I use the HF cheapies for a lot of things, especially POR15 or when I'm painting tractors or putting polyurethane on wood. I don't know about the quality being less than it used to be because I bought several one time when they were on sale for $7.99 ea and I still have some. After putting something like POR15 through one I just chunk it in the garbage when I'm done. I have a "good" gun that I use on vehicles but off the top of my head I can't remember the brand. I'm an amateur so I can't tell a big difference in the quality of the finish but the good gun has a much wider pattern so I can cover a lot of area quickly; as long as my compressor can keep up.
