[Heathkit] Paint gun for boat anchors

[jeremy-ca]

As someone who has been painting custom cars, hot rods, etc for over 50 
years both as a hobby and professionally I take strong issue with your 
incorrect statements.

HVLP gives more complete atomization than an old fashioned high pressure 
siphon gun. Therefore the finish is smoother, runs are virtually eliminated 
and a lot of paint is saved. HVLP takes less skill to become proficient as a 
result.

As far as that ad I have no problem understanding it. Maybe I was just 
taught better reading comprehension in school.
