Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching, Another older video here on the same kzread.info/dash/bejne/dGeWpsmgabqan5c.html

i dont put my return hose from my airless in the paint, i have it in a 4l tin beside my suction pickup, also when it comes to cleaning the airless out,its less water,or turps needed try some time ,i was shown this by a irish painter years ago,and its a good trick

What you use to clean?

dirty turps? as in turpentine?

For doing wicker furniture, do you recomend a short hose, like a 2 meter whip?

I just did around 20 wicker furniture, chairs and tables for a wedding , i used oil based undercoat and two coats of taubmans all weather, I finished them all in one day, I think a whip would be handy but not essential, I just put drop sheets on the ground and moved the furniture around to get to the hard to reach spots.

​@ThePa1nterhowto awesome info, thanks. I've watched your oil clean-up videos. So, basicly, you are using a 3 stage (dirty to clean) wash process?

Yes, I'm using the acrylic paint after the oil to fully clean the inside of the gun after my normal cleaning process.

What was the filter taken out around 7:30? Is it recommended to have any special equipment when using oil based compared to any other paint for spraying through a machine? If so where might one find replacement filters?

That's a standard wagner filter in the handpiece,I buy mine in bulk on ebay usually. Spraying oil based is not realy for the amateur, lots can go wrong, runs will be your biggest enemy but a mohair roller sleeve can fix that

If I'm not using for a few months,do you reckon it's OK to run diesel through it and just leave the gun sealed in water bucket?

I don't leave diesel in it but after the diesel, water then seal the gun, no problems

What does the oil base one step spray like.

Beautiful, I've never had a run, don't need to thin it, and no special tips needed

What spray machine is good for spraying oil based? I need something with less power to spray oil. My normal sprayer has too much overspray with oil paints

I don't know what you have, I believe all sprayers can handle oil paints, if your getting overspray , maybe your paint is to thin or too much pressure

@@ThePa1nterhowto I run a Graco 395 it has smart control settings as well. It does celling and walls great. But I'm not sure how to turn down the pressure when doing doors and woodworks
