Hi Pete, thanks so much for that, me and my family appreciate it very much. You have a big kind heart obviously.💚 On the spraying front, bought the Quickshot. Wow! Great piece of kit,👍 Thanks again. Allan.
You’re very welcome my friend 🙏💚 ..Wow great news on the Ultra QuickShot 👏👏 I’m aiming for a video on Sunday morning that will cover some hints and tips (and when the time comes a pump replacement - obviously not for a long time) ..Great purchase Allan, it’s a wonderful unit, I’m excited for you.. any questions, always feel free to reach out 🙏 regards Pete
I’ve been using the ff tips for a few years without a pressure gauge. I turn the airless up until the fingers disappear and then turn it up just a tad more to break the paint up a little more. I use the 208 on metal door jams.
Very helpful video Pete thank you very much for making these videos I really appreciate them very much and I use what I learn on your channel, at my work and for my clients, all the time. Thanks again. Please keep them coming.
Love your videos Pete. Very informative and entertaining. The lower tip size needing more pressure to eliminate tails always baffles me. My logic is smaller orifice, less pressure. Good lesson. Thanks
You’re so kind, really appreciate the feedback.. More pressure, especially with a .006” Vs .008” because you’re forcing paint particles / pigments through an orifice size approx half the size of a human hair 👍😄 Really appreciate the support, keep in touch.. regards Pete
Great question 👍 the UQS minimum tip support is .008, however with the right low viscosity / spray only product, a 106 works very well as long as you don’t over-pressurise - a 208 also works extremely well and is ‘easier’ to use (no risk of over-pressurising, a .006 tip requires more pressure).. so I personally would use either, otherwise go with a 208, it’s a great tip 👍👍👍 Regards Pete
@@PaintHQ Thanks Pete you're the man!! Which waterbased paints do you prefer using on woodwork when spraying with these mind of tips? I don't see you mention much about this in your videos so just wondering? Thanks.
Hi Pete, watch a couple of your vids. Amazing! What I do not fully understand, instead of increasing the pressure on the 106 tip, would it not be possible to thin down the paint? I am thinking about buying a new tip - but as hobby, my budget is somewho limited - i can't get a 106, 108, 110 etc...
Hey buddy, thank you for watching my videos 🙏 you’re spot on in your thinking.. although a 106 (.006”) is for very low viscosity paint and still you’re forcing material through something less the size of a human hair 👍 a 108 can be a little hard to control.. to buy one tip for small work and be more controlled, I’d probably go with a 208 - yes a wider fan (4”), the wider overspray is worth the compromise (unless the low viscosity material really will go through a 106, without tip blockage, it’s difficult to say without testing).. hope this helps my friend.. regards Pete 💙💯
This was helpful. As I said in other comments… I primarily will be painting furniture. I think the 106 or 108 will be the perfect tip when painting stiles and rails on dressers and thinner legs on nightstands and end tables. I always feel like I’m wasting a lot of paint because my fan with is too large. I really think the Graco QUickShot is going to my most favorite. Sorry for blowing up your comments. I’m home sick and binge watching your channel. LOL
Hi Pete, great vids. Ive bought some of the paint you mentioned in your other video Akzo Nobel enamel top coat. Also bought some 206 and 208 FFLP Graci tips to try. I'll let you know how i get on as Ive got full house of skirts, arcs, doors and stairs to do. Fingers crossed ill get much less runs this time around. You are very kind with your time and advice answering questions for everyone. Keep up the good work.
Hi Ben, great news - I wish you all the very best with your latest spraying venture 💙 ..Move relatively quick to begin with, as you get a feel of how the low viscosity product lays down.. then gauge how ‘slow’ you can move to produce the ultimate coat, that dries down beautifully smooth.. also, you will get some dust from the fine atomisation, use a microfibre cloth / vac between coats to remove any dust that could ‘interfere’ with the spraying 👍 good luck my friend, keep in touch 💙💯 regards Pete
Hi Pete, going to be painting my own property soon using the sprayman GX21. Could you list the the masking paper, drop sheets, tape etc you use and also some affordable paint for walls ceilings and a satin based combo or system to go over oil based woodwork. I’ve watched a lot of your videos but I need a good solid list to go ahead and order off 🫨 it can get a little tricky to keep up. I hope you can provide this information and will be greatly appreciated 🫣🤞🏼 cheers and take care.
Hello my friend, apologies for delay, I will always get back to you.. happy to help and advise if I can.. I recommend Kip masking products, if you search for “Kip Masking” in Amazon, you’ll see these products that I use.. -Kip Washi-Tec 238 Premium.. is the gold washi tape I use on fully cured surfaces, when spraying for super sharp lines.. Then this is the low tack / ‘purple’ sensitive Washi.. I use to mask walls when spraying the ceiling on the last day.. -Kip Washi-Tec 209 Kip Masking-Tec 3804 (48mm), I use for a cost effective crepe masking tape for non-critical lines.. Then the 2 main plastic film and papers I use.. -Kip Masking-Tec 232 Film (2.6m) -Kip Masking-Tec 234 Paper (30cm) Regarding woodwork.. I use a lot of these products for day to day internal joinery.. they are low viscosity, waterborne industrial 1K products.. spray very easily, no thinning at very low pressure ..being low viscosity, I use .008 tips.. so a 208 / 308... WP136 Water Based Primer / Edge Sealer holmanpaints.co.uk/interior-wood/171-akzo-nobel-WP136-highbuild-waterbased-primer-edge-sealer.html For the satin topcoat.. AkzoNobel Aqualit (Supercryl) Waterborne Enamel Topcoat holmanpaints.co.uk/interior-wood/169-akzo-nobel-aqualit-waterborne-enamel-topcoat.html ..you get a beautiful cabinet like satin finish ..and very cost effective, especially in 5 litre cans.. Comes in white, then if needing tinting both primer and top coat can be colour matched off any colour chart.. I’ve used Holmans for years, the Holmans team are all super helpful.. Can be delivered next day if required.. If this helps at all, Holmans have a 5% discount code, across all their range.. 👉 Use code PAINTHQ Keep in touch my friend.. regards Pete
What tip would you use to spray dulux water based satinwood? I've just got the graco quick shot and we're painting architraves, door frames and doors, and using about 1.5 ltr of paint just on 1 door and frame 1 coat. Getting a few runs aswell
Hello my friend.. you need to slow down the material flow by using a smaller orifice tip.. an .008 tip such as a 208 or 308 should work with your WB product.. which tip did you use, I’m guessing a larger orifice tip to spray the quantity of paint you mention .. moving much much quicker will also help not lay on as much 👍 Just little tweaks to your setup and technique.. you’ll get there my friend 💙💯 regards Pete
Appreciate you watching.. no, nothing on the carpet.. the carpet was protected using a fleece / plastic backed dust sheet and masked using Kip masking products 👍
Pete love the channel. I have two of the Ultra handhelds and use them every day. Question, if I were springs spindles and want to use Benjamin Moore advance and 106 tip how far would you thin out that product?
Hi Brian, really appreciate your support and kind words 🙏 ..I fear BM Advance is a little too thick in paint viscosity terms for .006 tips - .006 such as the 106 suit low viscosity primers / top coats and clear lacquers (free flowing / spray only materials), whereas BM Advance is more thixotropic (can also be brushed / rolled) - typically you would use a .010, but BM are quality pigment paints - it may go through a .008 - I’d be inclined to recommend trying a 208 for spindles - a bit wider, but much more manageable.. I think you would get paint runs with a 108 🙈 Hope this makes sense and helps a little.. always feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to help - let me know how you get on, regards Pete 💙
Hello my friend.. Kip use innovative Washi technology in their professional range of masking tapes, the parent company Shurtape (the company behind FrogTape) only make tape for themselves, Kip is a product range I most definitely recommend 🔴💯
That's a very good question.. I have some experience testing a TriTech Ultra 208 Vs a Graco FF LP 208 and the Ultra required much higher pressure (above double if I recall).. Whereas the FF LP was at 900 psi.. with lower pressure you get less overspray, material waste and tip wear.. hope this helps my friend, regards Pete
@@PaintHQ Thank you, didn’t know that, usually I am using Ciret products and have not been disappointed with. I’m talking about sensitive range of tapes when crispy lines are desired. Cheers
Sure, here’s the 2 main tapes I use.. this is the premium ‘gold’ Washi for fully cured surfaces.. I use to mask woodwork and trim, when spraying the walls..

I'm looking to buy the quickshot for painting small pieces of mdf. Do you think this would be a suitable machine? I make miniature kitchens and am not sure if this would work for such an application. Do you think using the smallest tip at low pressure would be suitable to paint quickly? Any advice would be highly appreciated.
Hello my friend.. I’m confident the QuickShot will be a good investment for you.. but to be sure - how miniature are your projects?.. .008” Graco tips work very well, even .006”, such as FFLP 106 and 206, if spraying low viscosity materials like in this video.. I link to the products in the video description - AkzoNobel WP136 (now known as 099) works extremely well on mdf, sealing edges - quick denib when dry and maybe a further high build coat and the mdf is silky smooth 👌
Thanks for your response. A kitchen is roughly 30cm wide and 19cm high. I appreciate your help. Is it possible in any way to use thicker paints with a narrower spray pattern? Many thanks.
@ArtfluentCreations Certainly airless is the way to go when spraying thicker / higher viscosity materials - But, you will loose some of the control, and if you was spraying a thicker material through a narrow 2” fan (110, 112), the trade off is a heavy coating.. correct me if I’m wrong, is an airbrush / airspray setup suited for spraying miniature / model size projects ?.. although airspray is more suited to very low viscosity / thin materials.. happy to help any way I can 👍 regards Pete
I do have an airbrush but having to thin the paint so much and the spray being so small with hardly any power takes far too long. I'm looking for something that can coat as quickly as possible, but not too heavily, so probably will have to thin the paint, but hopefully not as much as an airbrush. I would be spraying a lot of these kitchens at once in order to produce faster, so I suppose a larger orifice wouldnt be too much of an issue. Does this have similar control as a hvlp, do you think, as I was considering one of those but don't have the space for a compressor. I appreciate your help.
That's a very good question.. I have some experience testing a TriTech Ultra 208 Vs a Graco FF LP 208 and the Ultra required much higher pressure (above double if I recall)..

Hola Pete. Qué grata sorpresa el leerte en español. 2 puntos: Ya probaste las LP Amarillas? Has colocado el manómetro entre la manguera y la pistola, para ver si la lectura de PSI es diferente? La lectura de PSI debe de ser más real en esa posición. Como siempre, un gran video de tu gran trabajo. Best regards, Brother. Enrique.
hola hermano, siempre es bueno saber de ti, Enrique. Todavía no he probado los consejos de Neon LP, debería poder mostrar algunos en el canal pronto. puntas LP verdes, es solo el cambio de color y una numeración más clara para mostrar una diferencia entre las puntas LP y FFLP verdes 👍... buen punto sobre la ubicación del manómetro, no, no lo he probado, tendré que intentarlo... gracias por compartir la información, eres un diamante.. cuídate amigo.. saludos Pete 💙
Question. I have a graco magnum prox19. It said that start at 1500 psi to 3000psi. So..if u are using 900 psi ..this mean i cant use this tips? Or there is something i am doing wrong?. I tried today. But i put 3/4 of the psi and worked. Then..is i put half..doesnt work well.. And in a 1/4 of pression kinda works.. I dont know really what i am doing. I mean. Which psi i should use my machine? Or i cant use it? Thanks
@@PaintHQ learning all the time buddy the fact the data sheet for Dulux satin Wood recommended a 6.16 tip was a real eye 👁️ opener used a 5.15 thinned it by 20% and got good results just as well they where panels any detail work with a 5.15 May have caused an issue or two 😂
Pete , beautiful work brother from another mother .dropping that glass man . Looked smoother than butter . I had 2 questions for you if you have the time to get back to me I’d really appreciate it . #1 ) you said you liked the reduced flow…… I know it’s pretty straight forward and everyone prob understood but I didn’t . Could you explain what you meant by that #2 ) you had stated in a video a while back that trimtech tips were not fine finish I believe correct me if I’m wrong . I know they have a tip labeled fine finish but I think you were saying they have to be sprayed at the normal pressure so are their “ fine finish “ tips not low pressures
Ah my brother, appreciate the kind words, very much appreciated 🙏 ..good questions, it’s my goal to create informative videos for everyone to be able to understand.. flow rate refers to how much in litres or gallons is sprayed per minute (if spraying water).. it’s the 2nd part of the numbering on the tip that indicates this .. #06, #08, for example 106, 108 ..the orifice size ..so a 106 has ‘less flow’ will let out less paint Vs a 108 ..this is what’s also meant by ‘gaining control’ or ‘ultimate control’ ..you potentially will be able to move the gun slower using a 106 Vs a 108 ..less risk of a paint run ..However it’s important to note, the viscosity determines how small a tip orifice you can use.. so .06 and .08 tips are for low viscosity, very thin, free flowing paints (usually spray only).. thicker finishing paints that can also be used with a brush / roller usually suit a .10 or above 👍 Regarding TriTech Ultra Fine Finish, sure they are a fine finish tip producing fine atomisation.. they (by design) are not low pressure.. which is ok, I guess it’s down to preference in terms how you ‘like to spray’.. I’ve previously done a test using 208 tips and if I recall Graco FFLP tips were half the pressure (900 psi) spraying low viscosity waterborne material.. so Graco releasing new 106 and 206 (and 408) sizes, is pretty awesome if you’re a fan of low pressure spraying 💙 ..hope this helps my friend, always feel free to reach out, I’m happy to try and help.. sorry about the essay 😆 ..regards Pete
Hello guys this week mt graco coming i just want to ask u i am furniture maker ussaily tv unit wardrobw and kitchen which tips number its best for cabinets and cupboards i am new in airless thx
Great to hear from you buddy.. depending on paint viscosity, I’d look to use a FFLP 208 / 308 👍 You have a reduced flow Vs a 310 and will gain more control.. a 310 (again depending on viscosity) could lay down too much material.. I tend to use a FFLP 208 or 308 in almost all cases 👍 Regards Pete
I brought one a few years ago but there next to useless my friend to much paint flow you would have to move so fast not to get runs you would loose all control I found a lovely place for mind at the back of the shed and to the best of my knowledge it’s still there give the 1.06 a go 👍🏻

I'm looking for something that can coat as quickly as possible, but not too heavily, so probably will have to thin the paint, but hopefully not as much as an airbrush. I would be spraying a lot of these kitchens at once in order to produce faster, so I suppose a larger orifice wouldnt be too much of an issue.
Does this have similar control as a hvlp, do you think, as I was considering one of those but don't have the space for a compressor.
I appreciate your help.
Are u using acrylic latex or oil base? Great video😊
Thank you my friend 🙏 It’s an acrylic base.. a fast drying 1K industrial waterborne primer by AkzoNobel 👍 Thanks for the support buddy.. regards Pete
Now thats a job well done.
Thank you buddy 💯
What about 206, 208 Tritech tips on cabinets painting?
That's a very good question.. I have some experience testing a TriTech Ultra 208 Vs a Graco FF LP 208 and the Ultra required much higher pressure (above double if I recall).. Whereas the FF LP was at 900 psi.. with lower pressure you get less overspray, material waste and tip wear.. hope this helps my friend, regards Pete
About time Graco it took em so long to bring the 06 . I was buying tritech tips only.
I hear what you’re saying brother.. the introduction of the Graco FF LP 106 / 206 and the ability to spray at very low pressure is awesome 💙💯
First class
Thank you so much, hope you’re keeping well my friend 💙
Necestito una boquilla 106 para lacados 🙏🏽 estoy en España. Gracias 💯

Are u in the USA.whwre are u buying it paint SW or BM
Hey buddy.. I’m in the UK.. I do appreciate and admire the coatings industry in the US, the products and availability is vast 👏👏👏🇺🇸❤️
Hola Pete.
Qué grata sorpresa el leerte en español.
2 puntos:
Ya probaste las LP Amarillas?
Has colocado el manómetro entre la manguera y la pistola, para ver si la lectura de PSI es diferente?
La lectura de PSI debe de ser más real en esa posición.
Como siempre, un gran video de tu gran trabajo.
Best regards, Brother.
Enrique.
hola hermano, siempre es bueno saber de ti, Enrique. Todavía no he probado los consejos de Neon LP, debería poder mostrar algunos en el canal pronto. puntas LP verdes, es solo el cambio de color y una numeración más clara para mostrar una diferencia entre las puntas LP y FFLP verdes 👍... buen punto sobre la ubicación del manómetro, no, no lo he probado, tendré que intentarlo... gracias por compartir la información, eres un diamante.. cuídate amigo.. saludos Pete 💙
@@PaintHQ Hola Hermano.
Estaré al pendiente de tu vídeo sobre el cambio de posición del manómetro.
Te mando un abrazo.
Question. I have a graco magnum prox19. It said that start at 1500 psi to 3000psi. So..if u are using 900 psi ..this mean i cant use this tips? Or there is something i am doing wrong?. I tried today. But i put 3/4 of the psi and worked. Then..is i put half..doesnt work well..
And in a 1/4 of pression kinda works..
I dont know really what i am doing. I mean. Which psi i should use my machine? Or i cant use it? Thanks
In the video he adjusted the material keep practicing with the pressure after you’ve adjusted until you get the right spray pattern with no tails.
Sure I have a 106 buddy but have never used it may give it a try with the Akzo Nobel 👍🏻
Hey Simon.. sprays beautifully my friend, let me know how you get on my friend 💙
@@PaintHQ learning all the time buddy the fact the data sheet for Dulux satin Wood recommended a 6.16 tip was a real eye 👁️ opener used a 5.15 thinned it by 20% and got good results just as well they where panels any detail work with a 5.15 May have caused an issue or two 😂
Thanks for sharing brother, you’re a diamond 👏👏👏
The tension in that video😂
Haha 😂 sorry about that my friend 🙈 regards Pete
Pete , beautiful work brother from another mother .dropping that glass man . Looked smoother than butter . I had 2 questions for you if you have the time to get back to me I’d really appreciate it .
#1 ) you said you liked the reduced flow…… I know it’s pretty straight forward and everyone prob understood but I didn’t . Could you explain what you meant by that
#2 ) you had stated in a video a while back that trimtech tips were not fine finish I believe correct me if I’m wrong . I know they have a tip labeled fine finish but I think you were saying they have to be sprayed at the normal pressure so are their “ fine finish “ tips not low pressures
Ah my brother, appreciate the kind words, very much appreciated 🙏 ..good questions, it’s my goal to create informative videos for everyone to be able to understand.. flow rate refers to how much in litres or gallons is sprayed per minute (if spraying water).. it’s the 2nd part of the numbering on the tip that indicates this .. #06, #08, for example 106, 108 ..the orifice size ..so a 106 has ‘less flow’ will let out less paint Vs a 108 ..this is what’s also meant by ‘gaining control’ or ‘ultimate control’ ..you potentially will be able to move the gun slower using a 106 Vs a 108 ..less risk of a paint run ..However it’s important to note, the viscosity determines how small a tip orifice you can use.. so .06 and .08 tips are for low viscosity, very thin, free flowing paints (usually spray only).. thicker finishing paints that can also be used with a brush / roller usually suit a .10 or above 👍
Regarding TriTech Ultra Fine Finish, sure they are a fine finish tip producing fine atomisation.. they (by design) are not low pressure.. which is ok, I guess it’s down to preference in terms how you ‘like to spray’.. I’ve previously done a test using 208 tips and if I recall Graco FFLP tips were half the pressure (900 psi) spraying low viscosity waterborne material.. so Graco releasing new 106 and 206 (and 408) sizes, is pretty awesome if you’re a fan of low pressure spraying 💙 ..hope this helps my friend, always feel free to reach out, I’m happy to try and help.. sorry about the essay 😆 ..regards Pete
Hello guys this week mt graco coming i just want to ask u i am furniture maker ussaily tv unit wardrobw and kitchen which tips number its best for cabinets and cupboards i am new in airless thx
Great to hear from you buddy.. depending on paint viscosity, I’d look to use a FFLP 208 / 308 👍 You have a reduced flow Vs a 310 and will gain more control.. a 310 (again depending on viscosity) could lay down too much material.. I tend to use a FFLP 208 or 308 in almost all cases 👍 Regards Pete
@@PaintHQ thx mate u helpfully
@yavuzhocaoglu8568 🙏💙💯
Hi there. I bought a 110 tip, but I am scared to use it because of the flow rate. Could you suggest when a 110 might be suitable?
I brought one a few years ago but there next to useless my friend to much paint flow you would have to move so fast not to get runs you would loose all control I found a lovely place for mind at the back of the shed and to the best of my knowledge it’s still there give the 1.06 a go 👍🏻
I use a 210. For 2 inch door trim..with cardboard behind to catch over spray
@BK-gc1jm Thanks for sharing, great input buddy.. regards Pete 💙💯
I didn't know that they have the 106 tip i always use 108
What paint were you spraying on the bannister and spindles?
It’s the AkzoNobel products that I’m a fan of my friend 👍
@@PaintHQ thanks! Which one specifically for the most durability?
I'm after something that can even be painted on the treads?
How can China buy your products?
thank
You’re very welcome kind sir 💙
