How to choose this instrument?
The main thing when buying is to pay attention to the appearance of the device. No, it's not about the design and bright stampings, but about the quality of the case and all adjacent elements. Paint sprayers should not be sheathed in plastic, as the slightest damage can deform the entire tool and significantly affect the quality of the application of the liquid as a whole.
The best option is when the case is made of nickel-plated aluminum. This not only protects paint sprayers from mechanical damage, but also prevents corrosion on their surface. In addition, when choosing, pay attention to the holes in the nozzle cover. If you notice any damage, do not purchase such a tool, even if its cost is the most affordable among all other models. Last but not least, feel free to pull the trigger. By this action, you will verify the correct and accurate operation of the spray needle.
