Thats exactly what I was thinking when the Wagner units were first suggested to me. I work as a vendor rep. for various manufactures supplying Home Depot stores with merchandise. I see those units all the time. But the Wagner turbine units are a completly different animal, and they aparently out perform a lot of the more well known turbine system manufactures.

From what I have learned, HVLP is a mandated system in some areas now for environmental contaminate reasons. The HVLP systems require someone with experiance on standard compressor systems to re-learn technique, I think that is the main reason for resistance... but I could be wrong.

The HVLP systems are more efficient and use less sprayable material, and if you do not already have an air systen, compressor driven, with a desicant system inline, the HVLP is much cheaper.

... still learning...
