- Reviewed in Canada on September 25, 2021Verified PurchaseI'm a newbie when it comes to using a sprayer and consider myself a pro diyer and I found this sprayer to be good quality a d easy to use. I used this to spray cabinet grade acrylic paint on a cabinet project. I could see how this might be a bit small for a larger wall. I wish there were instructions that came with, but I figured it out pretty easily. I used this about 5 different times and as long as you clean it out after each use and make sure you thin out your paint just a little then you will be fine. I used older paint with this too that thickened up a bit, just thinned it out a bit more and it was fine. My little 2 gallon air compressor did have a hard time keeping up with the sprayer when I was heavily spraying.
- Reviewed in Canada on October 22, 2019Verified PurchaseA great gun for the money. I just finished spraying out a set of kitchen cabinets with water-based Lacquer and this gun did a flawless job. It's as good as similar guns that I've paid twice the price for. As for those giving it bad reviews because they can shoot plasti dip and walls with it, this gun isn't intended for those applications. The paint must be properly thinned to be effective in this type of gun. It is suited for furniture and cabinet finishes, automotive paints and other paints of similar consistency. Take the time to learn how to properly adjust the airflow, product flow and spray pattern before using it on your final piece. If you need help YouTube has lots of videos.
- Reviewed in Canada on May 26, 2024Verified PurchaseWorks well. Repainted the whole deck in 1 day. Big deck with roof lol
Only pain was to clean it. Almost impossible to put apart for cleaning. Almost stripped one bolt using theirs wrench. Btw that wrench is useless. Stars for gun and performance. Highly recommend
- Reviewed in Canada on May 29, 2023Verified PurchaseI bought it to replace my electric spray that was not tolerant at all when it comes to dilution... But with this one, the spray is always perfect, even if the pressure drops (I experienced this because of a problem with my compressor). The spray lost its strength, but I got no drops, and it remains less powerful but still perfect. So, now I know that even if I use it out of its recommended specifications, it remains very good. I recommed it!
- Reviewed in Canada on January 22, 2019Verified PurchaseI tried to paint my car with this, (PLASTI DIP PAINT) and it was working ok-ish, but some pieces were loose which caused the paintjob to be botchy. I think this is good for a non detailed job. Also handle says MADE IN CHINA, which is not shown on pictures.
- Reviewed in Canada on July 23, 2020Verified PurchaseAfter set-up it was very easy to use and did an excellent job of painting my bedroom furniture, saving me alot of money. Cleanup was simple and the gun works well. Install a regulator on the spray gun. It helps to maintain the pressure so the spray is consistent.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 30, 2025Verified PurchaseDidn't come with theQuick Connect Brass Air Coupler... Paid all that money and couldn't use it. Sent it back.
- Reviewed in Canada on August 14, 2022Verified PurchaseI've used it for painting cabinet doors. Both oil based and water based. Good quality, easy to adjust so that you get a good finish with either thick or thin paint. Well worth the price.
