Campbell Hausfeld TL1004 Dual Action Sander

Campbell Hausfeld TL1004 Dual Action Sander
  • Designed for sanding wood and metal
  • Designed for sanding fiberglass and autobody fillers
  • Best when used for blending and smoothing filler in light duty applications
  • 10,000 rpma

Out of the box this thing worked great. However, a couple of things to consider before purchasing this particular brand/model sander. It uses around 10SCFM @ 90PSI. This is a high air demand tool and for those of you that don't already have that high of an output air compressor or don't have the extra $$$ to pony up like myself you probably should avoid this sander from the get go. I would recommend having no less than a 6-8 SCFM compressor to even consider this as it made my 4SCFM compressor 26 gallon run CONSTANTLY when sanding a fender for my truck (not good). I now have a craftsman DA sander that cost about 30.00 more but only requires 3.1 SCFM to operate therefor an extremely lower load on my compressor that works just as good.

The really bad: About 2/3rds of the way sanding through my fender this sander got stuck in the what seemed like ON position. The switch or some other component inside failed and would not shut off. I had to use the built in regulator to slow it down enough to stop it and unplug the hose. Could be dangerous or at least scare the crap out of you like it did me. I wound up taking it apart and checking everything out and rebuilding it but I could never figure the darn thing out and wound up trashing it for the less demanding craftsman DA.

I've quickly found out with air tools you get what you pay for. Sometimes it really isn't worth it to try and save yourself 30.00 especially when the tool only lasts all but 1-2 hours of usage. In my opinion/experience with this sander is they might as well label it a D Sander Disposable Sander instead of a DA.

Also: I did oil this sander prior to first use, I did not drop it, bang it, or place it under any excessive stress during its short time in operation. Don't think it's my error.

I already had one C & H sander that I have had for years. The instructions warned against dropping it. I dropped it. It didn't work right. I ordered this new one. While waiting for the new one, I accidentally dropped the first one again. It started working correctly again. Now I have two sanders. Which is useful with different grits of sandpaper on each.

I do not use this to make a living, but so far they have been really good sanders. Don't drop them though.

Although I did not get to use it much, it seems to work perfectly. Unfortunately my compressor was not strong enough to keep it running at a good speed for an extended period of time, which forced me to use and electric sander. I am sure if I had a better compressor that I would have been very happy with this sander.

The product works as advertized. However, it did break after using on a roofing nailer at about 115 bundels of shingles. They just wear out. This is the only one I've ever used so don't know how it works againts another brands. Sure makes it eaiser then a straight connected hose.

- NorthStar Belt Drive Single-Stage Portable Air Compressor - 2 HP, 20-Gallon, Vertical, 5.5 CFM

- NorthStar Belt Drive Single-Stage Portable Air Compressor - 2 HP, 20-Gallon, Vertical, 5.5 CFM
  • 2 HP 115V/230V 15/7.5 Amp dual voltage induction motor
  • 2-cylinder cast iron single-stage pump
  • Delivers 5.5 CFM @ 90 PSI; 7.1 CFM @ 40 PSI
  • Copper finned inter- and after-coolers provide effective heat dissipation and less moisture
  • Ball bearings on each side of crankshaft for smooth running and durability

The NorthStar Compressor seems to working fine so far. It has been only 4 months. I replaced my Craftsman compressor with this one. The Craftsman compressors are all made in "China." In other words, will not last more than 1 year. Mine stopped working after 6 months. The parts are marked up SUPER HIGH. For example a power cord is $50!! A thin gasket should cost no more than $5 is $22!

Amazon uses a local shipping company here in California. They are terrible. They are unprofessional & refused to deliver the compressor on the specified day. I called them to will call the compressor. They knew I was going to pick it up & I had to wait 1 hour for them to find it.

This is after they said they had NO TRUCKS going in my direction (about 30 minutes from their local)and I would have to wait 3 days.

My iwata studio series finally bit the dust.... had enough to try this out so I went for it! I'm a professional artist and have sworn by iwata for years... after just experimenting with the XT for a few minutes I was blown away by how comfortable the pistol grip and dead accurate double action. The grex compressor isn't silent but it's not ear piercing loud either... steady flow of air and very little vibration... the quick connection is great and I bought 2 adapters for my iwata brushes and fit perfect... I was impressed by the design fit and function of all the grex products I received... I highly recommend grex to artists of all skill levels.

Campbell Hausfeld HVLP Turbine Paint Sprayer - 4 PSI, 0.06 GPM, Model# HV2002

Campbell Hausfeld HVLP Turbine Paint Sprayer - 4 PSI, 0.06 GPM, Model# HV2002
  • 2-stage turbine assist HVLP paint sprayer (no compressor needed)
  • 54 CFM
  • Durable construction delivers consistent coverage
  • Metal pattern adjustment for round, vertical, or horizontal spray patterns
  • Metal air flow control can adjust pattern from 1/4in. to 6in.

I purchased the CH HVLP sprayer as an alternative to a compressor plus gun setup for spraying clear finishes as well as interior trim paint. The previous CH products that I had purchased had been great. This one has been a great disappointment.

First, the transfer of material to the surface being painted appears to be about as inefficient as a normal high pressure sprayer. This is especially true when spraying higher viscosity coatings that require more airflow in order to move them. The second issue is the fineness of the spray pattern. This unit produces a pretty rough and uneven pattern compared with other units. The air supply hose is a real handicap as it is not only too stiff for easy use, but it has a really nasty chemical smell that just doesn't go away.

Summary, I have a CH compressor, an airless sprayer and this HVLP. I can reccommend the first two without hesitation. This last is just not worth it. Get a Fuji, Apollo or perhaps the top of the line Wagner. They are all $500 or more, but at least they do the job.

I am so impressed with this product and I too am surprised by the not so great reviews. I have a feeling that the people who don't like this product are people who have significant experience with other paint sprayers . . . People who like to thin the paint, tweak knobs, make adjustments, etc., etc., etc. This is a ($) paint sprayer. . . it doesn't have a lot of knobs and whistles and probably isn't very forgiving in some respects (compared to ($) paint sprayers).

This was my first time ever using a paint sprayer. I read through the manual, (especially the part where it specifically says to not mess with anything), poured in the paint . . . and I was off spraying (I didn't need to thin the paint!). There is only one knob to adjust the volume of paint that is coming out . . that's all that I needed. It worked great and the finish is smooth and even (I painted my veneer kitchen cabinets using a BIN primer and an Alkyd based semi-gloss).

This is the perfect paint sprayer for the do it yourselfer. Just RTFM and don't mess with anything. Also, pick paints that don't require thinning (the one's I used specifically stated that you shouldn't thin it . . . RTFM)

I own this sprayer and it is not woth the money. You cannot get a fine spray pattern from this unit. The air cap is poorly machined and the turbine does not supply enough CFM. Spend more money and get an Accuspray system.

I started a started a project of painting my kitchen cabinets with rollers and brushes. I had 2/3rds of the primer on and just gave up, it was too time-consuming and difficult. I logged on, found this paint sprayer and have just completed the project. I've never used a paint sprayer before but found this very easy to use. Only one knob to control the flow and a trigger to spray. Very easy. The paint applied beautifully and it looks professional. I was worried about runs in the paint, but it rarely happened; only if the sprayer got too close. I used if for both latex and oil-based enamel. At first the oil-based paint would not come out. I discovered I was not thinning the paint enough. It is easy to disassemble and clean. I am never going back to brushes and rollers.

I use this sprayer for a number of household projects: varnishing, painting, etc., and haven't encountered the trouble the other users have. I'm sure there are better HVLP sprayers, but at twice the price? Unthinned latex is applied rough, but it smooths as it dries, and thinned latex is applied plenty smooth -much smoother than a brush. Perhaps if you need a sprayer for high gloss finishes, you may need better, but for semigloss trimwork and varnishes, this does the trick just fine for me.

NEW AIR COMPRESSOR HOSES 25' feet - BRASS NEW TOOLS

NEW AIR COMPRESSOR HOSES 25' feet - BRASS NEW TOOLSIt is good price and goods, good fit for my air compressor. it is more expensive in the homedepot, good

The hoses I received, 5 in one order, all show well made fittings and they do rotate smoothly. However, the description stated the hose was very flexible. This actually is a very stiff hose and retains its coiled "memory" even when warmed up. This makes it hard to maneuver and "coily" to make up a word. Again, well made and promptly delivered, but just too rigid to be convenient for hand tools.
