Thank you so much. What you said makes so much sense. I couldn't figure out the spitting and I have added an extension rod. I'll look into the part you showed, thanks again
An airless almost always spits irregardless of wear. I always start off the substrate and no problem. However, it's should be a well known fact that airless sprayers always spits, mainly because of the massive pressure and buildup of paint on the exterior of the tip. I've often just wiped the tip before each use but spraying off the substrate first should be airless 101!
Thanks Ali. I have an SG3 gun new this year (6-7 hours trigger time), an SG2 gun 5-6 hrs trigger time. How much use can I expect to get out of these guns before overhaul ? Do you have experience with titan RX guns? Reversible seat. Great video !
Approximately the same time as your pump, when you send your pump in for repacking get it done at the same time, the technician will be able to do a visual check of the needle and seat once it's opened. The Titan RX is an incredible gun, also the cheapest to own by far.
My brand new Graco contractor PC is also spitting. What I found is that after you stop spraying some paint accumulates at the opening of the tip. Next trigger put shoots that excess of paint as a few droplets. I don’t think it can be prevented short of wiping the tip after every trigger pull
Hi Ali, I have a Magnum spray gun that came along with my Graco X7. The handle has a housing that when removed conceals a spring and a steel ball. I'm trying to put the spring and steel ball back into the chamber but when I do the gun trigger is very loose and doesn't have that tight feel that it once had and it won't spray. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I dont know if you would know anything about this, but mine is leaking from where the trigger is connected to the gun. Is there some kind of seal inside there that could be blown and if so is it repairable or will I have to replace the whole gun?
My sprayer is brand new and doing this.... I've filtered the paint, been using SW high bond primer....have put 3 gallons through it and it's starting already
LightGesture depending on your gun, you might just need to adjust the nut at the back of the gun, or you might have a little bit of paint skin caught between the needle and seat
@@westsprayairless8763 I'll check it cause like he said I only used it one 5 side jobs it's almost brand new my boss had his sprayer with the same gun for more than 5 years and sprays like a champ
Same here. Bought a new gun and still spit with my normal pump. Bought a brand new 695 in the middle of a cabinet job just because couldn't figure it out...still spit with the brand new pump and gun. Ffffffffuuu....
@@seanlogan5661 I'm trying to figure this put too. Brand new everything and its still not changing anything I keep getting spatters with my fflp tips. Like wtf is going on. Have you figured it out yet??
PLEASE help, does anyone know what causes spitting at the beginning of the pill. NO EXTENSION this is driving me nuts on my titan 440 use olly for latex enamel. Thank you!
More than wear and tear.. I have a new system and pressure modification is not the answer. An airless just spits because of massive pressure and buildup of paint on the ext of tip.
Hello, are you using long extension poles, if so you will also need a clean shot valve. Also is the replacement gun new or old, if its new get it replaced under warranty, if it's old it could also need a rebuild.
5 gls thru a new gun and now spits and splatters. the Titan wants my arm and left nut for repairs or parts. now renting after selling the overpriced unit.
David O'Dell there are 2 different models 1 has 2 long screws holding the trigger in that is 288488, the other is held in by 1 long screw that is 287031. Hope that helps
if its with an extension pole them that's normal, if its straight off the gun, its very likely you have something stock between the gun needle and front diffuser

Much Thanks, Ali. Good info, clear and simple.
I was going crazy trying to figure out why it was doing it thank you my friend keep up the good work
Thank you so much. What you said makes so much sense. I couldn't figure out the spitting and I have added an extension rod. I'll look into the part you showed, thanks again
Just jump on ebay and get a new gun ... stay away from wagner and geaco more trouble than there worth..
Thank you sir, very helpful info, because my sprayer does the same thing.
Great job keeping it simple and clear!!
Great video Ali. Love your work.
Yes ! Great job we can differently see the details! Nicely done sir 👏
If you really pay attention to your gun you’ll know what he’s talking about
Thank you very much Ali 👍
Perfect. Thanks Paintman.
thanks dude! I got my answer. thank you.

Brand new sg3 gun just plugged it up and it’s spitting like crazy like a 10 second stream
Thanks
Hi Ali! Curious to know where you would recommend getting a pro shot attachment from? and are they expensive?
Go to your local Graco dealer, in Australia they're just over $300, but honestly when using longer extensions, worth their weight in gold

Your paint might be too thin causing it to overbuild on the tip guard.
@@westsprayairless8763 It happens with all paints undiluted :(
@@westsprayairless8763 a graco tech told me that it could happen because 310 is too restrictive for the paint that requires 015-017 opening.
@synthesaurus that is also correct another factor is having the unit set at the right pressure for the spray tip

If you text me your email I'll send you the breakdown of your gun, I won't be able to do it until Tuesday though
@@westsprayairless8763 Hi Ali, thx! My email is moises.usc@gmail.com
On the SG 2 Graco model, are the threads reversed? I can not seem to unscrew it.
If you can't get the nut off then it's broken inside. Remove the front diffuser and then try knocking it out from the inside
You really know your shizzle ma man. I have a cleanshot but i must say out of a 25cm extension i didn't need it. Just the longer ones.
I dont know if you would know anything about this, but mine is leaking from where the trigger is connected to the gun. Is there some kind of seal inside there that could be blown and if so is it repairable or will I have to replace the whole gun?
Send me a pic to westsprayairless@gmail.com, you might have a damaged housing

@@njmallday its probably the actual gun get one of ebay 30 bucks
What piece was that that he said. A grace what?
You need to hold it a little bit further away from the camera
PLEASE help, does anyone know what causes spitting at the beginning of the pill. NO EXTENSION this is driving me nuts on my titan 440 use olly for latex enamel. Thank you!
it sounds like paint build up on the tip, thin your paint according to the can label and that should stop it.
hi i have wagner vector pro gun where can i get service kit for gun from?
Any Wagner agent, If you can't find an agent, you can order online at westspray.com.au
What makes the spray machine spit like that? Why does it do that ?
It's wear and tear, just like your pump has it so does the gun.
More than wear and tear.. I have a new system and pressure modification is not the answer. An airless just spits because of massive pressure and buildup of paint on the ext of tip.
Paint the door
Do u run workshop and repair airless
Yes i do, i have a workshop in Melbourne and Sydney
@@westsprayairless8763 great stuff
Graco clean shot right?
clean shot will help until the needle wear is too much
what is the price in India
dhiraj kumar I don't know about India. But you can go to westsprayairless.com.au to check Australia's pricing
I replaced my gun completely and it’s still happening? Any ideas ?
Hello, are you using long extension poles, if so you will also need a clean shot valve. Also is the replacement gun new or old, if its new get it replaced under warranty, if it's old it could also need a rebuild.
My gun sprays by its self like any idea if it's the gun nozzle or the machine
If it's coming out of the gun, then the problem is in the gun
It’s the 2 rods attached to the trigger. One on each side, take you gun apart and clear it.

Would the rpm cause spitting
No it's just wear and tear in the gun.
I'm getting a small spit and my gun is brand new
if its with an extension pole them that's normal, if its straight off the gun, its very likely you have something stock between the gun needle and front diffuser
@@westsprayairless8763 do I need to take the gun apart to clean it? I'm new to airless sprayers. I'm NOT using a extention.
All airless sprayer spit. Just get into the habit of spraying off the material first. Problem solved.
