Iwata definitely has the best atomization of any gun. Totally agree
Hey hey Brian. Thanks for taking us along. The job turned out awesome. Appreciate the time you take and all the tricks and tips.
Just got my ws400 series 2 and I absolutely love it ....... by far the best gun I've ever used for clear
Best guns out there. Flawless finish Brian!
Actually,these guns are perfect for novice painters.Much better than SataJets which can be water hoses if not used correctly.I found my Iwata guns to be very beginner friendly.In fact all my guns now are pretty much all Iwatas .Great video as always .
I bought these from the UK when they first came out. They are great spray guns!
used this gun for the first time today and it atomizes really nicely. Such a beautiful finish. I usually use x5500 for the past 4 years but this is something else!
I must say just got the LS400 and the WS400 series 2 last week and have not used them yet, always loved the Devilbess Gti's but had to get them after watching your videos about them so next week going give a try and hopefully be my to be gun from now on. Like the videos. 👍
Ive been using the series 1 since they've been out, heard all sorts about these guns! I've never had a problem with them. Beautiful guns i dont use anything other except iwata
Heres what I think, Iwata should pay you to go and teach the other painters how to use this gun, many bad reviews and dont know how to properly use this gun.
This series 2 gun is a lot easier to use than the originals. But yes there is for sure a talent to dialing in a Iwata lol
How da faq, can you not paint a decent job with these guns. They literal paint for you. I love them
Top painter at my work owns both. Had his Evo 1 for 10 years and prefers that. Says the new one feels too big in his hand, I held both and the new one is definitely bigger. I used his Evo 1 for the first time the other day, loved it so much I spent £450 on one as soon as I got back
I live in Orlando, and I have the ws400 clear and ws400 blue obs for solvent base For a year now. And the technical specifications of the 3 models, were taught to me by an iwata technician in Europe.
See you like the series 2 guns. I did tell you that you would when we got them in the UK. I still prefer the DV1 basecoat gun but nothing touches the Iwata series 2 clear gun for me.
Shame we didn’t get the metal pots over here you like guys have.
Keep up the good work on the videos :-)
Nada podria salir mal en sus manos amigo es usted un excelente conocedor del tema, a hecho excelentes aplicaciones con pistolas baratas, que esperamos con esta de última tecnología
thank you for reviewing
Great video! I am confused by your warning to not buy these guns if a DIY, novice painter though. It sounds like these guns will save a lot of time, headaches and give consistent, superior results. Doesn't it make sense to buy the best gun and invest the learning curve into the ultimate gun you will end up with anyway? Given the high cost of materials, shouldn't we strive for the best result from the beginning?
I have an old 400 and love it.
another great video, thank you for sharing your knowledge 😊
Thank you!
Incredible gun
So interesting your perspective on the Series 2. I know TheGunMan speaks poorly of them saying they are a pain in the ass to dial in. But tbh, he is negative with almost any spray gun that is not a GTI Prolite.
I am torn between a Sata 5500 1.3I or a Iwata w400 Bellaria for my clear gun.
You mentioned about clear being piled on around the edges and I see that a lot when some technicians spray a super high european 2:1 solid clears with a Sata RP gun. The Sata's with that O Pattern just loves to pile on clear.
I am geared more toward restoration/custom work so I am trying to achieve that super flat finish.
I am definitely going to look more into the WS400 series 2 gun for clear now. I just hear soo many mix reviews.
Thanks Brian
thanks. at last you made a review about this gun. i already have that last year. i used to my bumper and seen to the same youre telling now. i had taht in clear and base guns from immingham. its really great gun. need only to know how to use it. its really smooth to look spray results..
That came out nice.
The first editions of the digital guns that came out in the uk had faulty gun body coatings. They started to peal off but I think the issue has been resolved and iwata replaced faulty guns. Just something to look out for
Great video, quick question what's the best way to store a spray gun that's not used regularly?
its about time they bring these to USA,!! one of the cool things they developed is 3 different nozzles you can order gun with for different outside temps like high humidity, dry conditions , or neutral.
Nice job bro big like 👍
The LS400 HVLP was designed to atomize the droplets of water-based paint, which is well applied wet, which is why the nozzle of the LS400 et green is much larger than the nozzle of the WS400 OBS Blue. I have all 2 and the difference is very big when applying solvent base
LS was developed for solvent and first gen waterborne while the blue OBS was developed for second gen waterborne
Hi Bryan, the ws400 blue Designed for solvent-base, the LS400 was designed for water-base.
The blue cap is designed for wet on wet, water systems, like Axalta spies hecker, cromax pro, Basf 100 line
Looks great.. what is on the booth floor
I would absolutely love one of these🖐
Nice. Made my bones on an lph400- always wanted the newer supernova but got lost in the sata sauce. Looks impressive, I need to demo the clear version (I’m pretty good in the base dept with my Dv1) but heck I’d try the LS. Good vid brain. Keep it up man.
Badass video ❤
Hey Brian/Bryan can you please go over what size air compressors I should use for LVLP or HVLP spray guns? Also what size compressor I should be using to either spray a full car or bumpers and doors at home? I can’t seem to find any good informational videos about that. Love the content 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
i got the ws400 series 1 clear coat really like it
Those are some nice looking guns. They are pretty pricey. I thought about trying the Kiwami 4.
I use the series 2 clear gun atleast 3 times a day since they became available. My only fault with the gun is the digital gauge, im already on my 3rd one after a years use.
My current setup is fan 2 1/4 turns from all the way in, fluid is 3 1/2 turns from all the way in, spraying at 1.5 bar
Looks slick, where were these guns 20 years ago when I was painting 3-5 cars a day?
Hey, seen alot of videos and just getting into this. Have 4 vehicles to paint. GM black and Acura graphite luster metallic. What is the best lower priced gun and what paint manufacturer and system would you recommend?
If you want a good setup on the ws400 clear coat, remove one turn, just open 2 turns of fan and 4 turns of material at 30 psi. It's my go-to setup on that gun using a high solids clear coat, and it's the best gun I've ever used for the clear coat 😊
I used to do that then I found fully open 1 1/2 turns closed worked better on fan
@@markmikheyev6730 That gun only has 3 and a half turns of fan, if you remove it one and a half turns, it's only 2 turns, and that's the configuration I wrote in my comment 😊😜
1.2 ?
Your daily clear?
@@saennsandstrom2247 1.3 hd
Wasn‘t it the Purpose for the Evolution of the Series 2 NOT to Play work the Fan anymore ? Just Full Fan and off it Goes like Most other guns ?
I have the iwata w400lv to spray clear coat work awesome for spray paint r500 work good 2
great content. big fan for years (before you moved). will you be moving to water-borne, I mean incorporating it into your lineup? it would be great to see you welcome and include it in regular demos. I know it is not popular yet in your area, but it is in other (large segments) geographies. it is the future, and this is the society of paint. the thing is the art of paint: application, technique, knowledge. the move away from solvents can be looked at as the same historical change when we moved away from lead. I love the growth and change. let's get ahead of the curve and look into water-borne techniques.
wow, man. this is nuclear; like splitting the atom. the more I watch, the better it gets. its a real science, and this channel is such a great place to learn.
Which gun is better for metallics, the ls 400 or the dv1 basecoat
😮😮😮😮wow super nice spray gun...
Shout out to my country in phillipines
Great video team iwata the new gen is way out of my league$$
1st time i used the ws400 1st gen solvent gun it was a water hose runs every where. Did you reduce wth activator ? by how much. Also my settings were ,Bottom wide open/trigger wide open and fan 3.5 out from closed fort he fluid.29 psi
Where did you even get this guns from? I have been trying to get my hands on one of them and I can’t seem to find a website
How much do you use these guns vs others in your collection? Have you dialed in the clear coat gun anymore? What settings you at with it?
What gun is the best for solids just white and black?
Hey Gents, im a novice and want to respray the clear coat on one side of my RV. How do i prep? Do i need to take the old off? If so, how? Please help. Thanks
So I really like your video. I do have a question for yeah, what size nozzle did you use on the L S 400 base coat?
Standard size 1.3 et
Iwata is named after the brothers Hatsutaro Iwata and Sukezo Iwata
So iwata is pronounced eeeewata
Spread the word!
What clear are you using
A paint rep brought these to da shop I work at so we can try them . I’ve had the supernova and all chrome ws 400 and honestly it’s all da same thing 😅 they look nice but the digital regulator coming off and on doesn’t seem like a good idea to me
I'm so new to this that I started watching yesterday. 🙂
What does the 1.2 or 1.3 or 1.4 refer to?
Size of the tip on the gun
Where did you get this im from canada
I've been considering an iwata series 2 gun, thanks for the review.
As a weekend warrior I couldn't really justify a separate base and clear coat gun. Is there a reason I couldn't spray solvent base and clear with the clearcoat gun?
It will not atomize the coating the same way. Although you might not notice if you’re just a DIY
You speak about a "Double Fan" which makes it easier even for the novice to paint. what do you mean in detail? hopefully not the dry spot in the middle of the fan
My man! Typical... superb video. Should you put links to buy the guns? - just a thought
Available on spraygunnner website
Awesome
I have an old Geo FX97 that is supposed to atomize the paint twice. Probably different technology though.
So when it comes to ls400 did you turn in one and a half time too? And on the ws400 I see you tur ed one and a half time but do you prefer that or the other trick you showed where you turn the fan knob til the needle moves ever so slightly
The ls400 original sprayed perfect wide open I'm sure it's the same with this one
im sure you have said it before but why are you taping up your clearcoat cups?
Mannn broo now i need these spray guns to LOL 😂
Que presio tiene esa herramienta en el comercios
Can you do a video painting a car with the Harbor freight 5stage Hvlp
I have both. They deliver like a sata but they are probably the most finicky guns on the market. Setup must be excellent and on tee or not the best for noobs. I saw that with your base coat. I said it looks like a factory panel not a respray. It looked like straight off a line panel. I have yet to use my entech 400 and ws 400. Still using my sagola. And my old tekna copper. Someday will have some fun.
If you were to spray base with the ws400, would you be able to tell much difference vs the LS?
@@dogemcmoon9644supposedly the entech 400 or ls I have the version one. So it hvlp and easier to handle but still the fluid pressure distance and fan issues. They are finicky and they need to be set perfect. More oem type peel imo. Ws 400 is just like u see super fine. Basically hides the result by coming out really like straight off the line panel. Sata doesn’t do that it belts it out. And notice u really wouldn’t need to cut anything as the finish is so fine and perfect not much to do to send it to customer. Really an excellent gun but not really for your noobish guy. The settings as he says really need to be close to perfect or you’ll get run city or just too much build certain areas or dry spot from bad fan setup. It’s too wide factory and needs like 1 to 11/2 turn in
Bottom line ur gonna get more peel with the entech for mine since I had series 1. Don’t shoot clear with it. It’s a base gun. It’s not a clear gun. Ws is the compliant high atomizing clear gun.
Porphis pd717 is the way to go. Similar performance and is half the price ive used iwata but i never did like the gyns design and the way it sprayed
I use both base and solvent based on what the client is paying and the WS base spray’s solvent better than the LS base does, it’s more about air consumption and saving materials with the LS guns, no different than satas HVLP and RP, iwata LS is HVLP, WS is compliant like satas RP and most other brands “HTE”
Yea Because the WS400 Blue is the gun designed for solvent-based, the LS400 was designed for water-based, not solvent-based
@@mundotuningcustompaint3488 no it isn't, the difference in the LS and WS isn't material based, it's based on transfer efficiency, the LS is designed to save as much material as possible, just like every other HVLP version of a spray gun. The point of HVLP regulation is to makeguns that save material for the consumer. For a shop that goes through 100 gallons of clear coat in a month the LS is made to get more of that on the car rather than over spray, the WS is made for consumers that prioritize finish quality and speed over material savings
The ws Uses way more Air than a sata Rp.
The ws Uses way more Air than a sata Rp.
@@lutra7670 can you read at all? I never said they used the same amount of air, I said that the WS is a Compliant gun, like the SATA RP, while the LS is an HVLP gun, like the SATA HVLP
Have ever sprayed the new sata x5500 rp 1.3 clear coat gun? and if so how would you compare with to the iwata you just used?
just switched from sata 5500 rp 1.3 to the supernova for clear and it lays much better not as much peel and i run through less material. changed my clear game no doubt
Iwata atomizes finer than the Sata 5500 even with the I pattern fan .
I still use gti pro lite for base and clear, happy with it but id like to try another gun. Devilbiss still serves me good like the first day it did, so im stuck deciding between new ws400 series 2 and dv1 for clear....
I've always been devilbiss but this WS 400 clear is an INSANE gun. If you've never used one get one. I bought the old version. So good.
@@Mcfc2Rich Ive been lucky to find a test gun in a local shop few days ago, but the old version, ws400 evo clear gun. Its true about the huge fan with dry in middle, but when you close down that fan it does spray beautiful indeed. Il wait for series 2 test gun to arrive, if its similar, il buy it. It does work great, this iwata ws400 series. Love it so far. Tho id like to test other guns too, dv1, some sagola maybe, and the sata 5500cc.
Detachable gauges are for the gun washer.
He mentioned as of if water base paint has a second gen now anyone know the difference?
Will you sell me the blue one I’m off California so we only use waterborne
Not me looking for this and it pops up!!
Can I use the first gen ls400 entech for both solvent and water base?
It sprays both. It was designed for water. I spray solvent with it and it works fine.
@HackMasterBlaster thanks
@@Eputz05 no problem.
What difference would it make if you sprayed your clear at around 32 psi?
The higher the pressure the more the clear is atomized which should result in a flatter finish (less orange peal)
More air over powering the fluid. Excessive overspray and dried air droplets
@@jamesfell4793 Brian said all atomization occurs in the gun body
Когда показывают новый инструмент, хочется понять разницу с другим инструментом в сравнении. Взять этот краскопульт, взять аналог, но с обычной дюзой и показать насколько отличается качество распыления. И можно ли добиться похожего результата, меняя давление и подачу. В России такая же привычка блогеров и продавцов не показывать разницу. Поверьте, настоящему мастеру не важно какая там дюза, это технологии для продаж. Важно как инструмент работает. Если при одной вязкости материала, и скорости переноса массы на материала на площадь (в цифрах), разрезная дюза даёт мельче каплю без пересыхания этой капли , то это хорошая технология. А если она делает то же самое, что и обычный пистолет на повышенном давлении, но это ерунда.
И всё же спасибо за видео
How do I win
Brian, your choice? 4600 or WS400?
Don’t make me decide lol
Come on bro, tell us lol? I have the supernova series one ws400 HD but I’ve been thinking about getting the quicker Sagola 4600 dvr clear.
I'm not sure of this is the case but if Brian is getting comped guns from manufacturers he should do a few give aways.
Anybody know which pps 2.0 adapter is needed for the series 2?

Does anyone else get mottle with Deltron DBC basecoats? Doesnt happen with shopline JB nor with JBP
Yes all the time. Especially on hoods! I hate it been painting for 20 years never had issues til recently. I've tried different reducers clears and guns with no luck. I'm about done w/ppg
@@joeswartz5232 the pigments are way too strong with DBC. Plus it's way overpriced
Make sure you use the proper reducer & try 75% overlap.

Where can you buy them????

Out of stock
A professional painter can pick up the cheapest of spray guns and finesse a great finish from it but a novice couldn't. Likewise a novice would have difficulty laying out a nice finish on one of these guns. If Brian hasn't already made a video on the best professional spray gun for a novice to use and get a great finish he should.
That was big risk basing that door and leaving it to cure, luckily it didn't pickle up when you laid down the next coat of base. That often happens
Thats never happened to me. Not sure what the risk is
No risk if water based but if solvent it can definitely happen as the solvents in the reducer on the second coat can attack cured base causing it pucker up, some painters call the reaction fry ups because the result resembles the edges of a fried egg. @@PaintSociety
I base and clear entire doors that way that problem never happens
I wish I can order those gun here in the Philippines...online isn't reliable here full of scums..china made..more power to ur reviews❤
Order from the UK bud. We're regulated on that. Spraygunsdirect.
