The grounding is primarily to stop solvent vapour explosion. Static build up is the same for water or solvent but water doesn't ignite!

Hey, I’ve just bought my quick shot set up! I love it… I don’t love how difficult it is to put the bloody lid on the cup… is there a trick, I feel like it cross threads like a mo fo. Do I need to push it down first, then turn? It seems the only way… I nearly shot the apprentice, then I found I really struggled with it too. Fortunately I caught it before it leaked everywhere.

Just bought one. If you plan on spraying any type of primer I suggest using bigger orifice tips. Doesn't work well with tips that come with it.

2.12 tip is for door frames. 2 inches at one foot. I use a 3.10 for base and crown oil base . Plus pressure is to high needs to be way lower ..such a mall hole will blow orpbis out ..and the green tips aren't cheap.

I dont buy a sprayer bevore ive seen a video how to repack it. Is it possible?

Can you spray latex paints?

Is this available as a bare tool? I have a bunch of dewalt batteries and I’m sure those batteries are driving up the cost.

Can you use a sealer to spray sealer on studs to keep mold from coming back? It's like a mold blocker or kilz. If so, do I use a grounder cord. I have to use a paint thinner to clean other devices so wanted to know if I can use this. Thank you.

Great video. And Hi there. To anybody really. Not really a big painter myself. Only a DIYer. But.. I have a couple of jobs/fences lined up to paint and would like a half decent sprayer. Ideally would mainly be stains to be used but was wondering if masonry paint could be used through the quickshot too. Both jobs are long picket fences so a tedious process with a brush. Don’t know if I’m just being lazy or not. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

@PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo

Hi there most masonry paints are a bit to thick to run well through a handheld type airless as they need a large tip, you may be able to make it work with some thinning but you would be pushing the pump pretty hard to make it work, and it may not work depending on the product you would end up spraying

Depends a bit for the most control and potential finish quality the turbines are great but they do require more dialing in the quickshot is much more foolproof but not quite as controllable

I did just look up the owners manual for this sprayer and it does show how to remove the pump. That possibly means it is replaceable. I don't know why they would show you this on page 8 just to take pump out and throw sprayer away. I did not however find out where the replaceable pumps are and how much they are. Financially speaking, if you charge $200 for every job you spray one gallon (prob make more than 200) and you spray a total of 150 gallons, that's a profit of $30,000. Even if thrown out, it makes money fast & easy vs brush/roll.

2 things i don't understand about the quick shot, 1: its under 3 gallons per job, what happens if over 3 gallons, 2:and the pump itself only designed for 150-200gallons total use, is that means it can only last for 150-200 gallons paint usage ?

@PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo

Жыл бұрын

Hi Ryan you can use it for a job bigger than 3 gallons it just not meant to be your primary spray rig that you spray 50 gallons a week through with the pump total usage is what it is engineered for before it needs rebuilt or replaced , the reference of 2 to 3 gallons per job and total volume before repair is to give you an idea of what the rig is meant for so you have realistic expectations when considering it as a option

@simonhuss9619

Жыл бұрын

As you said yes its only expected to last 150 gallons, all of these small handheld sprayers are for small jobs i.e woodwork really small areas, the pumps are consumables, and need replacement after small workloads and when packing system breaks down, compared to a full size unit, the spray section in big unit are completely rebuildable, i.e packings pistons can be replaced and are built to last the long haul, these are good machines if you want to hemorrhage money, but a full size unit will always give you more return for your investment

How many gallons is the graco 390 meant to spray before it needs to be rebuilt?

Something that I'm not clear on. At about 3:30, you said that the machine is good for about 200 gallons TOTAL use. Do you mean by this that at about 200 gallons that the machine dies? Or did you mean a max of 200 gallons before you need to give the machine a rest and service it? I started seeing this as a way to do inside of cupboards and closets, but then started thinking that it'd be great for cutting out. Then I imagined that it would be nice for doors, and while we're at it, why not ceilings and walls? Every one of my jobs, for two coats takes about 10 gallons. Do I have to worry that about 20 jobs in that the machine is dead?

@Shanyet

4 ай бұрын

The pump is rated for up to 200 gallons. That means that after 200 gallons of material you can expect to need a new one. But it could be more or less. The pumps on these machines are replaceable though. They are priced somewhere between 100 and 200 dollars and are very easy to change.

1. Fluid moving through a conduit creates static electricity. Solvents are highly flammable. The grounding wire is to keep a static spark from exploding the gun in your hand. 2. You jumped from starting to explain priming and went straight into cleaning. ??? 3. I've had the 360 for several years: Zero leaks & zero problems priming it. 4. Priming the pump has nothing to do with hose length. 5. Never keep spraying water through the tip.

so after 150-200 gallons or so you have to buy another machine or rebuild it ?

@FEV369 this thing isn't meant for spraying whole rooms, it's meant for smaller projects you don't want to have to buy 2 gallons to feed the lines when you only need a gallon. I've had multiple times doing cabs with my 440 where I needed to get an extra gallon of primer and paint so my siphon had enough to sit in and not run dry. This would be perfect because you don't need the extra. My 440 takes a ¼gal to prime the machine, this thing only needs 2 ounces. I would much rather carry this thing in to do my bases than lug in my 440 for 20 minutes worth of spraying. I would much rather carry this thing up a flight of stairs than my 440 if I'm doing trim and doors in an upstairs lived in residential. They both have their uses. If I'm in need of spraying an entire room I don't want to have to change a battery 6 times to finish, I'd rather use the 440. I don't understand what you're saying.

I have the other handheld and it's too bulky, I bought it because of this exact scenario, I had my 440 being used elsewhere and I had a upstairs of trim and doors to do, should I cancel or make money wait so I can go get my 440?

@@phuhque6724 Last time, and then I need you to know I'm done talking to people like you on the internet... I don't give a fuuuuuck about there being a small unit... As I said, WHY can't they make one that is bigger? Are you capable of understanding this? Almost no one needs a tiny unit, but go ahead, make them... The question is why can't we get a bigger unit with a gravity fed hopper on it so that you don't have to physically suck the paint up a tube "priming" the system because your fighting gravity. There is simply less issues when gravity fed hoppers are used over sucking paint out of a bucket based on all reality. So I ask again, why can't we get a bigger hopper?

Oh my goodness (* don't believe in God *) You make such a mess of everything. When you use waterbase paint start with a bucket of water an a sponge. Also a brush to clean the paint can an not let everything dripping of the edge. When you clean the gun don't spray in your filters. Do it in a bucket...maybe put a few toilerpaper, paper towels our what ever in the bucket. Also, the dripping of the gun is not done. Sorry to say but if I see this I think please stop.

150 gallons up to 200gallons hmmmm this airless is definitely solid for trim, doors and cabinets but 150-200 isn’t much. I wonder how are is it to rebuild bc replacing a 1400 machine is not worth it every so often
