FFLP VS RAC X VS LP Graco Airless Tips Pros, Cons, and Comparison of Each Tip

[@stevespencer5158]

Whats the deal with all the paint dripping out all over the place?

[@tempednice]

There's still air in the line I usually run it about a minute before I start spraying

[@lotuselise5000]

This poor dude didn't even tighten the blue tip guard all the way down. It's leaking past the seal because it's loose. It' s clear he's well versed with an airless because of how he's got the tip guard on nice and crooked hahaha

[@stevespencer5158]

@@lotuselise5000 Much more plausible than his answer.

[@claytonlance235]

Air in the lines does not cause dripping... a loose guard, or bad gun needle will do that...

Wish tips you recomend to use to paint a metal roof? Fflp or Lp and wish number or a regular one?

[@Emad_m]

how are you my friend. I brought a Graco 390, but there is a difference in the electricity 110 / I have 220 electricity. Can you tell me what parts should be replaced?

[@jamesmcconnon2]

Step down transformer

[@webpro607]

I also have the same question, i think the motor should be replaced to 220v but not sure about that

[@dmitriyl4177]

To be or not to be, that is the question. All professional Graco pumps are 110v, which is just fine in America but lagging double the weight of the pump with a mandatory transformer is a real pain in the butt. If you notice, this Graco 390 is in fact a Dewalt battery powered unit. Which costs about £500 more (lots of that is the cost of batteries, charger and a brushless motor) but then you will NOT have to worry about 110v transformers...

[@Harleyforever20]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. This making tip choices better for me.

[@pablohu6935]

So my question... I have fflp tips ..and a graco magnum prox19 and i wanna know what psi i need to use it. Because the manual says that works in 1500 psi..start spraying. And u have yellow LP tip too. And i wanna know which psi should i use it.... Thanks

[@PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo]

Hi both the yellow and green tips use about the same psi 1500 is the low end you can increase psi if you notice your not getting good atomization

[@Tigerratcat]

I've got FFLP 210 and FFLP 517 and FFLP514 from a previous project. I'm about to spray my walls and ceiling. Am I silly to use the FFLP 517/514 or should I buy a LP 517? Don't really want to spend any more money than I have to

[@diyidea3031]

fflp perfect for all, you just look haw match paint going with 517 and 514 , make 514cwill bw better, can use less paint

[@robertolivarez5742]

I feel that the fflp and lp produce more overspray than the rac x. Mabey its because im shooting epoxy. And also when shooting with an fflp recommend 100 mesh filter.

[@tonyaddy7825]

I have a RAC X FF LP 312 tip paint says .013-.015 at 1400psi - 2400psi can I use the FF LP for this paint?? spraying cabinets

[@tonyaddy7825]

enamel paint

[@zacharyhallock9274]

Thanks!

[@ra3975]

Would it be better to use a 517 LP tip to reduce overspray compared to the standard rac x 517?

[@PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo]

Yes it would help a good bit

[@shaynesabala]

Does the FFLP 319 RAC X use a different guard than the standard one that comes with X7 sprayer?

[@FernandoRodriguez-ds5ri]

Yes

[@johnthemod71]

Yes and the tip seat is also smaller and put a red mesh filter in your gun

[@terry7893]

I appreciate the time and effort you took to do this, but to us home viewers, it all looks the same to us. I'm sure in person you can see what you're trying to demonstrate. Maybe if you did it with different lighting or something, what you're trying to demonstrate would show up better.

Good information 👍

[@pablohu6935]

what about the black tips? i see the seel it

[@A4aviator]

Old tips... . and tip guard. Obsolete, effectively. You can still use the black tips in the old tip guard, obviously, but the black tips will become less available. ... So, going forward ALL blue and green Graco tips will fit in Rac X tip guard.

[@FernandoRodriguez-ds5ri]

Which tip you recommend to use on a wrought iron fence. The type you see around a house pool. The ones with iron pickets.

[@PittsburghSprayEquipmentCo]

Hi depends on the paint product you will end up using but in general I would consider a low pressure tip

[@keesdejong4727]

Usefull. Thanks.

[@candid886]

I have 14 interior new interior bedroom doors to paint and I am researching these fflp tips. Gonna be spraying Dunn Edwards aristosheild or equivalent. Is an fflp tip the tip that I want for this?

[@phoenixphoenix3145]

Jesus man tighten your tip guard was painful to watch

[@briansawyer3232]

You have almost never used a gun and it shows, the guard is either to tight or to lose, this is sooooo sloppy… I don’t mean to be rude but the way you handle the gun is terrible spraying sideways, leading the guard leak all over the place. I understand everyone wants to monetize but at least know somewhat of what you’re doing

[@johnthemod71]

Exactly you can't go from an LP tip to an FFLP tip without changing the tip seat and a tighter mesh gun filter or you will create plenty of problems and stoppages

[@briansawyer3232]

Fflp but lp would work too and depends what product you’re using and the size of roof and how much you want to get done at a time, if your new to spraying I’d go with a smaller fan which would be a 4/15 5/17 I’d at least use a 5/17 and up on a roof tho
