- My review of the Wagner W100 spray gun. I bought this around 8 months ago, and as someone who HATES decorating or painting, I thought this would be something I should take a look at.

Thanks so much from Australia. Yours is the only video that made everything clear enough to choose a spray painter. It seems like the tool has a good balance. Not too technical and easy to use. All the best. Maureen.
Hi Maureen, thanks for the comment, really glad you liked the video and I can be of some help to you. It's really easy to use, I'd say the most complicated thing is reading the instructions for the correct dilution of paint you are spraying
Great video James , just got hold of one of these today, so now I know how to use it properly .Thanks for sharing
Hi TED, no problem, it will save you loads of time 👍
Thank u just purchased one.This walk thru helps so much. 😄
Thank you
What were you painting?? Did it work well??
Thank you so much , I can't wait for mine to be delivered :)
I'm sure you will be very happy with it. I enjoyed using this so much, I bought the fence and shed sprayer they make also
Hey James, i know this particular model is for wood and metal but do you reckon I can use it on a concrete wall?
Thank you for valuable information.Mr James I want know that can I use this w100 spray machine for sand plaster wall or on wall putty coat of sand plaster wall ?
Really good tutorial/review
These sprayers are great I bought a cheap 2nd hand one few year ago a paint zoom I think it's called and it's great I'll miss it when it breaks saves a lot of time good review james
For people like me who dispise decorating they are just the ticket
Hi just had 4 new doors fitted that require glossing. Would you recommend trying to gloss with this gun ?
Enjoyed the review thanks. May well buy a Wagner on the strength of this review.
Suggestion - plug short extension cord between sprayer and socket to extend lead.
Thanks. That's is a great idea about the short extension lead! Unfortunately for me, I have one 1 foot long, or 30 feet long 😂
If I see anybody brush-painting their garden fences or sheds this year then I feel I should refer them to this video :)
Haha, funny you should say that, I recently bought the wagner fence and shed sprayer also lol
Is this the fence sprayer.? You'd recommended it?

Hi, yes it is, and yes I would. I recently painted 17 panels in my garden, I watered the fence paint down by 10% and it's done a fantastic job! Didn't time my self but I'd say I had it all completed with in 1 and half hours.
Thank you.
This was excellent
Thanks William
I have 4 tilting garage doors which need primed and painted so shall look at one of these guns a great review.
Thanks, this is actually on my list to do with this spray gun. 👍👍
Please answer my question can I use silk Dulux paint brilliant white on walls?
These are the reviews I want to see...No messing about, straight to the point and very clear !! I'm gonna grab me this spray gun as well...Excellent review !
Wow, fabulous comment. Thanks very much. Any thing in perticular you liked? Just so I can improve on future videos?
Some review videos can be quite long..What I particularly like about this one it gives all the essential information including the end result in just over 5 minutes..That's just about the perfect time for a review video in my book
Fantastic, thanks for the feedback 👍
Quick question: what primer and topcoat did you use? Were they specifically stating on the tin that they were suitable for spraying?
Hi, no they were just standard water based paints, I did water them down a little, just gauging it by eye. The only real difference between the 2 paints, is the one the is designed for spraying is a thinner consistency
nice. i bought the 510 but not getting on so well with it so far. Have you only used water based paints or tried with oil paints too ?
Yes, these guns are only designed for spraying water based and some chemical products. Spraying oil based paints with these guns wouldn't be a good idea
Very helpful review Thanks
No problem, here to help 👍
Just bought 1 and this helped. Ty
I
And to clean is it any type of dishwash soap?
Hi, I don't think it's required in the instructions about using dishwash soap, but I found it helps, I used a tiny dribble of it and I think it works better (with slightly warm water) then it does with just water
Great review James fair play! 😁👍 yeah the power cable length is very short! Would be ideal to get a long one plug extension cable a few metres long. Would make life much easier. 👍
Thanks, yep only issue for me with this is the length of the cable. Apart from that it's excellent
Thank you very much, this was helpful
No problem 👍
Very interesting. I'm getting ever closer to buying and electric sprayer, my compresssor/HVLP gun is just too much hassle for small jobs like that.
Thanks for your thoughts James.
I have an air sprayer also, I only used used twice, I found it a bit inconsistent to use. But I liked this so much, I bought the fence and shed sprayer version also
Sold!
Well done video. I've got a brick fence in a rock face which is extremely rough so a spray would be ideal I hope. The ad for this says spraying wood and metal. Does that mean it won't be suitable.
Ummm well spraying textured masonry paint probably wouldn't work that well, but spraying any other sort of water based paint would be fine. I've used it to spray my garage door with a metal paint that wasn't water based and it came out well, but I had to use some paint thinner with it
Great job and appreciations
Great review James. I’m currently making some MDF skirting boards and undercoating them with a couple of coats is taking me forever! Also I’ve got home made fence panels I put up just before the accident which haven’t seen a coat of anything in 15 months😳. Just gone through your back catalogue of videos and saw this, is it ok for stuff like fence panels, but also is it ok for the likes of satinwood on skirting and wax/oil on doors? Just had a look on Amazon and it’s discounted at £50 which seems like a good deal
Hi buddy, I've painted mdf with this, plywood and obviously the door in this video. I have only used water based paints in it, I'm really impressed with it with the paints I have used. It also says its designed for wood and metal spraying, so I will test out non water based paints soon when I spray the garage door with it soo. However, a chap in work bought one to paint his fences after I told him about it, and he thinks it's the best £50 he has spent this year. There is also a dedicated fence sprayer which I also have, but I'm yet to use.
Hi James, thanks for the review. It looks great and I've just bought one. I noticed that in the box there's a little pack of white grease and a red plastic ring, about 5mm in diameter. Do you know what these are for and where they should be used/applied?
Hi mate, they are spares. They are for use when you want to replace the seal in the spray end of the gun
Thanks James. Why the lube though? Is it just a German thing?
@@sawdustandsurvival haha, no it 1 helps you fit the seal, and 2 helps to create a seal also
Great video. I have a UPVC door to spray and am probably using a hard-wearing Frenchic outdoor paint. Would this be suitable for that type of paint. Cheers from Devon!
Hi, I've not heard of this paint before, but as long as it's a water based paint then it will be fine. The oil based paints can swell the rubber seals in the nozzle, and also could be to thick to get steady spray pattern
Kiaora from New Zealand! Ure a bloody good communicator mate!
Cheer buddy 👍
Can you use exterior paint with this for painting the outside of a house or upvc paint for paint windows and a front door or would it clog up?
Hmm, i've only used it to paint wood, and my main garage door. But, as long as you use a water based paint then it should work fine. It needs to be something with a thin viscosity
Thanks, great video! But I wonder would you use more paint by spraying the paint then when you would use a brush or roller?
Hmmm hard to say really, you may loose a bit with the over spray, but if you water the paint down your also not using the same amount of paint. But, for me, the time saved, and the fantastic finish it leaves wins hands down
@@JamesManCave thanks for the reply :)
the reason i asked is, i bought me a w100 today and i had to try it, but did it with water, just to get the feeling of it ( i am a noob in this hahaha) but i noticed the tank was pretty quick empty, so that raised my question
Ah, I see. Yes it will empty quick with with water because of how thin the water is, obviously with a thicker paint it will last longer. I used it on my fences, it painted 2 and a bit 4 x 6ft panels in one bowl 👍
Hi James ..great review btw, very helpful..I’ve recently purchased one of these Wagner wood & metal spray gun. I tried it on mdf panelling with 2 coats of primer and my choice of finish is white eggshell. But the 1st coat was very pimply and orange peel effect..I diluted as instructed but I wasn’t too impressed with the finish.. I was expecting a smooth finish like its comes out of a spray booth from a joinery workshop.. maybe it’s me being too heavy handed or not diluting enough..any thoughts on my novice approach on my project..good review very useful thank you..
Hi, I've sprayed loads of things with this and had a super smooth finish on it. I'd say practise your spraying skills a bit with the spray gun, and also take the time to really dial the spray pattern in, long strokes and try not to release the trigger to much as this will cause some minor spitting each time you pull the trigger back 👍
Thank you for your advice and prompt reply..
I found one similar on Amazon but it says model: 417005. Any idea of which model it might really be? Is it W100, W550...? Hope you can help me. Excellent review btw
I've tried to find out a bit more on this, truth is I don't know. But what I can tell you is that the W550 is no longer produced by Wagner, and the specs of both sprayers seem to be identical. The model range that start in the 500s now are different sprayers altogether. Best I can do 👍
Can the sprayer be used if you are painting over head? I need to paint my patio ceiling, would this be a good sprayer for that job?
Yes it can, just turn the cup suction pipe towards the back of the cup so it can use up all the paint
Would this work for paining bare brick wall (inside garage walls?)
What is the overspray like? Is it messy?
Hi, yes I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't. The over spray if you get the nozzle dialed in right is only slightly more then what you would get from a spray can. Obviously you will never get rid of the over spray, but I didn't find it to bad
How do you stop it clogging up
Thank you !
No problem
Not sure why it says it’s suitable for wood and metal but not walls eg plaster. Seems fine on walls. Also I’m using paint that doesn’t have the Red “perfect spray” logo, seems fine! NB the paint itself (leyland trade) says it’s okay for spray. Quality of paint on plaster wall seems really nice! Not sure why it’s not recommended as such
The reason it only says wood and metal is because this is the entry level spray gun. They do a much pricier version that is dedicated for indoor decorating, so some people assume that they need to buy the more expensive spray gun to do walls and ceilings
Been searching the net for this answer as i bought one yesterday and only realised the “wood and metal” after purchase
Good review James
Thanks Phil, I see you have changed your channels name?
James' Man Cave yes I think it’s better still not made the 100 mark yet lol but not been in for a while hopefully that will change soon are you going to Makers Central if so hope to bump into you
Will be there on the Saturday, will be good to bump into a few people there. See you there! 👍
Hi. I’m really struggling with the material flow knob. Where’s a good starting point
I would suggest starting with it almost shut off, and then slowly open it as you go to find a happy medium
Can u try masonry paint please
Hi James, you still feel this is a good purchase from when you first made the purchase to date ?
Hi, yes I do. I've used it quite a few times for small and large projects, and if you can get the consistency right if not using sprayable paints you can get a really great finish.
@@JamesManCave Can you use Latex paint with it
Hiya James. Great review. Been sitting here with a mug of coffee waiting for an upload!!
No pressure then!!
Any idea when you might be doing a review of the Aldi track saw??
Cheers.
Hi David, been doing very much needed things around the house of late, hence why I didn't upload last week. It will be coming up soon, if I had of had some more time, it would have been this weeks review
hi i cannot find information about this anywhere. do you know whats the watts and amp rating on this tool? it should say on its back or something. thank you.
The watts rating is 280w. No information about the amperage
So is this a complete no no for interior walls? I'm being a bit cheap knowing I only have 2 or 3 rooms to do and not wanting to spend 3 times the price on their wall one!
Well I don't see why you can't use it on walls, I would say that it's probably something to do with the spray pattern?
Hello sir, is it possible to have an orange skin effect with this spray painter? And how?
Hi, in theory yes it is. Poor set up and technique would cause it, however because this is designed for water based paints and lacquers the chances of this happen are far less then with a aerosol can paint
Hi James
I have one of these and the paint comes out even when the trigger isn't depressed and the knob at the back is fully wound out.
Hope this makes sense.
Any advice pls?? Looked at the instructions but FAILED!
Cheers,
Neil
Hi Neil, hmmm that's a bit of a tricky one. For the paint to come out without the trigger depressed, the valve must still be open. This I guess could be caused by a blockage of dried paint within the nozzle assembly, and or worn seals. There was something in the manual about an air lock in the plastic tube also by nozzle. I've not had this issue my self, but worth a look? 🤔
Thanks for the quick reply James. Not sure if the valve may be damaged as I dropped it but it's not obvious and seems recessed enough to be protected from being dropped. I will have a look and a play. Cheers
how frequently do you replace the air filter? thanks
I've used it quite a bit, and as of yet in the 20months I've owned it I've not replaced it and I've not noticed any difference with it
Does this work with masonary paint? I’ve filled the canister up and nothing comes out
Not knowing the paint you used I can't answer. But have a look for a follow up video of a review of this done by hand-i-craft. He sprays with masonry paint
Can we paint motorcycle and bicycle frames with this? What do you think how the finish will be? Thanks in advance & kind regards.
Well it says it's only suitable for water based paints. Personally I'd stick with an air sprayer or a decent rattle can spray attachment.
James' Man Cave thank you for your fast response
Hi James. I know this video is old, but I thought I'd ask anyway. I bought this gun today but found it a bit splattery. Any tips?
Hi, sounds like to me, that you may have the mixture a bit too thick. 👍
I'll try that tomorrow, thanks
Can I spray my fence and decking? And how much would I need to dilute it?
Short answer yes, but there is a another dedicated sprayer for that job. And I've no idea what paint/stain/wood preserver you would intend on using and or their condition, or the area you want to paint. So impossible to answer the dilution question
Would you know what make and model is the dedicated sprayer for fences? Thanks.
All I got was an Ikea type sheet of paper could you let me know if I could get a copy, P,S, I also have a lot of AEG 18v power tools
I take it from that, you mean you didn't get the full instruction manual?
Then here is a link to the manual and more you need www.paintsprayer.co.uk/product-manuals
@@JamesManCave
Thanks much appreciated
I have a same one. but I'm having problem when spraying. The partical is not smooth. because I paint very small cabinet door, I didn't put too much paint it the bottle. could this be the reason? Do I need to thin the paint?
Yes, it could be that the paint needs thining down, but it could also be a blockage in the nozzle
@@JamesManCave thx James. after did quite a bit research, I realized that my paint is way too thick. I thought the paint from the shop is ready for use. can I use water to mix the water based paint?
@@RH-ms5ui yes, I think the instructions say to mix up to 10% with water, but I found 15% ok with a thick chalk paint
@@JamesManCave thx for the tip.
I was wondering if the sprayer could work for painting a dresser and Chester drawers?
Hi, if you look through some of my videos, you will see I used it to paint a radiator cover I made, came out really nice
You put the primer over the undercoat?
No, I mixed up my words, i used a undercoat primer on the base layers, then finished it with a top coat of gloss
Would you say this is noisy? I have ocd about noise and the amenity of my neighbours.
Hi, I wouldn't say it was noisy, about the same level as a hairdryer. I'm using mine outside all the time, and my neighbours haven't commented on the noise of it
Can I spray a water-based varnish with it?
Hi, yes you can
Can I use this spray gun using PPG Breakthrough paints?
To be honest, I'm not to sure. If it's a water based paint then I would say yes, but reading up on it, people recommend spraying breakthrough paint in light passes. Hope this helps
@@JamesManCave yes, it does. Thanks for responding :)
I bought this one day, tried to paint few metal sheet of my fence, it was not working at all. The paint was water base paint for fence. It spitting paint not spraying. It Make fence ugly.
Had an issue just like that, the paint was simply not suitable for spraying. Watered down to much. Every sprayable paint I have used after has worked absolutely fine
@@JamesManCave direction for use the paint say, brush, roll and spray
@@Mrkhan-dg9dt does it have to spray logo I mentioned in the video?
Gracias x la información saludos
No problem 👍
Can’t paint oil based paints right?
No you can, this is designed for water based paints. That said though, you can spray oil based varnish
@@JamesManCave cheers for your reply hah you have your work cut out here
Can it do indoor room walls?
Yes, it's a paint sprayer. As long as you use the recommended water based paints it will be fine
James' Man Cave thank you - we are moving house and I’m hoping it will cut the painting jobs time! Can you give me any tips so I don’t splatter it everywhere whilst painting internal walls? Xx
@@SuperLilyevanspotter just take your time to get it set up right with the nozzle adjustment, and when the pot starts to get low, don't carry on trying to get the last bit out, fill it back up and carry on
Nice review 👍
Thanks buddy
Hi James
I can’t get any paint out of the gun at all what am I doing wrong ?
Undercoat then primer.?
Top coat is what I ment to say
@@JamesManCave You're forgiven.
@@Andy-in8ej a thumbs up though for being the first one to notice this error of mine 👍
@@JamesManCave I was a painter for 40 years. I wasn't tryin to be an arse, just habit.
@@Andy-in8ej no I took it as a genuine question. Only noticed my error once I had uploaded it, to late to edit it then.
It always throws me off with that English accent. It throws me off because I think you're in England now I can't get and the particular Wagner model is not in the US.
Believe it or not, we to now have the internet in England these days! 😀👍
