how good does this gun do with oil base exterior enamel paint?

This gun is not good for large jobs. It is more for touch up work. That being said, it will handle the paint okay. You will have to thin it and spray many coats to get good coverage. Practice on a piece of old wood or cardboard until you get the spray adjusted and it will do a good job on small projects.

This gun is for painting automotive. It has very fine ports and paint passages, normal oil or latex base paints will not work. Check for a contractor sprayer.

I only use rem oil for inside the barrel, and the seals. And very sparingly. This lube is OK for the exterior, but not recommended for break barrel guns.

Yes, it's never failed me and I've even used it as my primary weapon. It's a good gun for the price.

I have been using them for a year or so and see no deterioration yet. I just worked with my .416 Africa PH rifle and as a final bore prep used a light coating of metal preserving type fluid, which I flushed out with the squeege, as shooting with an oily bore is not good. Using the squeegee in this manner, it should last many years. All can say.

I have used it for enameling on copper. Just once, but it worked very well.

What type of paint are you thinking. As far as latex water base and oil paints, its no problem. It can shoot anything a regular airless can spray. It has up too 2,000 psi ....Berh paint is pertty thick and it does it with ease, just buy the proper spray tip to your liking. Also as a heads up, Graco sells only 4 tips for the gun but are very expensive. You can remove the plastic guard on the factory nozzle on the gun and cut some of the plastic around the tip. You should be able to pull it out and use different sizes from regular spray guns.

Yes! you can paint the gun on the outside. NOT the inside. if you do in the inside it can gunk up parts and break your gun! and one more DONT. Never paint the orange (fake gun identification) thing on the tip. And thanks for asking!

Yes more than likely but then why get that airsoft gun then. Yes sanding or scraping the green paint off would work but you may take off the finish by doing that.and painting over it will look tacky and it may peel off depending what type of paint you use.best of luck though

I would not buy this gun specifically for a big project like a door, but I have painted large door size surfaces and it does okay.

I do that anyways so far I see no problem.The gun looks very sturdy.It is just hard to get a good group.May be it's too light or the components are not well designed.I will not recommend this gun at the 240.00$ price range.

I have never actually cleaned the barrel. I use something called "SPRING CYLINDER OIL". This was highly recommended in the instruction manual of another co2 gun I purchased. I have had this pistol for awhile and it has been working beautifully. All you do is place a drop of oil on the tip of the co2 every time you install a new one. I must say the oil is hard to find and a little expensive. A 1 oz. bottle cost me $15.99 but it works great.

I haven't used the rifle too much yet, but there shouldn't be too much maintenance. Wiping the gun down after shhoting with a cleaan rag and gun oil will keep the gun looking good for years to come. Occationally lubing the pivot point and chamber as instructed should keep the rifle functioning well. This should just be a few drops every few thousand shots, too much oil will lead to detonations and reduce the rifle life.

I find the gun very easy to use. I use it to remove top layer of paint from HO scale model trains in order to change the lettering. I use this airbrush with both my standard air compressor and with a portable diaphragm one with equal results. Best of luck, I think you will find this airbrush is very versatile and forgiving.
