not bother me, sprays 2K clear at 2 bar realy nice and flat, better than my ANI R150, the side cup can be a pain in tight spaces but makes up for it when doing a lot of painting with the gun pointing up or down as you can just tilt the cup

[vonovine]

Great video Pete.
A wealth of information.
Helping people with a more confined budget to make the right choice first off, without wasting money making poor choices.
Look like nice guns.
Just basecoated a tank with a Sata minijet 3 hvlp no overspray, as in none.
Where as my Sata RP 1.3 full size gun coats the whole room/ booth.
To me that is an important choice too.
Trash the room/ booth or not trash.

Really interesting experiment with the different colour primers Pete it does make a huge difference but they both look nice, I had a look in the Kapci software and the Merc 6376 Green Hell Magno is suggesting a Grey primer 🤔🤷‍♂️
Those guns do look well made and are a very nice design, I was surprised that they used a 1.6 for clear but it laid it down very nice mate from what I could see the finish is just as good as any other gun, it would be good to see a direct comparison of the Meiji and maybe a GTI ProLite or something similar when laying the clear.
I hope to be posting another vid later mate and you might like this one as it's the Aston AST5024D Purple Rain and the Kapci 6030 which I have found the limit of how heavy you can lay this clear 🙄😒😂

Thanks for the presentation and overall pointing me in the Meiji direction. Also I am almost biting the bullet on a side cup model for the first time in my life so fingers crossed I get accustomed to it. Being a beginner, it's probably a learning curve but also a smaller unlearning curve at the same time.

What I wanted to ask is if the DeVilbiss Neptune cup is interchangeable with any of the Meiji Finer Force or Finer Core? Thanks again 🙏

Morning Pete, wow the difference the base coat makes really is night and day I appreciate you doing this comparison, I wonder if my “professional” repair on my rear bumper of my Passat is visually darker than the rest of the car I should have told them to do it again really. At first I thought the guns was full size until you said they was a mini gun and when you started to use them. They give a lovely finish though.
Cheers Pete.
Have a good weekend.
Steve.

Pete looks more like a Kawasaki ninja 650 green nice colour through on the left hand side of the petrol tank

Hey Pete the Meiji brand definitely makes a high quality gun, I personally have the previous B model with 1.6 tip and really liked the way it sprays but it just felt unbalanced for me painting a vehicle with. That’s why I want to try the Meiji finer core full size centre cup gun I’m thinking would probably go for the 1.5 HTE setup.

[ANDY-wemr]

nice video pete well done thanks for sharing that with us

[watchthisspacecarchannel]

Hello Pete, hope you are well mate, that was quite a difference in the final colour but I guess that’s to be expected, I’ve mostly only ever used a light grey primer which seems to be good for what ever colour goes over the top, I am for the first time using a black epoxy primer on some window trims which are being sprayed satin black so it made sense to get black primer but those guns look like they are very decent

[gavinalmeida]

I like both base colours, I guess it would depend on the colour scheme overall which I would choose.

[chokzloza]

Hi pete, do you recommend slthe finer force R for basecoat at clearcoat?

[flyhigh]

Hello again Pete. What would you recommend the best mini gun for your money? I would just like to have one gun to do everything. I’m restoring an old lawnmower I really don’t wanna buy multiple guns.

[randymehrhoff]

PETE, IS THE B VERSION OK FOR SOLVANT BASE ? .. AND MY SECOND QUESTION IS, WOULD YOU CONSIDER THE B TO BE GOOD ON LOW CLEAR OVERSPRAY?, IT LOOKS LIKE LOW OVERSPRAY ON YOUR VIDIO, BUT ITS HARD TO TELL JUST BY WATCHING YOUR VIDIO ? THANKS PETE

[kenc]

Pete, The fan looks quite small on the R model, is it?

[flyhigh]

Do you have a link where you buy your guns from? Thank you!
