I had a cheap little 'airless' paint sprayer bought in France a while
ago and found it handy for certain jobs. It has now gone astray so
I'm looking for a replacement, requirements (or 'nice to have') as
follows:-

Reasonably priced (i.e not hundreds of pounds, my French one was
40 Euros I think)

Easy to clean with minimal use of liquid as this will be used away
from home (often on a boat) away from bulk washing facilities

It would be *really* nice to have a 'wand' to make it easy to
spray into awkward corners

Either 12 volts or less than 300 watts mains powered so I can tun
it from my 500 watt inverter (copes with 200 watt multi-tool OK).

Any ideas? It's not for super professional finish, more for getting
paint into every nook and cranny.

Just searching around it seems that 12 volt compressors aren't all
*that* expensive so compressor + pressure paint sprayer might make
sense. Any/all ideas most welcome.

You need a vast amount of air to spray things - unless a tiny area. HVLP
(basically a fan) is much more efficient than a conventional compressor.

OK, so I want an HVLP sprayer, at least one thing is decided. :-)

Thanks.

At the moment a Wagner W100 (or W550 as sold by Argos seems the same)
would appear to be a candidate, any comments?
