After your recommendation a few months ago and watching this video I finally got round to getting one of these today. Not done spraying since college but after watching your videos and a bit of practice hopefully everything will come back.I think this will open a few new doors for me. Keep up there great work with the videos they're all brilliant.
Lovely words Michael. That means a lot. I've felt a bit disheartened with YT these last few months... You saying that makes it worth it
:)
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator what teeth whitning do you use lol, ill buy some
@@sunshinechild-sv9kc what ever the dentist sells. They said don't buy anything on line incase it acid cleaner lol
Also keep up the great work with all the information your provide 👍🏻
I just purchased this today, flipped a few items for myself with the brush and roller, enjoyed doing them, may try flipping if I can get to grips with this. Was so glad I found this vid. subscription ✔️
Thanks for this video mate! I'm useless at putting things together and doing stuff like this... This video helped me paint my mums fence. Appreciate it ❤
Glad I could help
Thankyou through your review i purchased one and i am very impressed with the sprayer, for a one handed disabled person it was easy to use and setup thankyou
Hello, i cannot get the water to come out, I'm testing with water. It's working, I know but the water just isn't coming out.
Just bought one and reading the instructions was getting me down. This video, brilliant. Thanks Phil. Will start on the fence tomorrow.
Glad it helped. It's not complicated.
Watch the video where i use it with Bedec Barn paint.
Will do. ☝
Thanks for the great videos phil.
Please like and share... Like and share ;)
I just put mine one in the bin after one use. Great for a spatter effect, regardless of how little or much I diluted the paint, but useless for anything else. I used the splatter and roll technique. I suspect you need to be a pro to use of these machines - I’ll stick to the day job!! Thanks for the video, it did help - a bit.
some paints spray better than others, what did you use?
thinner paint and getting the air flow right is key.
Dude your brilliant really liked your video very informative . Thank you 💪💪💪
Please watch more.... Need to fund new Cricket bats the kids 'need'.. so they told me.
Brought yesterday for £35 and it’s a blinder 👍. Absolutely SMASHED IT!! 20 fence panels, 3 coats - worked a dream. BOSH
How much did u have to thin the paint I'm doing 38 panels with one of these this weekend any help would be great
Fantastic video as always very helpful thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great review! Awesome!! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Phil another good one, very much like a cheap Wagner 5000 in set up , good to see the big sponsorship deal came in hope crown are providing you with a Porsche as a company car lol
I wish lol
thank you so much for this as the booklet was soooo hard to follow
Nice one Phil
What’s the cheapest one you would recommend for woodwork on new build? Just got two airless sprayers so can’t afford an expensive one atm, but the airless have a bit less control
Thanks for your video. I have just bought one based on your review. 🤞I can use it properly!
Awesome. Keep us posted how you get on.
Share and spread the word ;)
I Started out on fence panels as the finish wasn't critical. At first the thinning wasn't enough. I mixed about 2:1 and it started working well. After some adjustment, I was flying through em. Two coats in next to no time and very happy indeed. I'm planning to try spraying upvc window frames, gutters, soffits and then kitchen cabinet doors. That will be a proper test for the sprayer and a bigger test for me. Thanks again Phil👍Was going to buy something more expensive and I'm pretty confident this will do the job.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Hi again Phil, hope that you have been keeping well mate. Just a quick message to let you know I have successfully painted my bungalow! Including the window frames, soffits and gutters. It looks amazing on the whole but there are a few runs here and there when you look closely ;-) All with a £40 spray gun. It was a bit tricky taking the extension reel and gun at the top of the ladder (to get to the top of my apex), but once I got a method in place it wasn't too bad. I discovered it didn't work so well with masonry paint on a rough cast render, because I kept emptying the pot too quickly and it was a pain to keep filling it up. So , I used a roller for that. Wanted to say a big thank you for uploading the video and recommending this gun. The finish on the plastic looks like it's come straight from the factory!
@Carlos A-Chelton Hi Carlos, I'm looking at buying one of these to do similar jobs that you have been doing... do you have any tips? I'm looking at doing built in wardrobes, doors, and bedroom walls do you think this would do the job? Then also be doing fence panels and maybe even the wooden window frames. Many thanks
Have you ever thought of working for QVC? 😃 OK...on another issue. Could you recommend a cheapr gun for the Q-Tech 5?
Hi Phil, thanks for the great video! I have this but have been hours trying to set it up. Followed all instructions, paint diluted, it powers up, air flows, but when I press the lever no paint comes out. No luck adjusting the various spray settings. Can I ask does your white nozzle needle have a hole in it? Mine is sealed at the tip and I’m wondering if this is the problem! Thank you! 😊
Pulling the trigger you get air coming out?
Can you see if paint is being pulled up tye pipe in tye suction pot?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator I'm having the same problem as the above. There is paint coming out but the tiniest of bits it's pretty much useless
Has anyone tried it for doing a roof? Thoughts or advice? Loving the value for doing my walls
just purchased on what I thought was a high recommendation. Thanks
Glad I could help!
Love these little vids do you think it would be any good for spraying uPVC windows
could be worth a try ;) get your paint mix right though
Just ordered the Energer after watching your video. Being someone with arthritis of the hands I’m really looking forward to using it to do the rest of our large shed. Would you recommend it for pebble dash? ✌️👍
With the 2.5 needle set up, yes
Excellent video, well described. I have 20 fence panels and got quoted £450 to have them sprayed. £35 and a bit of paint, I'll do it myself!
But .. how much do you value your hour to do it?? ;)
It's not hard to spray panels or doors. Cheaper to do it myself. You cannot justify £450 for almost an 1.5hts hours work max and customer supplying paint. @@ProfessionalPainterDecorator
Thanks very much for your video about the energer HVLP sprayer, £35 from Screwfix, I love it. Got my best results by spraying Zinser BIN neat, pine lacquered doors (Orange) to white in 2 coats, great finish.
Good to here. :)
Zinseer BIN is pretty thick so I'm amazed you could use it neat! 👍
@@makwilson2050 BIN is like water, it's sprays out the can fine.
I came here to see how this sprayer is, but find your videos very entertaining 🤣
Are you my long lost brother as we look so much alike 🤭🤭👌
Yes we are
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator 🤭good video 👌
phil I know this is an old video but could i get a decent finish with this or something similar to paint my upvc doors and windows using kolorbond aquatek
thanks for commenting.... the more power the better, you'll spray ok.. but the other more powerful one would be better.. but still not the best for it.
It would be more suited to AllCoat of Bedec MSP, which willalos go on uPVC
Phil ive said it before and ill say it again you are far to good for this lets hope screwfix will get you a bit closer to the new Porsche for Chrismas and a team up with Mark would be great best regards from County Down
thanks ;)
Hi Phil hope you're well and love this video and I'm looking to buy this sprayer for our upcoming garden renovation, please can you tell me how much water did you add to the bedec paint before you was happy with the final result as it's bedec that Ile be using meself on my project,many thanks keep up the channel Phil great stuff kind regards
Sounds great!
Yes. This one or the other I've tried out recently would be fine.
Thinning paint.. depends on which paint. Inadd a little bit at a time till I feel it mix nicely and it runs off the mixing stick ... Not to thickly and not too thin!!
Remember... These units have two spray caps... Both are quite large compared to what I'd be using with my £1k Hvlp.
So you will be able to spray the paint thinker.
Best try it out in some card before you do your project, so you get a feel for it and see its not leaving the spray paint finish uneven cus its too thick.
If it's running... It's too thin... Or your too close and not moving the gun quick enough.
Trial and error :)
Thanks loads Phil for taking time to reply Ile do what you said it's common sense,nice bloke Ile look forward to watching your other videos thanks again
Hey, can i use varnish in these or gloss for doors and banisters etc? Quite hard to get an answer online
Hi Amanda. This sprayer has quite a large hole that the paint goes through. 2.0and 2.2 hole size.
I I were to spray varnish or gloss I'd want smaller.. 1.3 or 1.5 hole size.
I'm not saying you can't, but you may find it puts too much paint on when you turn the fan pattern to a narrower spray size... you can also turn the nob on the handle to reduce down the flow of paint.
Were you thinking water based varnish and water based gloss?
If so, you may find it does spray.. with a bit of practice on some cardboard before you do the actual 'doors' etc
I've a video using this scheduled in the next week or so.. it's already edited and set to go live... using it with Barn Paint.. with is a semi gloss finish... the results are worth watching.
Subscribed?
Press the bell so not to miss it.
Hi, Do you think I could use it to paint a wooden staircase and bannister? Thanks
Yes, absolutely
Hi Phil white emulsion paint how much do I thin?? So that white tub if I was pour that in to how much paint as I’m looking to do my whole house too to bottom. Cheers mate
depending on how thick the paint is, 10%.. and add more if youfind it's not spraying. easier to add water than take it away ;)
Mine is only spraying out really fine? I have slightly watered the paint down and changed the cap. Any ideas?
you've altered the paint flow dial?
How are you getting it to lay paint on so thick I’ve just got one and paint just seems thin and watery on the wall not sure if I thinner it to much ? Also it spraying paint out before I press trigger when i turn it on
It's not really a paint for large wall areas.
What paint have you used?
What needle size did you fit?
Looking to buy this gun to spray the pebbledash on my house. What paint would be best to buy for this or would another gun be better for that job? Thanks.
Have at look at the other one I reviewed. It's on offer at screw fix too now.
That would have more power.
You'd need to thin your masonry paint enough so it sprays well.
Or look at airless sprayers where you need less thinning
As your the man to ask could you spray Sandtex smooth masonry paint through one of these HVLP sprayers? Thanks Phil .
Yes you can, but you'd need to thin it and use the larger 2.5 Needle cap.
Airless sprayers would be better to use.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thanks Phil. Although would you recommend watering down masonry paint?
@@eezy251able only on new un painted render as the first coat.
Just bought one of these Phil,did you clean gun between coats?
No. But if then end clogs you can rinse it.
I've dropped back to this vid phil, it's been over ten years since I've used a sprayer, at the time I was spraying through a titan airless to do a lot of new builds (it was a good one back then), which sprayer do u reckon is a good all-rounder, maybe spray the occasional ceiling but mostly to do window frames and woodwork or would I need a hvlp and an airless for the ceilings
Ideal world... Both.
Depending what you want to spend.
HVLP (I've the qt5) has a lot of control.
My Gxff good for a few ceilings and also woodwork when needed.
My 495st Max² FF.. does the same as the Gxff at nearly double the price... But offers a future proof set up.
.... See my video on spraying staircase.. HVLP and Airless.
I've. Titan 440xt as well... Mainly used for banging out larger areas... Also masonry.
But it's not as powerful as the 495.
Horses for courses.
Need to work out your budget and how often you'll want to use it.
Once you get into it... You'll use it more.. whatever set up you go for.
I was looking at the gxff with hopper, but I think I'll use it more for woodwork so might get a hvlp then, I also looked at the handheld graco but I've read mixed reviews, be safer to invest in a decent hvlp, cheers for the reply 😁👍
@@jamesfairclough6340 a hand held they say wil last 100 gallon, that includes the water you wash it out with!
hvlp won't do ceilings... the gxff would be ideal for those.
So the gxff, could bring in the woodwork I wanna do and it's also there for the occasional ceiling, spot on Phil, the gxff might come in handy for any new build projects too 🤔
@@jamesfairclough6340 have a look at the videos in here... covers most stuff.. and using gxff as well
th-cam.com/play/PLZ7In9Un2_xtQvq4I7XF7BStCLLIc5oCC.html
what would you spray banister and spindles with airless or hvlp?
I have videos on using both on staircases :) so either is the answer.
Now how long will it lasts and how long does the consumables last as well that’s the question?
Gary..... £40!!
LoL
It'll pay for itself on one job lol
Great demonstration Phil - will buy one of these, initially to spray inside our Garage with White masonry paint to brighten up the Garage, hopefully white masonry paint should be ok?
Give it a go for £40.
You may need to thin the paint quite a lot though.
Is it already painted out or new?
You can get away with normal contract paint.. a lot cheaper to buy... It's good enough for a garage.
Did you see my video of painting breeze blocks?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Thanks Phil - just bought today from Screwfix and also will take your note about thinning the Sandtex Paint for spraying on a new build Garage wall/s. Any other tips greatly received
@@johnsech5405 keep your receipt lol
Bought this based on your review. Took it apart to clean and small spring and small black rubber bit come out from somewhere? Help
In the instructions, it should give you a diagram break down of parts. Is it on there?
Hi mate I’m using one of these and the paint is literally running down the walls. What do you think I’m doing wrong? I’m using the big hole. And air pressure to max, I’m using crown Matt white paint and did a mix of 50/50 anything thicker and it wouldn’t come out the gun
Hi, its not geared up for spraying emulsion :(
try the smaller air cap... turn down the air flow, gradually increasing till it sprays better and move a bit quicker.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thanks will give it a go tomorrow
hi phil, please can you tell me im buying my first house and its in a very poor state, and i just want to white blast it everywhere the total lot just to get it something like first, if i spray a door and its case, will i have to mask it of , if im going to do the walls in white emulsion?, will the emulsion cover the overspray because i guess it will be 2 different paints for doors and walls, and do they cover each other, whats the fast and dirty way that will still look right , thanks , great vids
yes, you'll be taping them up to protect them.
How about using a paint that will do walls and woodwork in one?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator is there such a thing, and if there is is it something i can still get big cheap trade buckets of like emulsion, or is it an exspensive paint,thanks
@@leeyo5494 look at LickPro paint and also H&G paints, check those websites out, you may find something on there.
Remeber, cheap is cheap for a reason.
I use an Apollo 1500 pro , but when I Skirts (main issue) any ideas why it always looks washed out? Really crap finish so ending up brushing it after! Which sort of destroys why I’m spraying plus causing more work…. Any advice that you may think of may be helpful…. 👌
Hi. What paint did you use?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator dulux trade quick dry gloss / satin and Johnstones aqua .. weird as doing rads , sills etc all good.. but the finish albeit excellent the colour is nothing like when brushed .. very annoying 🙄
Try the viscosity cup to get the right amount of paint ,should have put a thin layer on first 😊
lol, you watched it all the way through?
What type of paint or dilution did you use for this spray gun? I found it useless. It couldn't spray anything even water.
Same issue I’m having.. been trying to get it work since 9pm last night. Tried again this morning and still nothing is coming out
You fighter 😆, just purchased one,haven't tried it yet
cool, don't overfill the paint pot and away you go ;)
What cheap sprayer would you recommend for me I need to paint my concrete block garage. Iv not used one before I would like to use masonry paint
Airless.
It'll spray neat paint... Ideal if you thin it a bit though.
And get enough paint on.
Have you watched my video of spraying a garage yet?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator I have watched it mate thanks good vid. Just debating wether or not to do it with roller and brush I’ll only ever be doing it once so probably not worth getting a sprayer 😂
Would this spray gun be okay with haft primer, Ben Moore, scuffx or advanced? Never used a spray gun,but very tempted to give it a try.
Hi. I can't see why not.
It's not as complicated or should I say advanced as using a QT5, there's not the power or the full control .. but as you see on the videos I've used it on, it does spray... You may need to check the thickness of paint so you get it flowing out.
I do have some scruffX to demo... Shall I give it a go with it as well?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Hi Phil, thank you for your reply, the scuffx demo video would be great, at a guess what percentage of water to paint would you suggest would be good?
let me try it out, on;t add water if needed, you don't want to over thin it and lose it's 'body'.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thank you Phil, very much appreciated
Would this gun be OK to paint garrage interior block walls with masonry paint?
You may struggle getting enough paint on.
Have you seen the other cheap Erbauer sprayer I tested.. that may be ok having a bit more power.
Ideally you'd want airless sprayer that can put paint on quicker, thicker. But that's another learning curve to understand how to use it.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Cheers Phil, that makes sense. Yes I've just watched the other review and will give that one a try. What airless would you recommend at a reasonable price point?
I have an issue with mine, when i turn it on, it just sprays paint without me pressing the trigger
check the needle doesn't have something blocking it.... and make sure its put together as per instructions... are the seals in place?
Hi phill new to spraying is the Graco hvlp spray good for gloss
I phill I’m new to spraying is the hvlp best for gloss on woodwork
hi, I've loads of videos for you to watch, are we talking waterbased or oil based paint?
Alright Phil what kind of money do you normally charge to hang a mural like the graham and brown one you done? Thanks Carl
Anything from £150+

yep.
bedec MSP in soft satin.
walls, in a rental.... Albany Durable Matt will be ideal... get it at Brewers.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thank you, you a top bloke
I've got to paint 3 rooms including the ceilings obviously, might consider this. But there is lots of masking off to do if I use a sprayer. Might be just as quick to paint with a roller. Hmm, not sure 🤔
For ceilings and wall, you're better to use an airless sprayer, not an hvlp like this one. This is better for your woodwork.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator i have a job coming up for an external paint of a peddle dash house, im thinking of doing it with a sprayer. Ive never used one. Would it be possible for you to do an external house paint tutorial and possibly review the vevor 2200w off ebay. Finding your videos very helpfull. Thanks
@@fishwhipped9972 outside.... Airless is better to use.. also, treat it like the painting breeze block video i did. Spray it in and sheepkin/long pile roll over it to make sure it gets in all those areas the sprayer may miss.
You'll get the hang if it.
...Sir, Which one you recommend for a ceiling ?
Would this be ideal for VERY long pieces od coving mate?
have a look at the other HVLP I review .. its about £65.
that would be beter ;)
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Top man, Phil. Thanks for the reply.
Can this be used on walls as well?
Hi, no, not really suitable, but I've a video coming up that would be suitable and it's a budget sprayer... £65 that will do walls and woodwork.
Good enough to respray your porsche when you get it?
we'll see
How do you think the paint?
Thin?
Hello i am just starting my business i will be spraying upvc windows doors, garages, gates, fences. What sprayer do you advice me to buy?
the best you can afford ;)
HVLP.. nothing less than a Stage 5.
a compressor set up.. you may get away with a smaller 9ltr but I'd say anything from 24ltr tank may be best.
You won't want airless for uPVC.
Have you seen my uPVC spray vids?
also the vid about running a business? th-cam.com/video/HOK8oMFu2P4/w-d-xo.html
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator ok so for example a qtech stage 5 or graco 9.5 but set up to a 24litre plus air compressor?
@@jacobbrown3670 any of those, have a try and see what suits you best for you, weight, size and how it handles all key factors.
Great video can you do ceilings with it thanks.
Not really. It's more for woodwork paints.
The bigger one I demo... That says you can... I've not tried it on walls/ceilings as I do have airless sprayers that are more suited for bigger areas needing painting
How it does to do ceilings?
It doesn't hold much paint.
It's more for woodwork really as your emulsion would need thinning a lot.
The other unit I tested would be better. As it's a bit more powerful.
Hi Phil, I'm looking at buying one of these to do similar jobs that you have been doing... I'm looking at doing built in wardrobes, doors, and bedroom walls fence panels and wooden window frames do you think this would do the job?
yep, ideal, either of the screwfix hvlp sprays tbh. the more expensive on does have abit more power.
@Phil Beckwith The Professional Painter & Decorator if you recommend this one to do the above then ill get it! I did look at the erbauer one at 199 but don't think I'd use it often enough to pay the price... can I use any sort of paint in this sprayer?

Hi Phil. I bought one of these and it all seems great, ready to use straight out the box, I tried it with just water and nothing came out. There is a constant airflow coming out the gun but when I pull the trigger and no water comes out. I used a pot of water to see if it was drawing the water up but it just bubbles up the water, any thoughts?
Have you over filled the pot. That the pressure air valve can't pressurise the pot.
Take the pot off.. there's the main pick up tube...then the smaller air tube next to it.. that needs to be clear of paint to put air into the pot to force it out.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator only had the pot filled half way and it’s brand new so no old paint blocking anything
Hi Phil, I’ve just purchased a Fuji spray 4. Mixed the paint as per manufacturer instructions. It’s a gravity feed t model gun. Can’t get any paint to come out unless I lay it on its side, any ideas what I’m doing wrong? Thankd
hi, just check the pipe from the gun to the pot on the top is the correct way around. The valve needs to be able to take air from the gun.. to the pot. if it's the wrong way around it won't work.
if it's not that.. thin the paint a bit more...
what needle set do you have?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thanks Phil
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator I’m using Tikkurila Otex Akva Adhesion Primer and a 1.8 tip.

Hi Phil, do you have a video about filling the pot and paint to water mix ratio? Thanks
Yes I do, I mention it on a hvlp video.. the one about the best paint combo.. have you seen it? the principle is about the same how you get a mix ready to spray.

Hi, not really, it will take a while and not give the finish you really want. For walls and ceilings you're better looking at an Airless sprayer.. but that's next level if you've not done spraying before. Have you seen my videos yet on airless spraying?
Belting informative video but please tell me I'm not the only one with your mannerisms etc keeps seeing Ricky Gervais 😂
hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm maybe just you lol
An you use emulsion?
not really... wait for Monday's video
Hi all, please help!
My paint is not coming out like in the video... I am using crown trade fastflow quick dry gloss. The paint already has a good texture - if I put a wood stick inside and lift above it flows perfectly, no slow dripping. How should I use the viscosity cup? Is not clear to me the 50s and 100s - do I put the the 2mm and 2.5mm inside the cup or how do I know the difference? How much should I dilue? By adding water the paint just disappear after is dried out...
I have think you'll struggle with that paint to be honest.
Can you get water to spray through it.. start there.
You may need to thin the paint more.
The air cap needle.. look at the hole.. one is bigger than the other.

Ps. Thanks for taking the time to get back to me mate.
@@gurifg get the best you can afford.... and don't skimp on power.
Have alook at what I use on my uPVC videos.
If thats what you want, it's about £1000.
YOu can buy compressors with a HVLP gun, for a bit less, bt make sure it's suitable for what you wnat it to do.. also they can be a bit bulky and not so easy to move around.
That cissing is exactly what happened to me when using thinned Bedec MSP on an empty property where I sprayed all the woodwork using my Wagner XVLP with the Finespray cap, it was on keyed up old gloss, thickened the paint and struggled to get it through, but subsequent coats went on much better anyway, good to see it's not just me it happened to though, good you get a viscosity cup with the set, didn't get that with my Wagner, their service desk just said to thin it by about 10 to 15% 🤷♂️
The more water added will ciss more, particularly on surfaces with a sheen or gloss.
Thick paint didn't spray too well so it's playing with it to get a good consistently.
Dropping to the small orifice made a world of difference though.
Quick question for you Kris. How does Dulux oil satin and gloss spray through the xvlp? I've never seen a vid on it or anyone talk about it before. I've got loads of site work coming up and I've always been tempted with the Wagner to take the strain off my old knees. It's gotta be twice as quick and half as hard as brush work and easy to clean etc so the 3500 is tempting to me. Any good and is it worth it?
Another good vid by the way Phil 👍
@@badlefthook624 hi mate, well to be completely honest, I've always been a brush and roller painter, but as well as a decorator I'm also a landlord, so when some tenants gave notice recently, I had a two week gap to redecorate the whole 2 bed house, I think it took us 3 weeks in the end as we had a landscape gardener traipsing through the house relaying the patio, but the wagner 3500 xvlp was a life saver, especially on the stairs and spindles, I also fixed and resprayed the kitchen carcasses white which had faded, put new b&q doors and worktops on and it was like a new kitchen. Until then, I'd had the sprayer in its box for a year, after I got it in a Brewers deal, but didn't want to practice with it on a paying customers house! I think Dulux don't recommend spraying some of their solvent paints, but I'm sure plenty of guys do, I've only used Bedec MSP through it so far and that worked well, slightly thinned, but took a bit of adjusting to get it right. Most important to familiarise yourself with taking it apart and cleaning it, flushing through etc. I would've gone full HVLP, we used those at college when I did my level 2, but I couldn't justify spending a couple of grand on a set up at my stage. For less than £500 I think the Wagner 3500 is worth it, if only as a stepping stone to the Graco types. Bit heavy if holding all day though, worth bearing in mind because the turbine is built into the handset, so that, with a litre of paint on board might make your wrists ache after a while, my only other grumble is that mine came with a euro plug on it, so that's been replaced with a uk type.
@@krisholden8490 cheers for the reply mate. I'm still on the fence with it. I wouldn't run oil and water paints through the same airless machine and the cleaning out would be a hassle. I'm quick enough with a brush, but if you could slash that in half the time and save my knackered knees a bit, I'm half tempted. Like you say, the money on an hvlp is a bit much compared. Still not a lot of info on oil paints and the finish though. I dunno, I'll suss it out when I start and see. It's only £430 and could cut the time in half. Take it easy mate.
@@badlefthook624 I just finished this job a couple of weeks ago. XVLP3500 loaded with Dulux Quick Drying Satinwood, thinned about 10%, I think. Should have thinned it a tad more, but it worked. 90 minutes to coat the entire HSL, so 3 hours for 2 coats - but a whole day masking..

Reckon this would spray aqua guard ? The Wagner one couldn’t handle it. Even thinner by 20%
I'll be honest.. I'm not sure. I've struggled with some of the Jonos paints.. it need that much water in it to spray (hvlp) it's ruined the paint.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Here’s one for you Phil. So I have some in the interior panel doors that are already painted. Problem number one is that they have a grain effect on them and I found that when I sand them down to repaint this affect diminishes. But more importantly despite using a simple 120 grit sanding sponge (A worn down one too) The sanding scratches are showing through several coats of aqua guard (Tinted black).. I haven’t bothered undercoating most as of course I’m only sanding down only to previously painted coat and not Bear wood. Any suggestions to assist with either of these issues? Thanks. Love the content
@@antb3334 with WB you need to v careful not to scratch the surface as the paint don't have enough guts to it to loose the scratches.
Try using a Mirka gold flex 150 and 240grade sanding Pads. There's some in my Amazon shop
You'll be surprised how they cut the surface without scratching it.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thanks mate!
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator so Phil, i had some 220 grit sanding blocks from feestool lying around so to lower the grit even further I wet sanded in small circles lightly across the whole panel door (sanding just the surface of they previous coat) and then re-painted with the black tinted aqua Guard over the top and STILL I can see all the scratches under the surface caused by the 220. Makes no sense? Maybe the black is the issue :/. I’ve got some undercoat on order so maybe try that before and be scared to even sand that lightly lol
Hi can I spray zinzzer bin tru that sprayer you're using
Yes. Clean up is with meths.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator thank you sir
Can you do a video on setting up for spraying zinzzer bin only spraying skirting and door frames also what niddle size to use
@@ansarm39 yeah, done that... Spraying staircase with hvlp
Hi I am trying to test with just water but nothing coming out. Am I missing something?
hi, does the trigger pull all the way back..... is the black 'spring' in the black pipe.. which is next to the white pick up pipe?
Have you too much paint/water in it?
@Phil Beckwith The Professional Painter & Decorator hi thank you. Yes the trigger goes all the way, black pipe is in and I'm just using water atm don't want to add paint until I know it works incase It's faulty. It seems the white nozzle in it doesn't have a hole if that makes a difference? The air is coming through just nothing else?
@@BLUFL1991 is the air cap open?
remove the air cap and see if water comes through it
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator how do I do this please. Thank you
@@BLUFL1991 watch how long take the end can off that you can swap the orifice/spray cap
Defeats the purpose if you need to water the paint down does it not??
It needs to be able to spray.
You should write the instructions for the sprayer, you explained everying that isn't in the book too, thanks 👍
Good idea! lol
I'm here to help.... please like and share ;) with ScrewFix :D
Hi phill was just wondering about the zinessor all coat I tend to use it a lot… would I need to prime a painted composite door before using it I know it’s self priming so maybe I wouldn’t need to what’s your advice mate?
If it's already been painted painted the AllCoat will prime/under coat and finished coat it straight out the can.
Could you still use it if something hasn’t been painted before? And go straight over or wouldn’t you risk it?
@@Shortboxing47 most stuff I think it's fine. You need to read the main data sheet for it, I think some small print says 123 needed over uPVC first. Bruce replied to me on the scratch test video... You could also check what he thinks.. as he's the Zinsser Rep.
Wish I had watched this before using it 😅
Just bought one and tried to use it but no paint coming through :( I ve thinned enough for 50 sec viscosity but still no luck.
Hi.. forgot paint.
Does water spray through it?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator just tried, no water is coming through as well , just the air :)
@@ramntu when you take the plastic pot off... And look at the underside of the gun unit... Is that black valve still in place it next to the pick up paint pipe.
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator it was there, I went to the shop and replaced with another one and it works brilliant. Thanks so much for this video. Very helpful:)
@@ramntu good you got it swapped. ;)
Tell ya what that ain’t bad atall!!
I’ve got this but I didn’t like it, I thinned my paint down and it kept leaking out 😂.
Was it over filled?
@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator nah it was filled to the line. It was user error I don't think I thinned my paint down enough
Noisy but great value
it does the job, have you watched where I use it with Bedec Barn Paint.... ideal.
i wish i brought this now instead of qtech 5 now 🤦🏻♂️ ... im only joking 😆

@@ProfessionalPainterDecorator only need it from front& back fence! If I use it for anything else it’s a bounce 👍
@@colinsimons ideal. Watch my video using it with Barnpaint on a shed
That’s a high hairline Phil
No need for that pal
U no whattt!!😂
Would this work with vanish? And any type of paint?
Have you seen the bit bigger 'cheap' sprayer which is 800w?
They will spray varnish, I'd say keep to water based. The spray cap ideally needs to be smaller than the one that comes with these sprayers, but if you turn down the paint flow on the trigger, you'll be able to reduce how much paint comes out the gun, giving you some control.
