I have an Iwata Bellaria that I really like but I think I like my 4000B better😂 And my Iwata cost 10X more. I too bought a second one in case one fails but they are built so well that I think they will last a long time. Excellent value. Cheers
TCP Global paint even has a addendum about base sitting over 24 hrs. It says scuff the base and clear your good. It's nice you do the lower end gun reviews cause as you said a lot of people cant's afford a $800/$1000 gun . But a 50 to 150 seems attainable to get started nice job on the videos .

Hi mate, yeah, scuffing the base with a grey scotchbright is what most people do, I don't like doing that as you can sometimes see it after clear. It does depend on colour but it does happen. I've had real opposite luck with the cheaper guns, some aren't particularly good but ok, some, like the R100 I recently purchased are rubbish, and some, like this one, are very good, but that's the whole idea of having a KZread channel, so I can share my findings and stear people away from the not so good stuff, cheers buddy, thanks for watching. 👍

@@peteshobbies5383 Thank you so much for this review! I'm looking to start painting my bikes myself. I'm looking at Ntools Mini 888, 1000B and this 4000B, but was rightfully very unsure about the quality, since a lot of these CN guns get really bad reviews on Amazon (Ntools aren't really sold on Amazon). This review helped me tremendously, it gave me the guts to throw some money after this manufacture. Only toke 7 weeks of thinking ;) Again, thank you!
I'm really suspicious of this gun. Not that it doesn't perform, but rather that it is the same gun as a current popular model in the states called the Spectrum Black Widow. Ironically, the Black Widow is touted by fans by being a very good Sata copy, has the same CFM ratings as you've guessed, and here's the kicker.... the air cap coincidentally has the same amount of holes in the same configuration. The Black Widow now has an updated version with rear fan adjustment that again looks mysteriously like another Ntools gun except for a few minor aesthetics in the body. The same air cap configuration. While I suspect these things, people are going gaga for an $180 gun, yet the Ntools versions are readily available for possibly less than half that price. I hope I don't come up missing for that conspiracy theory 😢 😂 Great shooting, Pete!

Thanks Pete, I was looking for an inexpensive spray gun to paint my old 89 Silverado. I bought the black hvlp gun that you show in the video and another chrome plated ntools 4000b RP version. The RP version has a higher max pressure written on it. Max pressure on it is 43.5 psi.

Hi buddy, the pressure on the size as a max is often misleading. Some manufacturers put a max, so you know what the maximum pressure the gun should be subjected to. Some is a recommended maximum spray pressure, which obviously is quite different.

@@peteshobbies5383 that’s how it is way out here lol
For Australians, this is same gun as Auarita, or as Italco. So you can get it cheaper than N-Tools one, don’t go blindly by the brand name on it, as someone mentioned people are buying Black Widow for 4x the price, and it’s the same gun. I have started with bunch of copy guns, hate that fluttering, that uneven distribution of material, once I bought Walcom Kombat, had greater more glossy finish, especially after 2 month, china gun finish will dull out, Walcom will be super shiny. This video is not what gun can do, but how important is to know how to use it properly. So someone starting out might be surprised how awful it is actually. As we saw it’s not laying down paint in corners around gas tank, that can be challenging for new painter. Cheap brand gun, like Pete showed us, Sagola for under 50$, Sagola for 100$, Walcom is 100£ in my country for X Light and Kombat, FLG is more money but still great value, Sagola 3300 GTO car, Sata 100 B F R, they are much much better guns than N Tools branded Chinese mass produced Sata copy. I recommend you that if you need something to start buy this, first money that this gun earns you, buy good gun, they are much less CFM and much less overspray, much better finish.

Hola, cuál te gusta más, la R500 o la Ntools mini 800? pensé que sería mejor opción la Ntools 4000B que trata éste vídeo, pero parece consume mucho aire según comentarios. Deseo aplicar base y clear en reparación de lienzos automotriz con 2 pistolas. Mis opciones de compra son las 3 pistolas mencionadas más la mini Iwata W71, todas en 1.3 y la 888 en 1.2. ¿Qué me aconsejas en mi compra? saludos desde México.

Hola amigo, el 4000b usa mucho aire, el R500 usa menos pero no tan bajo como dice la gente, es alrededor de 9.5cfm a 2.5bar. El 888 es el mismo que las copias Sri Pro Lite en Aliexpress, por lo que usa mucho menos aire. pero también es más lento ya que es una pistola más pequeña, nunca he usado una W71, así que no puedo comentar sobre eso, ciertamente si quieres una pistola de tamaño completo, la R500 consume poco aire en comparación con la mayoría de las pistolas de tamaño completo.

I just recieved this gun in the mail. I paid under $50 from Aliexpress. I was a bit skeptical. First impressions. WOW! I can't believe this cost so little. The build quality was awesome. I got the copper/orange color one and it looks really good. Nice trigger and controls. The cup is nice and doesn't leak. I haven't sprayed paint yet but I ran some water through it to check the pattern and its really wide and even. I sprayed it at 20psi and I can tell by the way the water atomized that its gonna spray nice. Loads better than the R500. Uses quite a bit more air tho so it's not gonna work well with small compressors. I don't too much care for the swivel air inlet. Other than that I think this ones gonna be a winner👍

Hi Mate, you're welcome, buddy. I genuinely enjoy making the videos and sharing it with you guys. If you are just going to paint your truck and probably not use it afterwards, then I would buy this. If, however, you think you will be doing more after your truck and like quality tools and your not starving the family, then the Kiwami4 would be a good choice. Your compressor should run either, although I estimate this 4000B to be around 10.5CFM @ 29psi , the Kiwami4 BA4J is 8CFM @29psi, I think this 4000B is better performance wise than the R500 Aeropro/Rongpeng type gun but the R500 is not too bad and cheap, and uses about the same air as the Kiwami4 BA4J cap.

I have both the 4000B and the Bellaria(basically the same as the Kiwami4). They are both very good and I like both. Both are well built and will last. I was impressed how nice the 4000B is for the money. The cup is really nice compared to ones that usually come with cheap guns. The controls are nice and smooth. Nice air cap. It has a big even fan like the Iwata maybe a tad bigger but not noticable. Dont like the swivel air inlet but not a deal breaker. Spare parts are gonna be hard to find but honestly I dont see anything wearing out. Its got thick teflon washers behind the nozzle and under the cup and should last forever if you dont overtighten anything. The cup just hand tightens and I just snug the nozzle on, no leaks. If I had to pick one and money was no issue Id pick the Iwata just because its a reputable brand and parts are readily availablle but I would not feel lacking using the 4000B. The 4000B cost me $50usd off aliexp. Kiwami4's are now around $275-300usd and my W400 Bellaria cost $450usd. They all spray very nice so it all comes down to budget and preference

Hi Pete, back again, could you do a video dedicated to air compressors? I went with the 3300 GTO EPA gun (250L/min), but my Dynamac 100L compressor can't keep up. I've been searching the market and I found one with 350L/min 3Hp. But when checking videos on KZread about it, from empty to full it takes more than two minutes. So, in reality, what does it mean when the manufacturer states those 350L/min? This is going to be a big investment and I wouldn't want to spend close to 1000 quid to then have an air compressor that can't keep up with the gun.
@peteshobbies5383
7 ай бұрын
Hi mate, yes, I will try. Regulators and compressors always come up. First off, you really don't need to spend £1000 to get 350lmin, are you talking about a screw or piston compressor?, screw types are very expensive and very good but not really needed most of the time, a piston belt drive should be enough. A compressor that's rated at say 350lmin will actually be somewhere around 260lmin free air. Free air is more of a true reflection of the output of a compressor. A lot of compressors are more or less the same, but with a different name on the side, they can double in price for the same thing. Let me know what type you are looking at for a grand, and I'll try and help. Cheers 👍

@@peteshobbies5383 the 1000 is for a belt driven 3HP Fini or Fiac. Currently I have a Dynamac of 100L, don't know the specs as they desappeared, but with a tornador, at 8 bar, consuming 200L/min, the compressor comes up in twenty seconds and can't keep up with the air for the tornador. At 30 seconds of work the tornador starts to slow down. I've found off brands claiming 350L/min for 299, but I'm not sure that's realistic. (Cevik PRO 50VX)

You can link the 50lt compressor up to your 100lt compressor. That way, you would have 150L, which will also help. You can also have them running together if you wish and have the power supply for 2 together

This is actually very good, and I'm sure someone who buys one of these will either have no intention of investing in a Sata, or, as is often the case, me included, you are so impressed with the copy, you want the real thing and go on and buy one. Certainly, in the case of the Devilbiss copy, the real thing is streets ahead on every level to the copies, and many people go on to buy the real thing.

@JacobCarlAimiBenson Hi Mate, If it's just a bumper corner you would probably need around 300 to 400ml of ready to go base coat, as for clear, I presume your going to clear the wing and the complete bumper so between 500 and 700ml of ready to use clear coat. Obviously, the size of the vehicle will make a difference as will colour, primer colour, etc, but that's a rough guide. I hope it helps

Hi Malcolm, No, it isn't, I did mention in the video that I think this consumes around 12.5 CFM, so it's not particularly low. There is a lot made of LVLP, and to be honest with you, I don't think they exist for the most part. The Rongpeng/Aeropro R500 is touted as LVLP. They say it consumes 3.5 CFM at 29psi, it doesn't, its at least twice that, and there others that say the same. The Iwata W400 Bellaria or Kiwami4 BA4J uses about the same as the R500 and is not sold as LVLP, presumably because the manufacturer is less likely to stretch the truth, cheers mate 👍
