This may have been stated before, but just in case...
For priming, you'll probably want a gun with a larger nozzle, like 2.0mm
or so. For painting you probably want a 1.4mm or so. Also, in a primer
gun, you may have to ditch the sintered or plastic filter in the gun
because it can tend to trap the larger particles of primer pigment.
If I were doing it all over again, I'd probably buy a nice gravity
gun, in the detail gun size (small cup) for priming, since you often
do small priming batches. I used a cheap harbor freight type and
although it worked OK, the machining internally wasn't as nice and it
was harder to clean.
Then, for painting, I'd do the same as I did....buy a nice gun.
I have a SataJet RP Digital II gun, which is very nice. My plan
for this summer is to buy a Mini-SataJet gun for doing small
jobs, as after borrowing one I really liked it. I wouldn't put
it through the rigors of priming though....buy a cheaper brand
for that unless you're willing to clean very thoroughly many
times over.

also the solution. My spray gun is designed for bigger paint jobs and I
simply would need to put more primer in. But I will go for the gravity
version with a way smaller cup.
Thanks again for your help and best regards from Switzerland
