I'm fairly new to paint sprayers myself. My stepfather is a professional painter and he loves the Graco brand. I plan to start me a small farm soon. I will be making furniture and other things as a way to generate a side income on the farm. I was looking at this prayer along with brushes & rollers for when the project requires a coat of paint. I like your video as it was very helpful.

I have no experience with the Wagner 350 so I won't be able to advise you on that one. But, seeing that you're a builder, I would suggest you consider the Graco X7 instead of the X5. For around $100 more, you get a little more power (can run longer hoses) and a handy stand. Maybe others on here have used the Wagner and could pipe up on this?

My understanding is that, yes, you can use a sprayer to apply wood stain. HOWEVER, you might not want to. 1) Stain is so thin that, even at the lowest pressure setting, you'll likely have too much coming out of the gun and will be fighting tons of drips and pooling. 2) You'd have to use mineral spirits to clean the sprayer - for a good clean, that's a lot of mineral spirits. 3) The aerosols (of which there are already plenty with oil based materials) will be exacerbated with a sprayer. You'd want a good heavy duty mask with good filters and a well ventilated room. Good luck!

If you are using two or more gallons of paint, "box" them (or mix) all into a 5 gallon bucket. This I'll ensure an even blend between all gallons of paint. If you have 3/4 gallon of the OG color, your color match will be slightly different. It's a different batch #, but same color. (Important to know when painting 400 units.) Always mix all your paint together. Do not cut out of a separate gallon, like the old color, then spray with the new. It will flash, or "picture frame". If it is a new color, there is less chance of flashing, but again, mix 2 or more gallons into a 5 gallon bucket. Boxing into a 5 gallon bucket saves time in the long run, obviously. If the job you are doing he's only going to take a gallon or less then, used to 1 gallon to feed from. Always remember though, the pump holds a small amount of paint and the hose holds a certain amount of paint, depending on the length. This could be up to 1 quart. Factor that in with jobs estimated for a gallon, you may get cut short, in some cases. Just some things to think about, people. Great video for newbs and the DIY types.

It is a huge amount of prep - no doubt. But it made sense for us in this room because we were painting ceiling and walls in a large room. If we'd been smart, we would have painted before installing the new carpet - then our only blue tape would have been around the doors. Live and learn.

I was determined not to spend $1700 to have my basement walls painted by a professional, so I bought the Graco Magnum Painter Plus. Your video, (part 1-start-up), was MOST helpful. I followed your demonstration step by step and was up and running in no time. It took my wife and me two days to mask everything, (we're in our late 70"s), fifteen minutes to perform the start-up, and only three hours to paint the walls. We are extremely happy with our finished product. If you have a big painting project and dread the thought of using a roller and spending days on a ladder I highly recommend the Graco Magnum Painter Plus and watching your videos. Trust me, you'll be happy with the easy results. Your videos are a must watch. Thank you for giving me the confidence to take on something new and making life easier. Great videos!! (By the way, my total cost for the Graco paint sprayer, masking material, and paint was less than $500). Paint on.......

I bought one of those (Graco Magnum X5). Within the first hour of use, the power switch failed. I replaced the switch. While I had the cover off, I noticed that a wire that connects to a control module is poorly installed. There are two very small, flat tabs that the plug connects to. The plug has push clips that hold the plug in place, but there is no plastic part for the clips to clip to. I cut the plug off and soldered the wires in place so the wire wouldn't vibrate off. The main housing moves a little bit, so when I push the prime button, I have to hold the housing in place so that the housing does not interfere with the button. While painting, the sprayer would quit working several times. (Yes, I strained the paint.) Being brand new to paint sprayers, I didn't know if the tip was clogged, something else clogged, or what (It definitely was not sucking air.), so I kept starting over with it from the beginning. During the first couple of days, I spent MUCH, MUCH, MUCH more time trying to get the dang thing to work than I did painting. After the first couple of days, I got to where I could solve its problems more quickly, so that painting with the sprayer finally became time-efficient. You can find recommended sprayer PSI on some paint products, but this sprayer does not have PSI calibration on the dial. Overall, I highly recommend using a sprayer (I don't think I'd recommend this particular model, though.), but you shouldn't expect it to be as easy as sticking the tube in a paint bucket & start spraying.

So crazy, just put all paint in a 5gal bucket (mix the lots too by doing this) with both hose in bucket turn the tip around (rotate around 180 deg)and shoot in the bucket to prime. than once primed shoot as light as possible on the walls. If you pull the trigger and see your paint just dropping in the bucket then your pressure is too high lower it, should drop at a very slow rate takes very little on the walls when spraying. To clean just run about 5-10 gal of just water through it and it will be fine for long term storage they sell some stuff you mix in the water on the last flush it kinda oily just flush good before next use. oh and you can do this on fresh green grass the latex won't kill it just flush with tons of water and all the white will disappear I don't know how many times a customer yell YOUR GOING TO KILL MY GRASS lol I tell them if it dies I will replace the whole thing hahaha

Tips from a 18 year pro. Steps 1 and are a waist of time. Put the suction tube in paint and prime the machine. Your ready to spray. Only time you need to use the drain tube is if the gun gets air in it. It will either spit or lock up in this situation. Then you run the drain to purge the air and your ready to go again. Make sure the suction tube never comes out of the paint ( always fully submerged). Or else you wil get air. Good luck. Oh and make sure the spray tip is always in all the way, or else when you pull the trigger, you will get a face full of paint.

Just got this new toy myself! Can't wait to learn to master it! Thank you for this tutorial and I really like the personality of the guy in this video. Very calm, collected and easy to listen to. Except that he was a bit quiet to hear sometimes

I had to look it up but, yes, some similarities! I found so many crabs that looked very similar when designing our logo. I guess it's the super simple crab design option for us logo doodle amateurs.

Did the one gallon of paint go far using this machine ? And thank you for the video

The paint didn't go nearly as far as it would have if rolling/brushing. But, it did save a ton of time in actual application (not the taping prep).

This is the 2nd time I’ve watched your video, excellent tutorial. My first attempt is outdoors on my wooden fence, enjoying some beautiful weather & expect to give it a go in the next day or two. Great job, thanks. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

when youre doing the purge with the paint can't you do it for 30 seconds or so but just redirect the "waste" tube back into the paint can?

Spraying walls takes longer than rolling walls. We use an 18 inch roller cover. By the time the Graco sprayer covers one 12 inch strip, an 18 inch roller would have covered about one 54 inch strip. Spraying ceilings, crown, trim and base is the real way to use a sprayer

I find that a brush is the best way to paint trim. By the time you tape the entire room up just to spray the trim, you'd have finished brushing and had lunch. You can get a very smooth finish with BM Advance and a good brush with good technique. Trim makes it easy because you're always moving the brush the same direction.

Thanks for the very detailed video for the beginner (me) who is thinking about getting an airless paint sprayer. I did not think it was just "plug and play" and you assured me I do NOT want to go this route! :-) May take me a little longer, but I intend to stay with the brush and roller routine! Have a nice day!

Roger, it's good to know what you're getting into, isn't it? Going the sprayer route is good for certain projects and not for others. We really weighed the prospect heavily before buying as well. Glad the review helped in your decision!
