    Hi Pete, very interesting and, I guess, much simpler to clean instead of taking apart the original at the end of a job.
    Many thanks for posting and best wishes, Rob

      Hey Rob, thank you buddy, hope you’re keeping well.. Yeah the onboard filter is ‘problematic’.. being small and tricky to access.. it can clog, hamper performance, putting a strain on the machine with it having to work harder .. always a pleasure to hear from you my friend 🙏 ..regards Pete

      If graco sprayers are that good why do you have to buy extras because there onboard filters are problematic

    • @PaintHQ
      @PaintHQ  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Derek, you make a valid point.. it’s simply down to cost and keeping the cost affordable for the P&D market.. to include a manifold filter as standard would bump up the shelf price of the GX models.. I guess from a manufacturers standpoint, if there wasn’t an onboard filter whatsoever, there would be a risk of damage if poor quality unstrained paints were used.. bit like an electrical fuse, you’re adding a layer of protection.. all Graco sprayers are ready to go out the box, upgrades are purely optional.. hopper, gun upgrades etc.. hope that helps my friend.. you do make a good point 👌

      Hey Brian, really appreciate your feedback.. yeah it’s a solid design, solid in construction and weighty too.. have you noticed if any pulsation is reduced, have to say I noticed a slight reduction when spraying at such low (900) psi 👍 ..thanks again, always great to have your input my friend.. regards Pete

      That’s great Anthony, a hopper is a very good addition.. regarding the smaller3/16” hose, another way to think about it .. a 3/16” 7.5m hose is whats included as standard with the GXFF.. and the replacement pump is the same for both GX models 👍

    Hi Pete, you making me want to spend more lol. on another note i started using my sprayer, I'm enjoying so far, however i have been making some rookie mistakes and i end up with paint runs on my doors, obvious i still have a lot to learn and i will have to improve my spraying technique massively in regards to stop paint runs. i will get there eventfully. i guess practise makes perfection!
    if practice won't help sanding down paint runs will make me to improve because they are a pain on the neck. best regards Flavio

    • @PaintHQ
      @PaintHQ  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I see what you’re thinking ..the SpraymanUK GX21FF (GX21 with Hopper), is an innovative well thought out design.. The hopper installation video is coming soon, I demo how such a small amount of material is required to ‘prime’ the system, especially with the smaller 3/16” hose.. I measure the amount of paint going in and show how much is returned to the can 😆 ..quicker cleanup with this smaller setup too..
      I do still like my Ultra Handheld 💯 ..earned its keep on projects many times over for me..
      Always great to hear from you, don’t hesitate to ask if I can help at all.. regards Pete

    Hey Pete , great introduction love your camera work amazing how you make every video so interesting 😊, how do you keep sprayer etc so clean you are surely top bloke , I was telling you i sprayed a kitchen for first time last week it turned out really well , But ran into few problems was spitting alot , paint tinned and strained paint also , any idea why get spits Pete ? i didn't buy paint customer bought diamond eggshell , don't know if was right product but did turn out well , the Stainer you had on your hopper in video were did you get that Pete ?? cause i get mine in brewers and dont cover hole hopper

      Hi Niall.. sorry for not getting back to you sooner, I will always reply my friend.. thank you so much for the kind words of support, and I appreciate your update on your kitchen.. well done that’s quite an achievement 👏👍.. if I recall you used the GXFF, (and FFLP tip).. the spits could be from the wrong tip seat / gasket for an FFLP tip.. the LP uses a larger orifice and FFLP a smaller, if a larger setup is used with the FFLP tip, you can get a spit.. This short video demonstrates the difference..
      th-cam.com/video/7jCl91jFpBw/w-d-xo.html
      I wouldn’t choose diamond eggshell personally, but I can appreciate and respect the custoner choice.. I can offer some advice in future on product selection if that would help
      Regarding the paint strainer, I believe Brewers sell the individual Trimaco strainers.. sane as I use, I buy them in packs.. they surprisingly fit the hopper, they just take a bit of force 😆
      Hope this covers your points, feel free to get back to me if you need anything.. regards Pete

      @PaintHQ  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Paul, thank you so much.. as always I appreciate your feedback and support.. I’m not going to lie, the well built construction of the manifold filter is weighty and certainly adds to the weight of the GX21.. I’m on the same page as you, I love my 395, but i find it awkward to manoeuvre.. then there’s the weight of the 110v transformer 🙈 ..I know the offset handle on Graco stand mount pumps is supposed to make carrying easier, but I do find the 2 handle design of the GX21 easier.. great to hear from you Paul, hope you’re keeping well my friend 💯

    Hey Pete, I'm trying to unscrew the bolt that holds the filter to my GX21 Cordless that i recently purchased from Sprayman but it seems really tight and to the point of thinking im going to thread the bolt if i go at it any harder. Did you have or know anyone that has had a similar problem? Even applied some WD-40 to help but no luck. I'd like to give the filter a good clean and check up as ive just finished a big job with it using oil based eggshell. Thanks.

      Hi Kevin, sorry to hear you’re having a bit of trouble.. just to confirm, is it the onboard (small) filter that you’re looking at releasing / checking?.. or an installed ‘bottle’ filter (like the video).. either way, you’re right, don’t over work it..

      Ultra Classic sprays beautifully.. and Holman Paints can tint to any colour off pretty much any colour chart.. You’ll also get a 5% discount with the code PAINTHQ 😆

    • @PaintHQ
      @PaintHQ  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Niall, I personally prefer a compressor air spray setup with a pressure pot Vs a turbine ..a regulated pressure pot allows more dedicated air at the gun, which helps atomise thicker (decorative) coatings.. you also get more equipment for your money.. my recent HSL video features this setup.. another advantage of a compressor (with sufficient CFM), you’re a step closer to going AAA (Air Assisted Airless).. equals the ultimate setup for fine finish spraying (such as cabinets), with little to no overspray 👍👌 ..regards Pete

      Hey buddy, thank you so much 🙏 ..great question.. yeah I change both manifold and gun filters.. so if I’m spraying woodwork / trim (so an .008 or .010 tip), I use a 100 mesh (blue) filter.. then if spraying an emulsion, I swap to a 60 mesh (black) filter in the manifold and gun.. emulsion I typically use a LP 515 tip 👍
