VEVOR AIRLESS PAINT SPRAYER - amzn.to/3PMXuxt

[@loccomoffo1000]

Thanks for the vid, I've used PVA wood glue before to seal porous asbestos/timber, 1 part PVA to 3 parts water, then sprayed with single coat of paint. it stopped the paint being sucked up into the surface and gave me extra coverage.

[@JustinsProject]

Never thought of that before. I do worry about the water swelling the OSB, though. Even water baded paint causes a little issue. I should use oil based primer/sealer and then paint with waterbourne products. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻

[@jfruser]

Thank you for shooting the video. 1. Which is faster, Spray+Mask vs Roll? is the question, every time. 2. Every time I paint a work area for myself, I use the BRIGHTEST WHITE I can get, to improve lighting. 3. I would have done 1 coat primer, 1 coat paint, like I did in my garage last time.

[@JustinsProject]

It would have been best to use a primer first (oil-based) on the OSB but I took the risk of just going with water-based paint from start to finish. It worked out pretty well for the most part. I am not sure if masking everything and then spraying was any faster. Honestly, it might have taken me longer 😂 But in the end, I am happy with it.

I personally feel all the money spent on smaller units and that expensive tc pro you could have got you a good 395 brother. Pros are it’s a lot quieter and you don’t have to crank the pressure up as high as you do on the smaller units which saves material. I started with a lts 17’which is the exact same as the x5 just lowes version but now lowes sells the x5 as well when that unit burned up I got the x5 when that one burned up I got a prox17 which can actually have the pump replaced . It was a nice unit . They all were and all lasted a good amount of time and definitely paid for themselves . I still recommend them if money is tight and you need an airless . They are solid units as long as you clean them out good and store them properly . I always stored mine with paint thinner . Storing them with water will rust out the parts inside and if it gets cold will freeze inside the unit . Paint thinner will keep the inside lubricated and won’t freeze . I’m sure you know that but this info is for someone who might not brother . If you have the money for a good solid unit that will last years and years and probably the rest of your life a graco 395 would be the lowest I would start at and really what most pros use who are doing residential . You don’t need anything bigger unless you wanna run to spray guns and are doing huge commercial jobs . The only thing I change on my rig is the hose I have a hose I use to spray oil base and one I use for latex . I’m to scared to spray lacquer with all the explosion stories .another good thing about the graco 395 as opposed to the x5 and project painter and the one your showing here is the motor is enclosed . So with the smaller units it’s good to keep them in another room behind plastic as you spray or the over spray gets sucked into the unit as well and ruins it faster and with the 395 I still keep it secluded from where I’m spraying but if I can’t the motor I’m enclosed and will never get any of the other over spray that the fan sucks in over it . . How do you like your tc pro ? Thinking about buying one myself as it would have came In handy recently when I had 1 ceiling to spray where the house had no power . And it was popcorn. I got away with rolling it quickly before the popcorn got wet enough to start pulling off

[@JustinsProject]

All good advice for sure. I like testing out a lot of different tools. For the money I paid for Graco TC, I am not very impressed. When it works, it's a great tool, but the cup loses seal after I get it primed and stops spraying a lot now, which is annoying. I used it mostly in trim boards and interior doors. I think I need a new cap on the cup to fix the problem. Probably $30 solves it. So, it's not bad I guess. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻

[@New-Breed-Drywall-And-Paint]

@@JustinsProject Man preach brother , preach ! I use the corded version of the tc pro , and you ain’t lying . It sprayed good for a bit and then I started having the same exact issues . One thing about them units Is you have to make sure you clean them with the screen on and strain your paint always cause once you get a piece of trash inside it or dried paint your screwed their is no way to open the head or nose to remove it . Seen that issue on another paint forum . But as for the top seal that’s the same issue mine started having . When I turn it upside down water justbfalls out when washing . Also that little plastic prime cap . Once it breaks for some reason it causes it to lose suction. I never would have thought that would be an important seal but after reading up deeper on them it’s very important that cap does not break . And any little dries paint around the lid that holds the cup and the part that connects to the gun must be super clean too . They are sensative units for sure ….. also read putting vasaline around the lid where the cup goes helps with the seal as well . But yea I’m talking any small small leak will cause the gun to spray very bad .

Would you recommend this to paint a mobile home

[@JustinsProject]

Yes, it did a great job for me.

[@musiccrazy741]

Curious how hot it got over the times you would paint continuously. I dont know about you but some jobs i may need it running 5 gallon until i would stop painting and others it wont run long before i have to move to another room so it gets little breaks. lol. I just bought one but i wont run any paint through it until next week. Your video is the only one on the internet that actually shows a large enough work area to really see what it does and long you would think it would last. Great job sir. @@JustinsProject

[@ronrandall7118]

Justin, I want to spray paint using chassis black paint on the underneath of a new Ford Maverick pickup arriving Sep '23 and then apply CRC Corrosion Inhibitor. I only have a 2.5 gal small air compressor which might not work using an air spray gun. From KZbin videos I've seen, there seems to be a lot of overspray in the air using air to spray with and I don't want to have to mask the entire truck's exterior to prevent overspray. I thinking about going airless, I like the Vevor X6 price on Amazon for $167, that you can spray directly from a gal paint can without any dilution due to extra HP motor, and it comes with a 1' extension for tight places. Justin, would you recommend the Vevor X6 to spray paint the underbody of a vehicle?

[@JustinsProject]

A couple of things to consider. If you were spraying combustible material, I would not recommend it. I would recommend upgrading the air compressor and getting a decent LVLP. I did get some over spray during my spray, nothing crazy but with a new vehicle, I am not sure I'd risk it without masking everything off. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻

Hey Justin, i need to spray walls but could this be used for doors, furniture etc as well on a smaller scale?

Definitely could be used on doors, cabinets, and furniture. All you would need to do is change the spray tips out and set the spray pressure. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@bolarsen3983]

How much did you thin the paint? I had to thin it so much to get it work, and then I have paint all over.

[@JustinsProject]

I did not thin the paint at all. I sprayed directly out of the Behr paint bucket. I should have run the paint through a strainer but luckily it was not an issue on this project. I did have to do that when I painted the walls. Even though it was new paint freshly mixed, it had so many clumps in the bucket that it would not spray. I bought a 5-gallon paint strainer for $1 and it completely resolved the problem. I will never spray paint again without straining the paint first.

Does it spray 2K solvent based paints?

I am not sure I would use those paints in this type of sprayer. I am not very familiar with them but I do think they are highly flammable. It could be a risk of exploding.

@@JustinsProject I agree with you on the Vevor, although a plastic washer for the upper part of the handle split after only 3 hours of use. And customer support is responsive but incompetent. They didn't know what the part was or where it went and did not send me the link I requested to a blowup parts diagram. The part is not shown in the instructions. They said they'd send me a washer, but I am not holding my breath. I told them bro send me ten of them!

I found this sprayer to be the least user friendly item I've bought in a long time. Directions sucked. Thing would prime easy enough but would never just suck up the paint and start spraying. Every 5th time of going through the steps, you'd here turbine kick up and finally start to spray. I hated this thing, it just wouldn't work. What a PIA
