please help with HVLP sprayer question

1) I am wondering if you can get the same "car type" glossy finish with a
HVLP sprayer that you can with a compressor air sprayer??

2) For that matter can you use it to spray "car type" paints & clears
coats??

3) Do people use HVLP spayers to paint cars??

I have a friend that used his compressor sprayer and car paint to metalic
paint & clear coat some wood cabinets in his home office and it looks
AWESOME. I would love to do the same thing but I would rather use a HVLP
sprayer if I could achive the same type of finish.

Thank you in advance for any help regarding this matter!!

Peace,
Duke

HVLP was invented so California body shops could meet the state pollution
standards.
