Paint comes out in droplets and not spray so you get a texture.

I think they're meant for painting stuff like gates, fences and garage doors where you'd normally use a brush.
200l compressor will do the job

Quoted from the Earlex website (http://www.hvlpshop.co.uk/Earlex+HV5000+Spray+Station-p-5.html)
"Ideal for spraying cars, iron work, sheds & fences, decking, furniture"

Thats an electric all in one unit, the base station has a fan which provides the air supply for the gun.
Iirc i saw a review for a similar unit in a classic bike mag and there supposed to be quite good for the money/size.

I did a paint job using a 50 litre and forgot about the days when I used a small compressor for stuff. The thing kept on running out of air and I couldn't figure out what was wrong
