Thanks Bill, I wish everyone was as efficient as you. 👍👍👍
Thanks for the video man I bought my 350M yesterday desperate to use it and now I know the best method for cleaning it!
I've been going through several buckets of water cleaning my 250M. Hadn't thought to remove the feed hoses and clean them first! First two buckets are instantly polluted with the bozo method.... Thanks!
Yes yes yes!!! This video is absolutely brilliant! I have the 250 version and will be following your advice.
Watched quite a few videos on this sprayer, but you are the first to show me all the parts and how to clean it properly, thank you for that.

Nice Bill. Would love to see a vid of the gun in action and in what circumstances it is more practical than say, a roller. How a bout cut in?
Nice video thanks
Great Video. 👍
Great video, very specific and not the standard "just drive water thru"👍🏻 But I wonder, in a big project anything can happen that makes you wait, maybe 30 minutes to an hour. Do you experience that the 250 can wait som time without be cleaned, or right away you are not spraying, has to be cleaned. Many thanks.
Great video Bill thinking of getting this model Wagner 350, the only thing is thats stoping me as in the UK they do not have a Service Centre so this is the only problem? So I have been looking at the American alternatives but I will see. Whats your view on Wagner as you have one as I would be interested.
Thanks for all your videos. From your experience, what would be the best model and brand to get from all paint sprayers?
Hey Bill love the videos very informative. How do you clean the unit out after using enamel paint? the manual just says use the appropriate cleaning solution
Great video Bill. Did you need to dilute the British Paints Timesaver range (paint and prime in one)?
Hey good job thanks
Thanks for tips and how to brother. Because of your how to videos I got a lot of knowledge. Quick question. Have you done rendering and if you have then is it possible to do a video.
THANKS ALOT
Thank you bill, you’ve taught us all how to use this machine..: ain’t nobody got time for that manual lol Just a question if you use the machine first by spraying primer should it be cleaned before spraying paint?
Thank you for nice snd clear explanation !! 👏👏. Questiion: if I have to spray in the morning and in the evening few days ,, like painting furniture in workshop. it still should be cleaned each time or I could put the gun in buket of water ? Thank you very much !
Awesome vid. I was trying to see whether or not there is a washer between the extension and the tip guard? I’m unsure if I’ve lost something out of it or what but the extension seems to screw pretty far into the guard..? Mines exactly the same as yours. The nut just past the thread seems to go into the guard a bit far?
Would love to see the Pro 150 used and cleaned Bill
Thanx for you tutorial. What do you do with the water whats left in the hose? I use to blow it out with lungpower 💪🏻, can i also blow it out with the machine or is it okay to leave the water inside the hose?
Hi great video i am thinking of getting one of these, I've been looking graco and this one, would you class this as heavy-duty, it could run 6 days a week? can you run cellulose paint with it.
Thanks for a great video Bill, Are you using warm water in the bucket that flushes the unit?
Thanks Bill. I never thought to remove & wash the suction & skinny tubes first before putting them in the clean water. Good tip that I will be doing in the future. I have the 250M & love it. Where do you get your spray tips from?

Can you oil the pump or try preserve the maschin when storing..great vid
Definitely lot better way of cleaning than the official wagner way. I spent 30 minutes following the wagner way. The way shown in this video makes so much sense and much cleaner way to clean the machine. Definitely following this way next time.
Hi. Is the any need to lubricate the wagner. Other machines recommend this , I asked wagner ,n they were pretty vague. They said if I intend putting it away for a long period put some oil in the suction entry . Any ideas. Great video helped me no end. Regards Vic
I had a Graco magnum a45 pro plus just bought this as the peice of crap Graco broke after 3 jobs. With the Graco you have to put pump gaurd in....do you not need pump guard with this machine? Great video by the way....cheers

Any difference with oil based paint? Do you substitute water for mineral spirits and not wash parts in the sink?

Bill, if using oil based paint (stain blocker!), are you simply using thinners in the bucket instead of water? Thanks

@WagnerAustralia

@@beaniebrotha Wagner sells two products suitable for this: 'All Guard' which comes in a 1L bottle, and 'Easy Clean' which is 125mL. (The small bottle is good for about 2 uses). Directions for use: Once you've cleaned up your sprayer, and the water is looking clear, you want to add a bit of the All Guard / Easy Clean to ~1L of clean water. Add enough for the water to change to a nice green colour. To cycle this through your sprayer, place the suction hose into the water/solution mix, and (with the pump set to the 'prime' position), turn up the pressure so it begins to circulate through the pump. Once that is done, we'd recommend switching it over to 'spray', and just spraying a small amount out through the gun (so it's internals are coated too). Finally, release the pressure from the system (by turning the pressure down, switching to prime, and pulling the trigger again), and your sprayer can now be stored away with the solution inside the system. Let us know if any of the above isn't clear.

Thankful for your video The written directions are absolutely horrible. Nothing is in order. Words are left out of sentences and now I have to unlearn what I read in directions and reprogram my brain to Your “most helpful video”. Thank you for taking the time to put this video together for people like me who learned the wrong way from the directions that came with Wagner sprayer so I can be a pro, too!

Great video but maybe not wash paint in a basin ?
Why go for the 350 M over the 250 M? Is 350 M worth the ekstra35%?
How to clean oil paint, any tipes?
I was wondering how it would go if one would start and end with suction of clean water, maybe with the garden hose waterpressure to release the paint pump. Start-up: One would connect the garden hose on the suction hose, turn on the water, set the switch first to prime then to spray, without running the pump, release the pistol and spray clean water with the pressure of the watersystem, when the wagner sytem is full with water, disconnect the waterhose and put the suctionhose into the paintbucket, then turn on the pump on the low pressure and start spraying in a bucket until paint comes. Cleaning: Take the suction hose out of the paint bucket, put in a clean water bucket or connect the gardenhose again and continue spraying, maybe on a wall that has still to be done, when the water comes the system is clean. Afterwards offcoarse clean the outside of everything. I just don't like it if a high pressure pump like this sucs air.
