Hi

I purchased a Cuprinol Power Sprayer at the weekend, it was half price in my
local B&Q. I have a 9 litre tub of Cuprinol Ducksback with approx half
left. It states in bold that this is not suitable for spraying. Is this due
to the consistency? Guess I can't water this down and use this in the power
sprayer can I?

Might be the wax additive in this particular product too?

Suggest you take the sprayer back before you use it as they are not
fit for purpose. I too bought it for £9 via a pricematch a few months
ago. Complete waste of time even with the Cuprinol own brand
sprayable. It covered around half a panel before the nozzle blocked
up. In the end I took the nozzle off and laid the new panels on the
ground. I used the device to just pump the preservative onto the
panels before brushing manually to cover the panel.

After painting all the panels I sold the sprayer at a car boot for a
fiver. The chap said he wanted to spray creosote with it so wasn't
likely to block up. I didn't argue nor question him breathing in the
creosote mist and took the £5. I suppose the £4 it cost me was kinda
worth it for me not having to dip brush in said preservative 100's of
times!

I have one, and have had no problems with it. Works very well, and no
blockages.
