Hi all :

Having neglected my home far too long, and being a neophyte at painting, I'm
looking for some recommendations on paint sprayers.  I'd like something that
will handle fairly thick latex paint, with a minimum of hassle.  Tried one
of those hand=held buzzy things many years ago, it shortly went in the
trash.  Have they gotten any better ?
I do have a modest air compressor, realistically it'll probably do 4 scfm @
40 psi which would run a low volume paint gun; but I'm assuming that's not
what I want for spraying latex ?
I do need to do many irregular surfaces, so a roller is out of the question.
Does that leave the high pressure  professional airless units as my only
choice ?

All opinions and anecdotes appreciated.

TIA
Randall
