Spray guns for lacquer

[Wraithman]

I will be shooting lacquer for a special project and have the following guns: Devilbiss FLG-4 (HVLP) Devilbiss "Plus" Devilbiss JGA and Devilbiss MBC. What gun would you choose? Thanks!

I also have a Binks Model 7.

Your HVLP gun will transfer the most paint, without waste, but you'll have to adjust yor spraying style to get it to work right, with lacuqer. I can't remember exactly how I did it, was so long ago I used lacquer, but IIRC, I upped the air pressure above what's recommended, and turned in the fluid volume (put out way too much paint for a thin lacquer). If looking for the ultimate pattern and atomization, I'd say use the Binks. They used to be one of the best!
