Graco Magnum Project Painter Plus: Full Set UP | Step BY STEP

[@sugafoot138]

Just purchased this sprayer and have watched a lot of vids to see what I was in for. You made it seem so easy. Thank you for sharing. Sometimes "homeownership" is intimidating.

[@danidiydit1]

Glad i could help!

[@djsavage2421]

I’m so proud of you for taking on the task of showing the rest of us how do use that machine. I’m even more proud of you because the fact that you’re a woman because most women are afraid to take on construction jobs, but you’ve just showing a lot of women and a lot of young girls that they can make a good living painting by utilizing the same steps that you did to paint that room. It looks amazing. God bless you.

[@chrisfullauto6009]

I was looking at getting one of these now I can't imagine painting without one. Not to mention I'm now a subscriber, can't say no to a smart and beautiful woman who can teach me useful things.

[@erindover6617]

Denbigh ‘91 in the house! 🎉 I love this sprayer. ALSO…there is an attachment for a special paint roller that is amazing! The machine fills into the roller core, which has a bunch of little holes, keeping the perfect amount of paint on roller at all times, with no need to use a roller pan…gives a beautiful finish.

[@barbwhitmore7470]

Here I go . I bought this over a year ago to make home improvements. I have not been brave enough to pull it out, but I have a big piece of old Brown furniture I'm going to paint. You have made it look so easy. I'm ready!

What i usually do when I paint houses, is take the guard off when I'm priming my spray line so.it comes out a stream instead of a spray. I find thats a little less messy

[@danidiydit1]

Awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing that tip!

[@jasonsmith3648]

I'm painting today thanks for the video, have you used the low pressure tips? They reduce the amount of overspray.

[@tpras2]

I just bought this. Brand new! I was using this earlier today. All was good & then it just stopped sucking up the paint only had a churning noise that it was “trying” to but couldn’t. So I primed it again, in case there was a clog. Worked for a few sprays then again & again. Made my job so slow. Has that ever happened to you? If it keeps jape tomorrow, maybe I have a defective one?

[@danidiydit1]

In some instances you may need to thin the paint out a bit. Add 8oz of water for every gallon of paint you are using and make sure to mix it well! That should definitely help

[@FernandoRodriguez-ds5ri]

When it clogs up just simply turn the sprayer tip backwards to unclog it, push down on the spray gun then turn it back to the forward position to continue spray. 🥷🏻

[@Mone989]

This was very informative! Thank you! One question not related to the sprayer tho. When priming a wall does it matter the direction you go? Can you spray up and across together or should it all be done in one direction?

[@altafmubarak]

Hi Just a few clarification on this machine. 1. How good is this machine in controling over spray & the mist . I mean when i use the compressor with a paint machine (not the airless spray) it make a lot of over spray and that over spray stuck above the paint finish in wet areas and later it can be sensed while touching the paint finish wall. 2. How is the result in wood stain or wood polish? Please any one from below comments section can also reply me. Since i need to order this machine and needed to know micro details before i make up my mind to buy it. Please help

[@007cttina]

Would you recommend this sprayer for painting doors and cabinets? Does it spray a really fine, no splotchy spray?

[@danidiydit1]

I would only recommend using this to paint doors and cabinets if its a huge project only because the setup is pretty time consuming. I also have the graco true 360 and thats what I typically use for doors and cabinets

[@josephramoscruz4365]

How do you eliminate the overspray and the lines

[@cccopycat583]

how many coats are required?

[@eYeSoFdAnGeR]

I’m about to buy this product. I wanna know if it’s worth it. Does it leave streaks? Will I need to backroll? Those are my 2 main questions.

[@danidiydit1]

With a steady spray there will be no streaks. The backrolling is the same. If you keep a consistent stream you shouldnt have to worry. THE BEST BUY YET FOR ME. So best of luck

[@dickeyspaz3222]

Great video. Simple and to the point. Had never used an airless sprayer before but this video and the video from Caliber8 Tools got me going. Took longer to properly clean after use than it did to spray my outside cinder block wall fence with 18 gals of paint.

[@danidiydit1]

I ALWAYS tell folks this, the setup and break down will be the toughest part of the job because once you get things going spraying is a breeze

[@noobshotpro]

@@danidiydit1if only we found your video two days ago haha! We (or especially my girlfriend 😂) found our way to make it work and as you said, the set-up and break-up took a long time. a demo of cleaning the tool would be awesome too since most instruction videos gloss over this part. We were messing around for 35 minutes before we finally managed to loosen the cilinder (seemed really stuck but once we finally found the correct position to ‘wrench it loose’ , it was easy). So it’s best to use this baby if you’re going to paint multiple rooms since you really get Amazing results very quickly when you start spraying. Great explanation and demonstration, I hope many people see this vid!

[@TheCurlyFitChicOriginal]

I am trying looking at this sprayer, the X5 and the X7 (cheaper would be better). Want to make sure I'm getting one that will work without thinning Behr Marquee interior paint. It's supposed to be thick since it's a paint and primer in one. Any thoughts?
