I finished shooting my F100 yesterday after work with my Devilbiss. I went to work today and had paint on my hands. A lady laughed and said her dad used to have a body shop and paint.
After work her husband had a bag of paint guns for me.
One was an original Optima 800I in unused condition. With a 1.4 tip (my go to) I'm grateful for the other items (one was a bottomfed HP popular mechanics gun id never seen before) but my mind was blown by that piece.
I tried to pay for it but they told me to either give them 37,000 dollars or take them for free.
Just wanted to share.
sounds great, you never know when good luck will find you!
So did you give them the 37,000 dollars?
Great story. Sounds like they wanted them to go to a good home.
Its cool how things work out sometimes.
How long until they ask you to paint something?
They are really nice people If they had something they wanted painted I would gladly help them out. However I think they just saw a need and cleaned up their garage at the same time.
I love stories like this. I have often done the same thing. It's kinda like paying it forward.
That was very cool of them. Congrats on the new toys!
