Has anyone had any experience with a Hero HVLP Turbine? Saw one on Craigslist without hose and gun, and was thinking about purchasing it. Haven't sprayed any finishes yet, but think I would like to give it a try. Have followed recent discussions on HVLP spray guns, so doesn't bother me that this unit comes without the gun, but was wondering about the quality of the turbine itself. Apparently it's made in Canada so it must be good, right?
Thanks,
Marty

Todd,
thanks for the advice. I'll probably buy the turbine, if it's still available tomorrow. I have been following the discussions on spray guns, and think I'll invest in the Fuji; haven't brought a new tool in awhile and I would like to try spraying on a finish.
