Anest Iwata Produce Some Of The Finest Spraying Equipment Available. We Are A Proud Stockist Of The Anest Iwata Spray Gun Range
Introducing the Anest Iwata paint gun range
Anest Iwata is most famous for their excellent range of professional-grade spray guns which are trusted and used by thousands of people around the world every day. Here we are going to look at 4 of their most popular Anest Iwata paint spray gun models to help you decide which one is right for you.
Iwata WS400 Supernova
Iwata LS400 Supernova
Iwata W400 Bellaria
Anest Iwata WS400 Supernova Spray Gun
The WS400 Supernova is an Anest Iwata spray gun which is incredibly efficient, ergonomically designed Anest Iwata paint gun that is suitable for use with water-based paint, and high solid clear coat paint.
For example, the paint cup and air cap have been specifically designed with an advanced mechanism which allows them to be unscrewed with a smaller number of rotations. And the control devices have been ergonomically designed to be easy to operate – even with a gloved hand.
But the Supernova is not just ergonomically brilliant, this is a seriously high-performance piece of equipment. Thanks to the design of the paint nipple and cup the Supernova has a lower centre of gravity which produces a much more stable gun. Finally, the dedicated nozzle needle allows the operator to choose thin-layer flat patterns to get the perfect results in every situation.
We know that the most important thing about choosing any tool is its ability to get the job done properly…
But we need to talk about the appearance of the supernova for a second.
This is probably the single most attractive spray gun we have ever held in our hands. Anest Iwata enlisted the help of the Italian design house Pininfarina to turn this high-performance product into a thing of beauty.
This Anest Iwata paint spray gun has been polished to a mirror shine on the entirety of its body (which is beautifully accented by reflective, but tasteful gold control devices). It looks so good; that you may be afraid to actually use it.
Anest Iwata LS400 Supernova HVLP Spray Gun
The Iwata LS400 HVLP Supernova Spray Gun is a natural partner to the WS400 Supernova above. It was also designed by Italian design house Pininfarina and looks equally as beautiful as the WS400. It has some slight differences, and the gold accents are a polished metallic green on the LS400 instead of the gold on the WS400.
But as with the WS400, the LS400 is not just a pretty face and packs some serious performance into its deceptively beautiful appearance. It provides an incredibly consistent droplet size, which is combined with a Supernova flat even pattern. Like the WS400 it has the same low centre of gravity that provides almost unimaginable stability and balance (regardless of cup size).
The combination of these features results in a device that facilitates the reduction of many of the common issues that operators can encounter on a day-to-day basis.
Simply put – this is a high-performance Iwata paint spray gun that gets the job done.
LS400 Supernova For Base Coats
There are three different versions of the LS400 available – but they all have a stainless steel fluid passage, so they are equally at home when dealing with solvent-borne, or waterborne materials.
- The standard LS400 is only designed for use with a base coat and has the smallest droplet size.
- The LS400 ET is an HVLP system that can be used with a standard base coat and produces large droplets, and a wet finish.
- The thickest base coats will require the use of the LS400 ETS HVLP system, it has the largest droplet size of any of the Supernova range and applies the wettest finishes.
Anest Iwata W400 Bellaria Spray Gun
The W400 Bellaria is the new and improved version of the iconic original W400. Bellaria literally translates from Italian into English as “beautiful air”, and with the feature list of this product – we think it’s an appropriate name.
The Bellaria has improved upon the W400 in several ways. One of the most substantial upgrades has been made to the LV2 air cap. The Bellaria has added two brand new caps that feature the same trademarked “flat and thin” technology as the other products on this page to ensure you get the perfect finish in all situations.
This is an Anest Iwata paint gun that gives the operator maximum control over the fluid build as it only uses 250 litres per minute of air consumption. When combined with features like the stainless steel fluid passage, and the fully responsive trigger it is easy to see why this a product worthy of anyone’s consideration.
This is an incredibly versatile lightweight Anest Iwata paint spray gun that can be used with most paint types, basecoats, and clearcoats.
As the Bellaria is an LVLP spray gun it is better suited to MS clears and basecoats – but will work just as well with HS clears if you add a little bit more reducer than normal.
Anest Iwata W300 Compact Spray Gun
The W300 has a very respectable low air consumption rate of just 190 litres a minute and has an incredibly high transfer efficiency (in some cases reaching 90%). Like all the other products on this page, it has the trademarked “flat and thin” spray pattern nozzle and it has a stainless steel fluid passage.
The stainless steel passage means that the W300 can be used with both water-based and solvent-based materials and will be able to perform in most applications with ease.
This is a lightweight Anest Iwata paint gun for people who want to reduce the strain on their arms, or for people that need to twist and turn to work at various angles regularly. This Anest Iwata spray gun is most commonly used by operators in the automotive refinishing and motorcycle repair industries but is built well enough to be usable in most LVLP situations.
The W300 has been tested and approved by many of the major paint manufacturers, and it gets the seal of approval from us as well.
