I have been painting with this a bit more and I am actually shocked how well it worked for a cheap unit like that. I would not say it was contractor unit but for a homeowner unit I think it works pretty well and I would pick it over every sprayer I have used under $500.....it actually would work great with a longer line and better gun setup.

[@rena10009]

thank G-d for you man. thanks for the veteran sprayer wisdom. saved me hours of second guessing.

[@MrC9Oh3]

I have a graco x5 I have used for 3 years. I've painted numerous exteriors. Stained over 30 fences, painted many cabinets and built ins, doors you name it. Still running strong. I can't believe it. When I bought it the manager at SW told me it wouldn't last, he was wrong lol. Also running a 75ft hose on it, the same manager told me the pump couldn't handle it.

[@mikethepainter]

yea this seems like a x5 copy.

[@mazkaibil9108]

The valve recommendation...wow! I've seen videos and yeah I can see what you explained. Thank you for this video and sharing your knowledge! BTW I liked and subscribed!

[@MelissaHarney]

Thank you for this video. Had no clue how to use my vevor sprayer

[@fourjayshutalla]

Thanks, Mike, for the tutorial video.

[@a1hamer]

Awesome video Can't thank you enough No frills no fuzze Subbed

[@adriancarey7848]

Really helpful video - thanks

[@tonychavarria3278]

My friend and I really enjoyed your channel.would like to see more of this keep up the amazing work.wish to work with you some day

[@scottdecoster4002]

Been here long enough to know this was painful for you. Good demonstration and good advice on how not to ruin it.

[@pcofranc]

Awesome, watched a bunch of videos and you covered important stuff like releasing the pressure before moving the valve. Thanks. I'm going to buy the Vevor instead of the Graco X5 at Home Depot.

[@wildmanofborneo]

Hi did you like the Vevor?

[@mikethepainter]

I certainly would buy one of these. it is a DEAL....stay tuned for more how to paint your own house videos.

[@mr.toyman1630]

Or just let the pressure out before turning it on each time?

[@joseluisvalenzuela5310]

Lucky me I’ve never removed the pressure before turning it back to prime and also never changed the valve. Good to know for the future

[@mikethepainter]

yea it will work for a while but after that it just goes out and needs to be replaced.

[@johndock9164]

👍

[@bolarsen3983]

we got one, and I dosen't work at all. The inline filter can't get in the hole, it Is loose inside the grip, and we need to make the paint so thin before the machine can spray it out. can you help os?

[@mikethepainter]

the inline filters that come with the unit are really crap. I bought another one But they are a tight fit in the gun. They sort of press in there. once paint is in the line they stay in place. You may need to thin and strain the paint no more than 15% but probably about that to get it to pick up. The screen is pretty fine. Put it on the prime run the motor for a bit....then turn it off and switch to spray. Pull the trigger and keep it on spray until paint comes through the line. at the spray gun. then put on the spray nozzle set the pressure. Also it will not run until you turn the pressure nob up so turn up the pressure nob until it starts running.

[@mr.toyman1630]

Make sure the pressure is out of the line before cleaning or priming?

[@mikethepainter]

good practice to do it anytime you are switching that valve. priming or cleaning. Priming it usually does not have pressure but cleaning it always will. Best to stick that spray nozzle in a bucket and pull the trigger to create the habit.

[@kuehnel16]

I need to paint my mobile home . Would this handle the job

[@mikethepainter]

yes I would get one of these for any house paint.

[@1stClassJaY2010]

Did u have to add oil ??? I have the same unit its saying add oil daily???

[@mikethepainter]

no place to do that on this unit.

[@AD-kq6xm]

Flat Tip Washer 1/8 per trovarle in Italia ?

[@mikethepainter]

dont know that but they are available at most paint stores in the US.

[@travisduncan3516]

Do you think that cheap spray rig would run a hundred feet athose

[@mikethepainter]

maybe A GUY HAD 75FT...on the graco x5 and it worked perfect he said. basically the same rig.

[@geekyjerry]

Customer service stated that 50ft is the max

[@bingobunga8995]

One of my good friends sold his quadplex to this stupid woman and she hired the cheapest painters she could find. They sprayed the whole exterior in a day and did a horrible job it started to peel off the doors the next day because they sprayed latex over oil base and got overspray everywhere. I’ve never seen such horrible work in my life and those guys walked away with 4 grand in their pockets from that 💩 job they did. The property manager which is a neighbor would’ve gladly done it for half that price and done a decent job. Obviously he wouldn’t have done it in a day since he’s in his 60s and is still recovering from knee surgery but for a couple extra days it would’ve been a good job unlike those hacks. But this lady is clueless and doesn’t understand how to operate rentals. Not only HO’s need to see this but new guys getting started in the business need it too. Thanks Mike 👍🏻

[@mikethepainter]

Oh yea they are out there.

[@bingobunga8995]

@@mikethepainter not only are they out there, they are everywhere in the state of Florida. It’s horrible and there’s no state license to stop these bottom feeders or at least slow them down. Yea sure some counties/municipals require their own license to work in that town/county but it’s not state wide so it’s pointless and it’s stupid cause guys in those areas can charge 3-5x as much as compared to the rest of the state just because you need the license to operate and so they only stay in those small areas. It’s great for them if they live there and sucks for everyone else who’s competent in the trade and has to compete with bottom feeder prices. Another thing is all these gated retirement communities have their own separate regulations for trades which is even dumber so to work in ONE gated community you need to have all this bs paperwork filed with the HOA and the prices for labor skyrocket so what do the HO’s do? They sneak guys in for the lower prices. Give em the code for the gate write their name on the list and they go work in there unlicensed and unregistered anyway. F$&king STUPID. So I don’t just paint I gotta do everything. I’m waiting for the day a painter gets regulated like a plumber or an electrician here STATEWIDE. General Contractor license doesn’t matter either when there’s so little regulation because HO’s will avoid hiring those guys to save a little bit of money and 3/4 of the GCs are hacks anyway. I’ve had to come in to fix GC’s work bc they got fired bc they didn’t know wtf they were doing and screwed up a kitchen or a bathroom. I sub out work that requires a license and I add my 10% to their price. But Florida is for the most part like the Wild West. That’s why they got bridges and condos collapsing and sink holes all the time cause of piss poor planning and sloppy half assed work. Having a reputation is worth more than its weight in gold when you get in with the right groups of people.

[@Mike-qo4kp]

​@@bingobunga8995whether or not you hire someone with a license means very little and definitely does not guarantee quality work or a fair price. My friend just got hit for 15k to reside a chimney with t1-11. 8 sheets total. Painting a house is well beyond the scope of homeowners. Handymen and Carpenters siders plumbers as well. Adding an airless does NOT make the job easier by any means. Airless sprayers are a tool production painters need to keep labor costs down and stay competitive price wise.

[@mikethepainter]

@@bingobunga8995 I watched a guy from across the street spray a house like he was chasing flies. It was funny as hell. His wife came out and The whole yard was BLUE.....Sidewalks.....every plant. I laughed so hard. And it was all covered.

[@basketballmaven1454]

graco x5/x7

[@mikethepainter]

yea looks like the same rig and packings. works OK for a cheap $150 sprayer

[@prolifeunity]

Yes, we know, it's not a professional painter! If I took a shot of whiskey every time you say that this video, I'd be drunk!

[@tonychavarria3278]

I don't want to be a smart aleck Mike but it's actually the X5

[@mikethepainter]

Yea your right. the old magnum was the x9 then they came out with the other ones. I never paid attention to them because the were not commercial units. But when this one came out for less than $150 it got my attention. at 400 or more they seem pretty useless. but at 150 it is not too bad and great for a backup or homeowner.

[@tonychavarria3278]

Yes sir I agree the vevor products are new on me I recently purchased a pot system from Beaver it seems to be of of good construction certainly doesn't feel cheap anyway I will definitely keep my options open for something like that thanks for the heads up brother

[@MrC9Oh3]

That actually looks like a graco x5 copy

[@mikethepainter]

I think it is. and it works decent for $150

[@MrC9Oh3]

@@mikethepainter cheaper than am x5.. atleast for now

[@prolifeunity]

17 minutes later, halfway through the video, and all you've done is hook up a hose.

[@mikethepainter]

sorry bud there is a LOT to know about airless. Not going to learn it in 10 minutes.

[@prolifeunity]

You spent most of the first 10 minutes complaining about it. I wish you would just focus on why we came to this video, how to use it.

[@travisduncan3516]

That's a cheap ass gun they're old man

[@mikethepainter]

yea for the homeowner it is fine. so many people cant afford us anymore.

[@mcats8]

My God dude, you talk too much. It took you twenty minutes before you got on to the operation of this unit which is why I clicked in the first place.

[@mikethepainter]

no way to give the readers digest version of how to use an airless paint sprayer in 10 minutes. too much information to know. It takes the average person more than 5 years to learn how to properly spray. and most after that still dont know what they are doing. you need to spend 3 to 4 hours watching my videos of me spraying to know the very basics. If your too impatient for that.....HIRE A CONTACTOR.....

[@baba-sm1fm]

Too long of an explanation man!! Wasted my time and hardly learned anything
