No primary need to paint with system I have. I can push latex enamel to do trim (should I decide to paint existing trim instead of re-making from nicer looking stock) w/out serious effort. Would not use to paint walls though.
Honestly, I hate house painting. I'd rather pay somebody to paint the outside of my house. Prep work, priming, scaffolds, heat, bugs, mess...
Inside, I can use a roller for wall paint.

And that there are valid reasons to go with a turbine system instead of a conversion gun.
Sure, I have valid reasons for using turbine equipment, I use it every day but it doesn't appear that the OP has valid reasons to use high end turbine equipment.
From the OP
Budget: $400.00 to $500.00.
I cannot justify spending a larger amount based upon the amount of use it will see.
Suggested options would be appreciated.
I'm, not seeing how a high end 4 stage unit has anything to do with his requirements. I need to get to work each day and I manage to get there every day without driving a Lamborghini.
