DeVilbiss DV1 Basecoat Spray Gun: Precision Color Matching

The DeVilbiss DV1 Basecoat (B+) is the world’s leading solution for spraying challenging modern basecoats. Whether you are working with the latest waterborne systems or traditional solvent-based paints, the DV1-B+ is engineered to prevent mottling and clouding, ensuring perfect metallic orientation and a seamless blend every time. It’s not just a spray gun; it’s a precision instrument for the master refinisher.

Revolutionary B+ Air Cap Technology

The heart of the DV1 Basecoat is the DV1-B+ Air Cap. This "HLVP" (High Efficiency) cap provides HVLP-level finish quality but with the speed and efficiency required by busy New Zealand body shops. Key advantages include:

• Perfect Metallic Control: Designed to lay down metallic flakes evenly, eliminating the "tiger striping" common with inferior guns.
• Consistent Atomization: Maintains a symmetrical spray pattern even with low-viscosity paints.
• Efficient Transfer: High transfer efficiency means more paint stays on the panel and less ends up in your filters.
• Co-Axial Air Valve: Combines the air inlet and adjusting valve into one ergonomic component for 12x more sensitivity.
