Default Devilbiss Tekna Prolite Question

I'm looking for some info about the Tekna Prolite. I recently added one to my collection. My question is... it came with two air caps, a TE10 and a TE20. There's no notable difference to my eye. The 10 states it has a max inlet pressure of 35 psi and the 20 states a max inlet pressure of 26 psi. Which one is best to use for clears? Thanks in advance, Jason

I am not a pro but I have this gun and love it. I have only used the TE10 so far but am going to try the TE20 next time around. The 20 gives smaller droplet size. Check out the 2nd page of the brocure on the link below. The 10 allows you to shot with a little less CFM 9 versus 12. Did you get the metal paint cup or the DeKups. I use the DeKups and it makes cleanup a breeze.
