Default Seen at a "real paint store"

Does Sherwin-Williams fall into that category? I would have assumed so,
but a couple of days ago in our local one I was SprayTech paint
sprayers, which appear to be relabeled versions of the Wagners that
everybody here disses.


So,


(a) Is S-W not a real paint store?


or


(b) Are Wagner paint sprayers not as bad as many make out?


or


(c) Is the fact that S-W sells (relabeled) Wagner paint sprayers mere;y
an aberration?


Perce


SOME Wagner piston pumps are pretty good. *I have seen painters
use them. *They seem to prefer Graco, but I have seen all kinds
of paint sprayers on the jobsite.

Wagner makes Spraytech, and is a division of Wagner. *They are
not really relabeled. *Just a different line. *The homeowner
stuff that Wagner makes is garbage, but they do make some
professional equipment.

You know that Black and Decker owns Dewalt, right?

Wagner makes junk and good stuff, Sherwin Williams sells most all
pumps, the best made, Graco, Titan etc.
