Im looking at getting a HVLP sprayer that hooks to a air compressor. Anyone have experience with any good brands?
Can I use this to apply stain(Olympic Maximum) to the deck railings?

If you are only looking at using stain, there is a cheap (like just $6 at HF and other places) washer wand that I've used for stain. Its a simple suction pickup, nearly as fast as my $1000 piston sprayer on the thin stain.
