Wasted $200 on a cheap paint sprayer from Home Depot

I bought that $200 Wagner sprayer for a Ford F-150 job in Austin, and it clogged up after 10 minutes of use. Took me 3 hours to clean it out every time I used it, and the finish came out all orange-peeled. I ended up borrowing a friend's $500 Sata gun and finished the truck in half the time with zero issues. Has anyone else had bad luck with budget sprayers? I'm looking at buying a used one instead now.

Did you even thin the paint right?

Thinning doesn't fix cheap gun internals, just masks the real problem.
