What sprayer do you think has the highest output for commercial production .thx

@theCOATINGlife

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment toughest tools, that is a hard question to answer as it greatly depends on what type of products you need to spray. I would look for a gun that has dual output and that can handle two triggers at the same time which comes available at 695, 795 as well as in the larger pumps. It also depends on how much hose you’re hoping to run. If you’re looking for a pump that’s able to spray level five then you will need a Mk V or may be a 1595. Hope this helps, let me know if there’s any other information I can provide.

You might be able to spray the water-based line paint if you dilute it and water it down. Overtime it’s not ideal. My recommendation would be to buy a used gas powered Linepainting unit from an auction or something like that. One of the challenges would be power, running extension cords across the parking lot, also for long lines to use stencils. Hope this helps, Best of luck!

We have a Alkyd Enamel with 57% solids. Would you recommend the King or another machine?

@theCOATINGlife

8 ай бұрын

Great question, Dulux (PPG Paints) has a product 4336 which is a Alkyd enamel is about 50 to 52%. It calls for a 13-15 tip. A Graco 490 should be able to spray it. If it’s a bigger job then you may want to use a 795. They also have a product called 7-Line Alkyd. It’s 58% solids. Calls for a 15 or 17 tip, so spraying with any airless from a 490 and up should work. A King would be over kill but if you already have it and it’s a huge job and you want to run very long lines and multiple triggers than that would work as well. Hope this helps. 😃

Thanks for the reply. We have a problem spraying with an airless because of the amount of overspray and material deposited. We are spraying 2" metal pipe (vertical and horizontal) outdoors. We are looking at the Triton pump air system and also the Merkur system both are the air option. Which would you recommend for spraying Sherwin Williams Macropoxy 646 / Acrolon 218 HS and the heavier solids outdoors in the wind. Thank you@@theCOATINGlife

@theCOATINGlife

8 ай бұрын

@user-ey9mu8wu9w I don’t have any experience with the Triton, but we have used the Merker with the PPG equivalent for the Sherwin williams products. It took a little while to dial in the sprayer to where I was satisfied with the finish & material used, etc.. we had to dilute the product a fair bit. I would not use the king if over spray is an issue though the king can spray almost anything all day with out being diluted.
