Master Airbrush Pro 44 Series High Performance Advanced Atomization Technology HVLP Spray Gun with 1.3mm Tip with Air Pressure Regulator Gauge for Automotive Base Coats, Clear Coats

Perfect fit for my iwata lph400, the only thing I don’t like is the lid but I ordered an original iwata lid and it fit perfect on the cup, overall is a good cup for the money

Nice compact package. Excellent quality. Solid purchase.

The gun it’s self is fantastic, gave me a great finish and was light and easy to use which for a beginner like me is great, but as mentioned in other reviews the regulator is good for the bin, it doesn’t work at all, which lets this down as a package!

This thing is very demanding in terms of air requirements. I run two 30g compressors with over 15cfm combined and I was unable to get the gun to shoot consistently. I tried adjusting the air on the regulator, the gun and the compressor and it never seemed to be good enough. When I was able to spray in intermittent bursts the results were beautiful. I ended up returning this gun because you end up paying a lot for the extra tips that you don't need most likely, you get a cheap cheap regulator and the cup is also too big for comfort not to mention the horrible plastic cap. I don't think it's a bad kit at all but for similarly priced or maybe a few extra $ you can get yourself something very good like an Iwata.

Ordered and received the Master Elite Pro-44 UT kit. I've had it a while but so far only used it one time for a smaller-ish job, which it seemed to work great. So this review will have to be updated as I use it more. My main gun Ive been using for years is a DeVilbiss FLG that has served me well on a lot of paint jobs. The build quality of this spray gun looks great throughout. I didn't see any flaws or issues at all. Nice machining. Nice finish. It seems to be a great piece of equipment. I bought the UT kit, which stands for "Ultimate". That kit includes 4 separate caps, 4 needles and 4 fluid tips each nicely packaged in their own boxes for the following sizes: 1.3mm, 1.4, 1.5 & 1.8. So, if you were only going to buy one spray gun and have it for a long time to spray whatever you needed, this UT kit with all the needles should cover just about every type of automotive or industrial paint contingency. Really all a guy probably really needs is a 1.3mm a 1.8mm (for 2k primers)...and either a 1.4 or 1.5mm for single-stage paints. And maybe all a guy needs is a 1.3mm version of this spray gun and use a cheap 1.8 gun for primer. The kit also includes other items you'll want to hold onto to maintain the spray gun. Comes in a nice box. Note: I double-checked the diameters of the fluid tips with machinists bits and they all seem to be drilled just as labled. (not all spray guns are). Interestingly, the air-caps per my measurements seem to be all identical, other than being labeled for whatever size fluid tip. All the holes in the caps are the same size, locations and angles--as far as I can determine. That's nice to know in case one went missing. The aluminum cup...IDK. It looks good. I'm used to plastic cups. The metal DOES clean up real nice, easier than a plastic cup. It holds a lot of paint, handy if you're doing an overall on a pickup truck, for example. It might get in the way too...of doing corners or spraying in odd pockets. I might have to make a little ferrule adapter for inside the cup at the bottom, so I can adapt the DeVilbiss disposable bag system (zip-loc bags) inside the cup. That's a really neat system. One thing I really like about the older DeVilbiss guns (the bag system). The reason I only used the spray gun once is I happened to get a $99 deal on the H/F Black Widow while I was at the store, and I've been using that to get the feel of it. For $99, I couldn't pass it up. I've been meaning to do a comparison between the two but haven't had the time. That spray gun sprays excellent. So does the Pro-44. I can't say which sprays better yet. The B/W 1.3 fluid tip is actually 1.37mm. Even though it's HTE, there seems to be a ton of overspray and the B/W seems to suck the paint. It sprays nice but sure doesn't seem very efficient. The Pro-44 is HVLP and seemed pretty normal to HVLP in paint consumption with the job I did -- sprayed a roof, with Nason 497 clear. Nice wide spray pattern. It turned out great. But then again, my old DeVilbiss sprayed pretty well too. But the Pro-44 is newer and has a wider fan spray. I DO happen to have a TE-20 cap which I haven't tried. It does screw on (somewhat TIGHT!) ...but the Pro-44 fluid tip OD is LARGER than the OD of the DeVilbiss fluid nozzle. Just want to throw that out there because it wasn't discussed in other reviews I read. Soooo... that means the air gap around the fluid tip using a TE-20 cap is very small...and I would expect it to spray more like a 'conventional' spray gun than an HVLP spray gun (my hunch is). I mean, it would have to ..by design. Although I haven't sprayed paint with it yet so we'll see. And lastly, a DeVilbiss Pro-lite 1.3mm fluid tip literally won't screw onto the Pro-44. That would be nice if it did. Thread size and depth are different. The fluid tips are similar but substantially different. I would say the Pro-44 feels slightly better in the hand than the Black Widow. Factors like that can matter when you're reaching way over to spray a 4x4 truck hood or a roof. But overall, yeah, it's a great spray gun, fantastically 'complete' kit (the Ultimate kit), and seems to spray out nice. I'll update more as I spray more.
