Product Description

This system is designed to provide a fine finish on wood and metal surfaces. The turbine provides more power and longer life than the HV2000 series systems for use in commercial applications that utilize a wide variety of coatings. The HV2500 is appropriate for lacquers, stains, enamels, and other solvent based materials with flash points higher than 99 degrees Fahrenheit. Paints and solvents that contain hydrogenated hydrocarbons should not be used with this system. It can also spray latex and water borne coatings, some thinning may be required. The system comes complete with turbine, stub hose, 25 foot air hose, semi-professional spray gun equipped with all purpose material fluid set, gun wrench, thin material fluid set, cleaning brush, viscosity stick and cone strainers.

Great HVLP Sprayer
 
Review Date: June 21, 2006
Reviewer: Mark Novak, Seattle WA
Bought the CH HV2500 to paint all the cabinets in my house. Had never used a sprayer before. Took me six days to prepare the cabinets (remove hardware, wash, sand, prime, tape off face etc), and only about three hours to spray the whole job, 62 cabinets. I sprayed acrylic latex. The hardest part was in getting this thick paint thinned down to the correct viscosity. I also used Floetrol to help the latex lay flat. Once I discovered the correct mix, the CH HV2500 put on a mirror-like finish. I am very happy with this product.

we've been waiting to purchase an hvlp sprayer and have been experimenting with much more pricey outfits (1,000-2,000)We were in a pinch and decided to buy this outfit because we needed one asap. we figured it would hold us over till we could get one of the outfits we had been looking at purchasing. what a surprise! this is a great hvlp. we've used it numerous times now. no hassle to set up. no hassle to use. no hassle to clean. the hose is great for getting behind larger pieces and the spray flow is perfect to use with lacquer or poly. (although the 2 stage won't accomodate paint) we are so happy with it that we are going to stick with this one!
Great System - Great price

I am a professional finish carpenter and I do painting on the side (cabinet work, trim, etc). I have used a variety of HVLP sprayers and this unit, does just fine with all types of finishes when used properly. I have all the needle/nozzle sets (all purpose, thin and thick material) and I have no complaints when spraying various finishes (stains, latex, water/oil based clear-coats). The trick is knowing which tip to use and how to thin the material properly. When done right, this unit certainly gets the job done.
Very nice sprayer

While this may not be the best HVLP on the market I give it 5 stars because I was able to very easily do exactly want I wanted to with it.

I had never used anything like this before but I decided to give it a try with the kitchen cabinets that I was building. I was very apprehensive about my ability to use it correctly, but I was actually amazed at how smooth of a finish I was able to get with it. A professional job could not look any better...

I used this solely with Minwax oil based satin finish polyurethane, which was of the correct viscosity straight out of the can.

I consider the cleanup of the gun to be much easier than cleaning out a paint brush, even though I used an oil based product with it.

As far as over spray goes, there still will be quite a bit, so cover everything up well around the area you are spraying in.

If you are debating on whether to spray or not, and you have a lot of material to cover, I would highly recommend using this sprayer, as I know that it saved me many days of brushing and I would have never got as smooth of a job without this.

Reviewer: N. Buckmaster, Bellevue, Wa. USA
I really like the the sprayer. However, you really have to practice to get used to the spray pattern that is established. It's hard to see the finished product unless you get the light just right. There are darker streaks at the middle of the spray than at the outskirts of the pass. I used semi-gloss Sherwin-Williams paint and in most cases it covers beautifullly. I also diluted the paint with a water based conditioner and this seemed to help allow the paint to spread without drying to rapidly. The gun is really easy to clean and the most difficult thing is to make sure the paint is the right consistency for spraying.
