I switched completely to HVLP, primer included.
The savings in material alone is well worth it. A 20 ounce cup on an HVLP gun will cover approximately the same area as a 32 ounce cup on a siphon gun because fog and overspray are greatly reduced.
Most HVLP guns are designed to work at 8-10 pounds of air pressure at the nozzle. Since shops usually don't have the elaborate equipment to measure air pressure at the nozzle, it translates to approximately 40 pounds inlet pressure. Some of my HVLP guns even have '43 lbs. inlet' cast into the metal.
Just a tip. I've found the HF purple HVLP guns they sell for $9.97 to $14.97 are great little guns for all around work. I have four or five. I wouldn't tackle a complete, clear coat job on a pickup with one, I have higher priced, higher quality guns for that, but for parts and small projects those purple guns are great.
