which to get...that is the question


I need your advice guys, I'm in the market for a sprayer, and I can't decide which to get. The Mark iv and the Mark v are at the top of my list. Which do you suggest? Pro's con's?

Re: which to get...that is the question


If you can afford it and have enough work comin in to justify it, go for the Mark V. I just got licensed not too long ago and my name just came out in the phone book, therefore I ended up with the rtx1500. Once I'm busier I'll go for the mark V too, also cool if you plan on going to an apla tech system.

Re: which to get...that is the question


sounds good! That's a good choice as well, however I do a lot of painting, and I see more of a use for the mark 4/5 than the 1500
