Morning all...

Looking for an inexpensive, around $100, paint sprayer to
spray paint a pergola. I will be using a white latex outdoor paint.
Painting by brush would take forever. Spray painting is the only
viable option. Anyone have a recommendation?

You still have to brush the paint out, or should, to insure that all
cracks, crevices and voids are filled with paint. Otherwise those
points will fail sooner and you'll be painting again earlier than you
should.

For a cheapie paint sprayer you can use a 2 1/2 gallon compression pump
sprayer, thin the paint a bit and brush it out.
