Thank you for this, I wasted a good hour finding a video, with real, true steps on using this machine! For someone who has never used anything other than a brush and roller, this video is it, amazing job explaining ❤ (I had no clue why there was 2 hoses and what the water was for 😂) oh then it stopped almost when I was done and you also explained why!! 😅 thank you so so so much!! ❤

Hey, i have a question. So when you clean the lines and stuff. How do you get rid of the water thats in the machine? After clearing all the paint out?
@DrinksandDIYwithSuzy
2 ай бұрын
For short-term storage (up to 2 days), the water stays in the line. But for long-term storage (more than 2 days), you use pump armor storage fluid in the lines instead. This is because water will corrode and damage the pump long-term.

I recommend checking out www.graco.com/us/en/homeowner/how-to-buy/tipselector.html - depending on your paint type, application, and width you want to cover/spray, it will recommend what to use. In this video, I used the 517 (the widest at 10") for interior paint. Usually the 515 and 517 are my go-to, and are also good with most primers and interior or exterior paints.

I am beyond grateful that I came across your page. I have spent countless hours trying to determine which sprayer I wanted to invest in. I purchased a Wagner 3500 today but really wanted to invest in the magnum because I didn’t need to thin my paint before using. I was a little intimidated with the idea of the magnum because it seemed so technical . You my dear have given me the confidence to go to Lowe’s tomorrow and make that purchase. Thank you for taking the time to explain in detail step by step how to use and clean this product. You have a new subscriber and I hope to learn more with you, God bless.

Turn tip to PAINTING and start testing

Why the water? Could you prime with the paint .
@DrinksandDIYwithSuzy
9 ай бұрын
If there is any debris caught in the sprayer, the low viscosity of water will be easier to help clear the piping and prime your system.
@DrinksandDIYwithSuzy
9 ай бұрын
I should add: priming with water is for water-based paints. You want to prime with mineral spirits for oil based paints. Additionally - storing the sprayer should be primed with pump armor storage fluid, because water can corrode the pump if left to sit in the machine long-term.

Is the system stored with water in it?
@DrinksandDIYwithSuzy
10 ай бұрын
Short term storage, that's fine. But if you're not using it frequently, I recommend storing it using pump armor, cleaning the filters, spray tips, and main gun. When not using it frequently, the pump can malfunction unless storing it with pump armor. Graco has some helpful storage videos that go through the full details. Hope that helps! Thanks for your question.

Was hoping you might answer a question for me. From your experience, what is the longest you can wait between coats before you worry about the paint drying in the spray tip and tubes etc ... I am going to paint a small boat with mine and I have to wait a minimum 2 hours between coats. Can the sprayer sit idle for 2 hours without causing issues.
@DrinksandDIYwithSuzy
Жыл бұрын
I would definitely clean it between coats. I think even with a quick drying paint, it would still be too long to let it sit without cleaning the sprayer between coats. It takes a little bit to figure out, but the more you use it, the faster and easier the cleanup gets. In my opinion, it's always better to be on the safe side to ensure you'll have the perfect finish on the second coat. :)
