Paint Sprayer Recommendations?
I have to paint the interior of 2 rental units next week - any
recommendations on sprayers available at Home Depot or Lowes? I have used a hand-held HVLP unit, but I keep having to refill the quart canister with thinned paint, so I want a unit that I can dip a fill tube into a 5 gallon pail of latex paint and spray away. Will be using for other rental units in the future also. Any suggestions? Thanks - Jim |

At HD 1/2hp, 35' hose 198 (talk to thecustomer service people at get it knoked down to 178 because that's what the HD website has it for) At lowes you get a 3/8 hp with a 25" hose for 199. http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS...n.0& MID=9876 http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...page=none&bc=c |

I have used mine to spraypaint rentals, block walls, cats, all sorts of things. They are awesome, once you understand about airless sprayers, and take the necessary preparations.

I agree with Steve. I have had a Graco for over 25 years and have not had
one bit of trouble. I bought it as a Sherwin Williams spray painter but it is a Graco and you can get them now at Home Depot. |

I have Graco at HD...(might even rent them) Does interior mean ceilings, etc? We just painted two homes, ceilings, walls, door jams, garages, etc..... nothing went unpainted! A great job too. Ensure a proper clean-up of the machine before storage. Use the 5 gallon paint screens to strain the paint. Oren At this moment I do not have a personal relationship with a computer.
