I'm kind of in a pinch here lol. I'm repairing my wife's car after it met a reciever on a brand new F150. It's a 2002 cavalier, nothing fancy, just would like it to be all one color. I have all body work done and now time for paint. I can't seem to find my HVLP fittings and apparently in my town the parts stores have never heard of HVLP fittings... can I use a non HVLP fitting with my gun? If so what adjustments would I have to make to make this work? Ive already tried the search function on here and maybe I'm just blind lol

You'll be fine with normal air line connectors.

Spending a little more on Hi-flow fittings might be a better choice than, say, the cheap Harbor Freight fittings. You will experience much less pressure loss.
