One thing I kept wondering about the priming cycle....why cant I just prime my paint back into the hopper? Why do I need to prime into a dump bucket lol?
@@tonytorres760 I seriously don’t think the bucket step is needed. Even with paint, the machine primes in a split second. I only used the bucket once and it was during the filming of this video.
The bucket can be use for the clean up , but I was thinking the same when priming with the paint I just bought this thing two days ago, looks like it’s simple to use
To save yourself from future headaches clogs, you should add a paint liner strainer and line the bucket before you put the paint inside it's Finer than the strainer in the bottom of the paint container. Double protection. A 5 gallon strainer will work and just fold it over. Find liner in Home Depot, pain department
I found this on Amazon, not sure if this is what is mentioned? www.amazon.com/dp/B093359P27/?coliid=IYYHTONFLHJ7F&colid=2BMZHUNMKJSGB&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_lstpd_WHN4S1Z3J6FDY414037J
Bought one last week and am about to take it on its maiden voyage today. You did, indeed, remove some of the intimidation factor in using this. Thank you so much. I'm now a new subscriber.
The instructions on this from the manufacturer are terrible. Thank you so much for walking me through how to set it up. The trick for me was how to install the spray head,
Wow you did a better demonstration and review then the manufacture did lol, I didn't know how the seat in the gun went in.... You were very detailed thanks!
Thank you so much! I had the same thing happen with the spray key and could not figure out how to get it in. You were the only TH-camr who could help me. Everyone else acted like it was easy. They must have not had the same problems you and I have. Thanks for making this video.
how much have you thinned the wall paint? for me, unfortunately, the nozzle of the instola clogs frequently despite the fact that I have filtered the paint several times
I didn’t thin mine at all, but there are instructions for clearing clogs. I filmed this a while back, but I think I included what to do when that happens if I remember right. Is the paint new?
Thank you so much for making this video. I bought this for myself, and I was totally scared to use it without someone to show me how. This video makes me feel way less stressed. Again, thank you for being so thorough and getting nice clear shots on the various small parts. It may be watching this video on my cell phone much easier.❤
I agree. I followed the directions exactly in this first video, then thought “why the heck was that bucket necessary?” I think Wagner just wants to cover their bases and make sure customers are comfortable with running the product.
This is probably the best review that I’ve seen on this sprayer. Very well put together. I just bought one last week but haven’t used it yet. Thanks for the special effort you put into this review.
@@Jennyfromtheshop looking into buying this to spray a wooden picnic table with water sealer. I'm looking for an all-around sprayer for all kinds of projects such as painting.
I agree! This video was the first time I used this sprayer and I followed the directions exactly. This was their recommendation and I’m sure they have a reason, but I think it’s a step that can be skipped.
Jenny, thank you for the tips on this sprayer! Your information streamlined everything; I did have a minor panic when it plugged (after a gallon and a bit like you said), but I came back to this video, and it was super simple to get it fixed. Thank you again!
I thought you were supposed to prime w water first. At least, that's what I've seen so many others do. And they did it from brand new as well. Obviously you would prime w water between uses first just to ensure it's completely clean, as well as after use. I was just wondering why you did it differently than what I've seen. Great video. Very thorough.
Hi Chandra, to answer your question, I just followed the manufacturer’s instructions which say “the sprayer is liquid cooled, do not operate without water or paint in tank.” Using water in the tank first is only a good practice recommendation when it’s new to check that the unit is working properly and/or to familiarize yourself with how the sprayer works. (Page 8 of the manual.) I think the others did it because they watched other people do it in their videos? I also watched a few videos first but ultimately followed Wagner’s instructions. In my opinion the water first method is unnecessary (did you see how fast the paint primed?) as well as the step where to put the tube off to the side and dump into a bucket. I plan to do a follow up video showing what I know now vs then. I also have ideas for easier cleanup because I like to keep mine looking new. Hope this makes sense, thanks for watching and commenting.❤️
Seems to me you could leave the priming tube in the spray tank versus putting it into a waste container. Does it make that much of a difference? Same with priming the spray gun.
It doesn’t make a difference, in my opinion. I followed the instruction manual but plan to do a follow up video with a similar model and I’ll be leaving that part out.
Yeah that’s why use garbage can to clean mine out and I get 2 full 5 gallon buckets of water 🥰 Second time around a filling the sprayerwith clean water also cleans the hose😍
I have used this many times and it works well but it seemed to clog up quite often and sucked through paint like no other. Does anyone have any experience watering the paint down and did it help avoid the clogs and make the paint go a little further? When it's working it works great, there just seems to be a lot of stopping and fixing in my experience.
Hi Alexa, you might need to put your paint through a strainer first. My paint did not clog but it was brand new and mixed just prior to filming. Some people do add water but I haven't.
Hi Lennie! I don’t have a discount but it’s available on Amazon for around $214.00. Here’s the link www.amazon.com/vdp/0c31b2499f824fd485fc0a34ab2da932?ref_=aipsfvideo_aipsfmissdewaltjennifercline&linkCode=ssc&tag=jennifercline-20
No, mine didn’t come with a filter inside the gun, just that white strainer at the bottom of the tank. My other model comes with liners, is that what you mean?
Great video Jenny! You’re a good presenter - thorough, concise and good pace; I appreciate no background noise, no sound track distraction or the common himhaw and repetition frequently found in unprepared/unpracticed presentation, which is too bad because so many could do as well as you if they did the old mirror talk. I’ll be watching more of your content - and others - to learn from those experiences and/or mistakes… so I don’t have to make them all myself! 😂
Jennifer , I was so intimidated by looking @ all the tools in my Wagner 130 pro but you made the the direction so so easy to go back and paint ! I got it naw ! Thank you so much.
Not being sexist...just being honest. There's something about a gal in overalls that inspires me. Am I the only one that noticed..."Hottie"! I'm getting geared up to paint my newly purchased mobile home this spring and I'm sure this unit will get the job done. Great video!
Very informative and great tips! Thank you. Not sure if someone has mentioned it but the pointed end of your green spray tip is designed to help with the removal/install of the tip guide piece that gave you trouble at the 7:00 mark. Helps SO much!
The manual just said not more than 16” away. I probably had it about 6” away from the wall. As far as pressure, there isn’t a gauge to control that, it’s all or nothing. Lol
@@Jennyfromtheshop I have been searching for a video of how to use my 130 for gravel or floor painting. Please could you direct me to one of yours. Also I would like to know if I need a different tip for my new Wagner 130 for exterior gravel painting of my driveway. Many thanks. I am an extremely creative grandma who likes old school landscape and easy maintenance. I intend on using exterior latex paint and thinning viscosity about 30-50% per gallon
@@annthompson6389 Hi Ann! I wish I had the answers but this was my first time using my sprayer. Possibly Wagner’s customer service could help? Personally, I think their tips are probably universal but I don’t know for sure. I love that you are enjoying these projects. I myself find home improvement empowering. ❤️💪
@@Jennyfromtheshop thank you Miss DeWalt! I will contact Wagner 800 number Monday. An extension wand would be most helpful for flooring. Have a good week.
Thank you for a very informative video. I am looking at this sprayer to paint my house foundation. I’ve never used a paint sprayer and was very apprehensive even thinking about it. Like the other commentators said you did such a good job explaining everything I don’t have to read the manual now! LOL Thank you and you have a new subscriber ❤
THANKS...you we're very helpful just found u I bought one hope the paint will not get clogged😊 spatula for scraping out base..yep yeah I would dump the first couple of times water fills..no time for that waiting then use power to pump out
I had trouble with my key shifting during shipping too, I addressed how to fix it, I don’t recall where it is in the video, you might have to fast forward.
Nice job, I really loved using my sprayer. Just one question: Why did you put the clear plastic tube in a spill bucket to prime it? If you don't prime with water you don't need to waste good paint in the spill bucket.
That’s a great question. I followed the directions in the manual and later wondered why that’s a step. I’m planning to do a follow up video now that I’ve used it several times and give my own opinion/tips/tricks.
Hi Jenny, your video was fantastic. Do you have any tips what to do at the end when cleaning? Mine was working fine, finished the last panel of fencing. Added water to start cleaning and it's only sputtering water a little bit. It won't spray any out the hose either. I feel like I've broken it..
I’ve actually been meaning to do a follow up video with tips and shortcuts I’ve learned since filming. You might want to contact Wagner about your issue but it sounds like maybe the paint dried inside the nozzle? Did you try taking it apart and soaking it in warm water?
Great video! One question: I'm spraying multiple coats on doors and trim, and I'd like to know how long I can leave the paint in the system before doing the second coat? If I have to clean the system between each coat, it's likely a show-stopper.
I understand the predicament, cleaning is perhaps the worst part about using any sprayer. I don’t know the answer to this question but if it’s going to be longer than 20-30 minutes, I’d recommend draining the paint. If you’re working with a lot of materials and outside, chances are the first items painted will be somewhat dry by the time you finish the last ones. The paint comes out in a pretty fine mist, not like rolling or brushing. Hope that helps? You can try contacting Wagner for help if needed.
I purchased this sprayer. First and only try; it kept clogging after about 5 seconds of spraying but the deal breaker was the plastic hose that is coiled like a steel spring and remained that way. When trying to extend the hose it pulls the sprayer along with it. I might have been able to live with a rubber hose but it was sent back. Piece of garbage.
That’s a bummer, I’ve used mine several times and the hose did calm down. In fact, the last time I used this I was able to place the tank far away to prevent overspray from getting all over everything. Was your paint new? Did you see the segment about clearing clogs?
Many thanks for taking time to share. Great video. If / when the rain ever stops I am spray painting a large log home. Hope all goes well. Would I use mineral spirits for priming and clean up?
Happy to help! I actually used the water based paint to prime (it takes a split second) and water for cleanup. The sprayers aren’t meant for oil based from what I remember, I don’t have the manual in front of me. Hope that helps? If not, you might want to reach out to Wagner directly. I’d hate to give bad advice.
Thank you very much for your video you made (posted). I watched many times last night. I painted exterior of my house today. it looked so great! Wishing you great health always.
Bless you. You are a life saver. I had the same problem with the tip, you showed me how to re-align the piece. On the Wagner instructional video, the gun comes pre-assembled.
Awesome. My tip did clog and your "tip" about rotating the green piece 180 degrees worked like a charm! Thanks. Also, I followed your directions on cleanup. Very cool. As a first timer, this video helped me tremendously. Well done!
Who’s lying? I did finish it, this was just an instructional video while I was in the middle of this project. I don’t remember saying I was done, I think I ran out of paint this particular day. You can see my beautiful basement renovation and workbench on Instagram.
How much overspray did you have? Can you adjust to reduce overspray? I tried a sprayer years ago and just seemed to make more of a mess with the overspray than it was wirth. I end up finishing just rolling the room. Great video though
The overspray was not horrible, I don’t believe there’s a way to adjust it but I painted my basement with just a tarp on the floor and up by the ceiling, I held a piece of cardboard. This was way faster than rolling.
Oh yeah. I don’t doubt the speed at which you can do the job. Just the overspray on the machine I used years ago was not worth it. It was a Graco brand. May have just been too much for the size of my job. Small rooms. Thank you for your reply.
Nope, not according to the manual which lists water as a “recommendation” only to familiarize yourself with the unit and make sure it’s working. After using this a couple times I actually think the first step of spraying into a bucket first is pointless and wastes paint. The primer function works lightening fast.
I probably will when I’m not filming and speaking. Plus this was my first run, I wanted to be able to hear the changes in the motor. 👍 I’m more confident about using it now.

To save the clean-up of the bucket you might want the use a grocery bag as a liner for the bucket and throw it away at the end of the job.

The paint comes out in a pretty fine mist, not like rolling or brushing. Hope that helps? You can try contacting Wagner for help if needed.
Thank you so much from New Zealand. I hate reading manuals . You made it look easy. 😀
Most people do! Thanks so much for watching.
I purchased this sprayer. First and only try; it kept clogging after about 5 seconds of spraying but the deal breaker was the plastic hose that is coiled like a steel spring and remained that way. When trying to extend the hose it pulls the sprayer along with it. I might have been able to live with a rubber hose but it was sent back. Piece of garbage.
That’s a bummer, I’ve used mine several times and the hose did calm down. In fact, the last time I used this I was able to place the tank far away to prevent overspray from getting all over everything. Was your paint new? Did you see the segment about clearing clogs?
Thanks Miss Jennifer... You explained like a true professional... I too had the same problem with the green key...
Glad this was helpful!
Great video! My tip was the same way when I bought mine, thought I was doing something wrong until I watched your video...THANKS😂
Maybe I should do a separate video of just that clip?! Glad this helped.
Many thanks for taking time to share. Great video. If / when the rain ever stops I am spray painting a large log home. Hope all goes well. Would I use mineral spirits for priming and clean up?
Happy to help! I actually used the water based paint to prime (it takes a split second) and water for cleanup. The sprayers aren’t meant for oil based from what I remember, I don’t have the manual in front of me. Hope that helps? If not, you might want to reach out to Wagner directly. I’d hate to give bad advice.
Great video. Thank you!
Congratulatios !!! You are so beautiful
Thank you very much for your video you made (posted). I watched many times last night. I painted exterior of my house today. it looked so great! Wishing you great health always.
You’re very welcome! Glad it was helpful, I appreciate the lovely comment. ❤️
Thank you for the video, I can not find my instructions, your information was very helpful.
Welcome! You might be able to look them up online, possibly. Hopefully my video covered all of your questions.
Bless you. You are a life saver. I had the same problem with the tip, you showed me how to re-align the piece. On the Wagner instructional video, the gun comes pre-assembled.
Happy to help!
Awesome. My tip did clog and your "tip" about rotating the green piece 180 degrees worked like a charm! Thanks. Also, I followed your directions on cleanup. Very cool. As a first timer, this video helped me tremendously. Well done!
I’m so glad to hear this! Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for this video, I feel confident I can use the sprayer now!
@@Amodgirl Happy to help!
Thank you Jenny! You have made a very, very good explanatory video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
A great Tutorial! I’m doing same project; basement cinder block. Thanks for the help!
Thank you! This sprayer will be a lifesaver, I’d still be down there painting without it! 😂
Thank you I just bought this sprayer and this is the best how to vid I have come across again thank you very helpful.
I’m so glad! Thank you for watching!
Such a good video, it covers everything I wanted to know very clearly. Thank you for posting!
Thanks for the kind comment!
bealthiful woman , great job, a love to see you in action!!! i´m im brazil learning wich you, thank´s a lot
Thank you for the nice compliment!
This was absolutely the best video explaining this machine... Thank you!
Thank you for such a nice comment! Enjoy the sprayer, it’s actually kinda fun!!!
Don’t forget to clean the filter in the hand set
Wish I had this this before I started 😅
top tip ... the tip seal assembley that you had trouble with is shaped to fit right on the end of the tip/key so you can line it up perfectly👍
Thank you! Mine must’ve shifted during shipping because everything was out of alignment. One I took it apart and put it back together, I was golden. 💛
very good presenter, no superfluous yaking, clean step by step.
Thank you! It’s taken a long time to learn how to cut to the chase. 😅
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! it was a great guide! We just painted a whole basement in one day!
Happy to help! This makes QUICK work of any project, I'd still be painting that basement with a roller. lol
Thank you so much… I was struggling with the it and you saved my day.
Happy to help!
you should have used primer first ,otherwise you waste a lot of paint.
I filmed this a while back but if I remember right it's primer and paint. It covered my basement walls flawlessly.
They're lying to maam. That didn't look too good unfinished.
Who’s lying? I did finish it, this was just an instructional video while I was in the middle of this project. I don’t remember saying I was done, I think I ran out of paint this particular day. You can see my beautiful basement renovation and workbench on Instagram.
Thank you for sharing!
How much overspray did you have? Can you adjust to reduce overspray? I tried a sprayer years ago and just seemed to make more of a mess with the overspray than it was wirth. I end up finishing just rolling the room.
Great video though
The overspray was not horrible, I don’t believe there’s a way to adjust it but I painted my basement with just a tarp on the floor and up by the ceiling, I held a piece of cardboard. This was way faster than rolling.
Oh yeah. I don’t doubt the speed at which you can do the job. Just the overspray on the machine I used years ago was not worth it. It was a Graco brand. May have just been too much for the size of my job. Small rooms.
Thank you for your reply.
Wasn’t you supposed to prime with water first?
Nope, not according to the manual which lists water as a “recommendation” only to familiarize yourself with the unit and make sure it’s working. After using this a couple times I actually think the first step of spraying into a bucket first is pointless and wastes paint. The primer function works lightening fast.
Thank You!
You should use ear protection with that sprayer.
I probably will when I’m not filming and speaking. Plus this was my first run, I wanted to be able to hear the changes in the motor. 👍 I’m more confident about using it now.
