looking for brands/models for DIY homeowner spray unit for thick latex

All past units I have ever tried would not spray thick paints without
lots of thinning and were monsters to clean after the job.

anything new out there?

Yes... One driven by an actual air compressor... Which is an
actual paint sprayer... Not one of those hand-held paint pumpers
with a power cord and paint reservoir...

If you don't want to buy one of your own they are available to be
rented while you need them for a project...

How thick is the latex paint ?

The Magnum (made by Graco) airless sprayers at Home Depot work pretty well.
No need to thin it if you get at least 3/4 HP.
