i'm ready to paint my car... only thing is... what paint gun should i get?

i have a husky 5 hp , 26 gallon air compressor that puts out 5.8cfm @90 psi and 6.6 cfm @ 40 psi...

i know it's on the low side, but what's a decent paint gun that will work well with my air compressor?

i was looking at the devilbiss finishline 3 but it needs 13cfm @ 29 psi , somebody help me :hyper:

satajet or devilbiss, those are both damn good.

BTW, with that compressor shit, I just bought a 6hp craftsman not too long ago, and was thinking bout getting a paint gun. then decided no cause I need a huge compressor, well not so. I was reading a chart over where I work at home depot and they say they work well with even the shittiest of compressors. Im thinking u just cant run them non stop. like you have to let the compressor get back up to the rated psi. and Im assuming they are talking bout the HVLP type.
