Beginner Problems With The Wagner Control Pro 250 M | Viscosity

We painted the entrance way in the last video but one coat wasn't enough. So we went and bought another bucket of paint, this time Mineralpaint. It was 50% off!!! :)
This kind of paint is much much thicker than the indoor paint we used so far. We added about 1,5 liters of water to the bucket and stired it properly with a drill.
Because the viscosity is much higher on the mineral paint, the Wagner Control Pro 250 M had problems pumping it through the machine. At least on setting 5, which was the only setting we used so far.
We tried setting 4, which was a bit better but still stopped every minute or two. Then I turned it down on setting 3 and after that we had no trouble painting anymore.
Setting 3 is for paint with high viscosity, setting 4 for medium and setting 5 for low viscosity, like indoor paint - or water!
If you like the Wagner Control Pro 250 M, you can get it here:

It really is an amazing painting machine, worth the money, even though it costs a bit more than other machines online, but see it as an investment, the machine will not disappoint you!
If you have to paint ceilings too, invest in a wand as well! It saved us soooo much time already. You can get it here:

We hope this video was informative, thanks for watching and have a great day!

When you are spraying you need to keep a decent distance from the wall and have the right pressure, if you have lines while spraying it could only mean 3 things 1. Youre pressure on the gun is too low turn it up 2. The nozzle of the gun is dirty with dried up paint. Clean it. 3. Your tip is dead go buy a new one. Also when when spraying do not let go of the triggers otherwise you will splatter paint on the wall and this will be visible. Keep the gun moving while spraying don't not press the trigger and then start moving this can cause runs that can be very difficult to fix if it dries same thing applys when you want to stop, spray away from the wall and continue to move the gun even when you have let go of the trigger this is so you don't do any mistakes.

Just painted my fence with the Control Pro 250m yesterday with the 5 tip and had streaky results where I went a bit faster on the stroke...The coverage where I went a bit slower is superb.

Hi, I've just bought this machine and yet to use it. Tell me as i'm confused, surely having the thicker exterior paint would be better on setting 5 as it has the most pressure to push the thicker paint out? cheers

I have the same machine, last time I was experiencing a lot of 'spatters' / 'blobs' of paint.. Had it before with the same paint as well, but only 2-3 times on painting a whole house (I kept a clean felt roller at hand just to roll those out). But the last time there was an abundance. I also had a lot of drips forming on the tip (even with a new tip/tip holder assembly). Did you experience this before?
