Airless Paint Sprayers Information |

Welcome to our little site about airless paint sprayers and airless spray
painting. We just want to share some information with you that we have learned
over the years while using airless paint equipment. We just started this site
(check back often) and work on it when we have time and aren't experts at web
sites so please excuse the missing shiny glitz and animated stuff that most
sites seem to have these days.
We will write about a few of the sprayer models we use and have used, some of
the common parts that need to be replaced once in awhile. We will also talk
about some of the accessories we found along the way that are helpful and make
painting with an airless easier and faster. If we find enough time down the road, we'll be able to provide some pictures and instructions on how to
change-out some parts.
Most of the sprayers we have experience with are "mid-tier" or smaller ones
so that is what we'll speak about mostly, but we'll try to touch on a few of the
big ones later like my friends Graco 1095. Our favorite sprayer for bigger jobs
is a Graco ultra 495, keeping in mind painting a house inside and out is a big
job to us. We have a Titan 440 (I?) we use too, but mostly for a backup as it is
getting tired (bought it used on EBay. For
remodel work (1, or 2 rooms) we usually use the Magnum xr 7 because we can clean
it out faster with a garden hose. For little stuff like spraying a roll up
garage door we have a graco dx that will easily fit in the trunk of our car and
also can be cleaned out with a hose.
We found a good place to get paint
sprayer parts for Graco paint sprayers called
portlandcompressor.com. They sell paint
sprayers plus air compressors and pressure washers. They are basically a spray
mall for anything related to airless and air-assisted spraying, and they have really
good prices on new spray pumps and even have the gigantic ones for painting
skyscrapers. They also seem to be able to get parts for older models that our
paint store "can't get". We have found that most of the large box stores don't have
much and charge more.
If you are looking for a new paint sprayer for touch-up jobs like
garage doors, trim, etc...check out the new TrueCoat by Graco. There are
3 different versions of the paint sprayer, one battery powered and two
different electric options. For more information, check out the
TrueCoat.net website, they seem
to provide some pretty good info on the airless.
Well gotta go for now, more later.
Thanks for visiting our site!
