Campbell Hausfeld states this sprayer is perfect for commercial and home maintenance, these sprayers are built to last. They list their contractor grade sprayer as Model PS6521 which is designed for fast spraying of large buildings.

This has been answered before check answer in1949 model sprayers. If you are going to use the sprayer a lot go for the more expensive one. This is a great sprayer it will last for a long time. Hard to find usually only at higher end suppliers stores or online. I have a termite control business and have put many different pesticides through it oil base, powered base, water base with no problems.

I didn't rad the specs before I bought. Says it's good up to about 2700. My sprayer is 3100 and it hasn't blown up yet, but takes some pressure to keep it on the ground. Does a great job just the same.

I would not waste my time with this Paint Sprayer. I found the paint or stain has to be so thin it becomes all most useless.

Yes. For all sprayers you need to thin paint. I used this sprayer to do a fence in solid stain and that had to be thinned. It worked great once I got the right viscosity which was easy to accomplish with the provided measurement bucket and viscosity cup. Also, check the paint manufacturer's ratio for thinning which should be on the can.

If you are going to use a very thin product like a stain, it should work fine. However, this sprayer does not handle thicker products well at all. You would have to dilute paint quite a bit to make it function. This sprayer is better suited to a smaller project than a deck. I would invest more money in a better quality sprayer to use it on something of that size. I ultimately returned mine because it did not work well at all, plus the contatiner was cracked so it leaked everywhere.

Yes it sure can, I even repaired a cool deck texture around a Spa. Just a note. I wouldn't do a house or lrg area just because the hopper doesn't really hold a lot of mud. This unit is really designed for the smaller jobs both outside / inside. But the sprayer will hold & spray the thicker stucco - let it set, then trowel down for your texture. Hope this helps..

The answers is yes BUT. I bought this sprayer to paint the vertical walls of a garage and what ever mistakes I made did not show up. I did not paint the ceiling with this sprayer, but I could have. The areas I sprayed did well. The tube inside the container has to be in a position to use up the paint or it is many trips up & down the ladder. It depends on the size of your project. I am satisfied the with this sprayer for the size of my project. I would have bought a better sprayer for a bigger project.

Even regular exterior and interior house paints are better "boxed", that is, thinned with 1 gallon of water per 5 gallons of paint when using sprayers. This sprayer does a perfect job with that technique. We don't believe there is a sprayer that would perform well with thick texture paints. Hope this helps.

I used it to paint a large shed and it made short work of it. I tried to roll it but had difficulty because of the sidings textured surface. After getting the sprayer the job was finished much faster and consumed much less paint.Ceilings may be difficult because of the position of the draw from the reservoir. Pointing the sprayer up to spray the eaves required frequent topping of the reservoir.

this is a high pressure sprayer and with any sprayer it is possible to over spray you will have to mask off areas to get crisp lines just like with any other sprayer my unit arrived in good condition with new hoses and spray gun and tip and worked as well as any other sprayer I have used. I have only used this unit indoors so wind was not an issue but it was very controllable and quick. it is as good as any other sprayer on the market

This is not the right spray gun to paint walls. I use it for small projects and touch up jobs (only oil paint) Bedside table or chairs etc. Cheers George.

Yes, this sprayer can handle light or heavy solids material. Deck stain would be no problem. I have had mine for about one year with no problems.

This is a commercial sprayer used in construction mainly, waterproofing masonry,concrete etc..In my opinion to heavy to carry across the lawn , it does not require a different nozzle, sprays like any other sprayer , you can get different nozzles with different angles if you want.

Yes, just about any paint that you can think of can be put through this sprayer. The real real question is "should it be used for house painting." The answer is no and the reason is simple. Tp paint a house, you need a thicker coat of paint and a much larger reservoir than the single quart that this unit offers. This unit is excellent for jobs such as painting patio furniture, a child's wagon, etc. For a house you should look into an airless paint sprayer which pumps a thicker coat of paint through the paint nozzle (and with a wider spray pattern).

No. It is only for doing texture finishes like popcorn,orange peel etc...Wagner does have paint sprayers that are excellent though.
