I would suggest a Badger 360 universal, it is more money, but well worth. It will do pencil thin lines, and I swear you could paint a house with this thing. It doesn't require any special tools to take apart, if you use Polly Scale water based pain you don't have to take it apart and clean it every time, if you run plenty of water through when you finish. It will just about spray peanut butter too, so any paint is good, well maybe not peanut butter, but pretty thick stuff. I got mine on E-bay. Whatever you do, just make sure it is double action, and is not just a gravity feed. Don't buy one of these little hobby compressors, these don't give a steady stream of air needed for a good paint job, just get a cheap compressor with a regulator, and a tank. I don't know about a water trap, I live in a high desert environment, so I don't need one. If you get any real humidity make sure you have one. <br /> <br />Happy painting <br />
