After watching your videos on this gun I bought one. I used it to paint my new garage addition. Worked awesome. Sprayed the entire inside and outside along with he roll up garage door. Did like you instructed, taped the gun up and taped off the areas not to be sprayed. Worked awesome, clean up a breeze, gun still looks brand new. Thats Idaho Painter. Great videos.

I’ve got the corded version and it is an absolute pleasure to run. I know they’re intended for smaller projects, which we started out just spraying doors and trim-work, but before we knew it we had painted our entire basement with no problems whatsoever. Cleaning is also very simple compared to other handhelds. I’ve had 2 other handheld brands before and cleaning always was such a pain. These Graco’s require cleaning 3 main components and that’s it. Would highly recommend!

I'm a GC but I also do handyman work. I bought this sprayer 6 months ago for small projects. It's pretty cool. Easy to pack up and "go". I was working on a job with a high end professional painter and he told me he had one of these. He said make sure you keep this unit extremely clean as the unit cannot be taken apart for repairs like a regular sprayer can. Also, keep in mind FFLP stands for "fine finish low pressure". I found even with this gun and tip running at around 4-7 is plenty enough. More than that and I get a lot of dust. I start at lower pressure and turn up until the edges feather and the fingered edges are gone spraying on test surface. :)

The Ultra comes with a 32 oz cup. You can purchase a 42 oz cup system to use on it. That helps a little with coverage between refills. You can also buy several cup systems and fill them up ahead of time to speed things up on larger jobs. Having an extra cup system or two ready with water for cleaning is also something to think about. I found the extra large cup systems for around $24. I purchased several. Having said that I am sure my roller will still get some use. For a large room I could see myself using the roller for a coat or two and then using the Ultra for touch ups and trim.

Thanks Chris. After watching this video I went and got the Graco Truecoat 360 DSP electric. I can't afford the fancy cordless powered by Dewalt batteries. I had bought a Wagner Flexio 3000, which I don't know how I missed it, I thought it was airless, nope. After trying it out anyway I returned it. I had 0.31 mil plastic taped up over vanity, shower/tub insert and floor. When I started the Wagner it was blowing way too much air and the plastic and the masking tape started to come off. Graco Truecoat 360 DSP electric works great for a 36 sq ft bathroom and it actually sprayed paint unlike the Wagner which I never got to work properly anyway.

Chris after watching your video on the graco handheld sprayer I went out and purchased the 360 VSP Handheld Paint Sprayer. I used it to spray the trim and doors in the Master Bedroom and Master Bathroom, I used the smallest of the two tips that come with this and after experimenting with the different speed control found that 5 was a good speed and delivered a good spray pattern. There was quite a bit of overspray which I didn't expect. I wish they had a smaller tip size to avoid the overspray because the trim isn't very wide. I sprayed the doors and cranked up the speed to maximum and it worked very well, only problem is the paint runs out very quickly, but very easy to refill, so I can deal with that. Overall, I love this sprayer and works very good. My next project is spaying my oak cabinets white, I really have to mask very carefully for this project, your videos helped me a lot in all aspects of painting. I used to hate painting and was very sloppy at it, but after watching your videos I learned so much and can now say I enjoy painting now and am very neat. Thanks Chris, your the best..

I have that gun as well. What annoys me most about it, is that it pulsates too much, and I can tell in the final finish. Setting the speed higher, and it put way too much material on the door that it ran. I am not impressed with the VSP. I do have the X18 Pro stand model. I have the blue guard which lets me use some of the newer FFLP tips, but the downside is you use a 1/4 of a gallon just to fill the hose (okay maybe not that much, but still a lot)

Thanks for your response. It does pulsate too much at the lower settings so I had to use the highest settings for a good flow. I had the same problems with the paint running on my doors, finally I figured out that if I moved the gun faster while spraying I did not get the runs, problem was it was my last door. Your right on about the X18, it's good for big jobs but not small ones......

I've tried the normal racX tips they work but I believe the point of this sprayer is Fine finish low pressure so it's best to use the FFLP. I shot some aluminum frames used a FFLP 210, Thumbed motor speed down to 1 and shot Pro Industrial urethane enamel like I knew what I was doing, No spitting No orange peel No hose and smooth as glass.also like the fact I don't have to buy entire gal. just to shoot 1 door that cuts back cost and storage. I've been spraying many years and I'm thoroughly impressed with the ultra hand held Graco is the only pump I'll ever buy my 23 yo gas 3500 still sprays and tested @ 3000psi last re-pack.

We have some history w/ these, mostly with poor results. It looks like Graco addressed many of our problems with this version. Better battery, better feed cup, standard tips (this is huge) and better pressure/rate control. Build quality looks (maybe?) better.

I've owned a graco ultra handheld now for over 2 year's, and like many Pro's when I bought this..my expectations were higher than they should have been(likely due to marketing) Yes it's a fantastic little airless sprayer but I definitely wouldn't be using it to spray a workshop or a shed now I know more about it as i made this mistake in the first 6 months. I sprayed around 40-50 litres of paint through it before the pump packed up and had to be replaced and will only now use it for what it is really intended for. Touching up on spraying jobs, the odd garage door, front door, and intricate coving and ceiling roses ect....general rule of thumb for me, is if you are using more than one battery per use? You are probably using it for too long and causing wear on the pump

Just want to say that the particular model he’s working with is NOT the sprayer to use with flammable products. These handheld sprayers have open motors that spark, if you add that with flammable you go from sprayer to flamethrower very quickly. Graco does however have a handheld model that can be grounded to spray flammable products. Also, you can use either FFLP or LP tips on these sprayer as they are both the same thing. They are labeled differently because of the sizing but since they both use the same low pressure technology they will work the same way, so if you are looking for a FFLP tip and can’t find the size but it is available as a LP tip you can use that as well. Lastly, always strain your paint before loading into any sprayer to reduce tip clogging.

Graco makes commercial sprayers. They put their quality and knowledge into the small handheld sprayers. I would buysecond a third one and fourth. But I've never broken one either. So I recomend buying the cordless one that takes DeWalt 20VLiPo batteries. I have the corded one so eventually I'll want the upgrade too. Your best bet is to Shop it on Amazon and wait for a price drop or a sale usually in the Fall then install the Honey Browser adon to get the lowest price and any possible cupons.I've done all my doors, new trim, whole rooms and even my whole house. I swear I could paint an old beater car and it'd look brand new again. Just dont use old or cheap paint. The #1 thing is to follow the Mfg. Cleaning instructions to the letter and do not deviate from it.

Keep some water in a 5 gal bucket for spray tip clogs, I use a one gal can for reloading the cup, I purchased 2-42oz paint cups and bags, tighten the cup to lid well. When I refill the cups I clean out the pickup screen to remove paint impurities, I use a 5ah battery it brings a balance between the paint cup and back of the gun, this helps when up on a ladder and using both hands...

Of the corded and the cordless, which would you buy if you were only going to use a handful of times a year. I dont own dewalt tools and am concerned about batteries going bad. However, if the cordless version is much more versatile and easy to use, it may be worth the extra money. Just using it for small jobs, furniture products, doors, etc. Any input greatly appreciated. Great channel and great tutorials.

You tip it upside down and run it to flush it out not upright. Also, to fill it with storage solution you only spray it one second til the fluid starts to spray out. I bought mine to paint soffits and needed it to operate upside down and it worked incredibly well. It really is a great unit especially for the money.

It's clear that you genuinely like the Graco handheld sprayers. if you were without a crew, though --let's say they died in a fiery-- for some reason, which single handheld sprayer (Graco ultra/proshot, Titan Flexspray) would you choose to make your life easier? Thanks to you and 'John' for all the vids.

I am torn on this. For the same amount of money, I could buy a Graco "weekend warrior" unit. I have a ProX9, which is great for doing a job or two a week. I just don't see the need for this on a professional level. Seems to work good for what it is, though.

I’m thinking about buying one of them..I have some high soffits at work in our warehouse and we have use of a lift for 10 more days and it would be too much trouble to use my regular airless and drag cords around with me in the lift. I think one of these could make quick work of what I have to do....I’m thinking one like yours runs at least $500.00 am I correct...hopefully it will pay for itself with a few jobs under its belt...

I'm sorry to see that Chris has become a product spokesman rather than someone giving a genuine product review. You can see the tip clogs early on and he easily clears it. Shortly after it clogs again within several feet and he emphasizes how much he loves the sprayer. As Chris knows when a sprayer clogs, you have to remove the splatter that occurs. It happened twice in a short time! Who would love that?

@Geo-oe8ce7 жыл бұрын
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I have enjoyed and benefited from several of your videos. This gun looked amazing. I was instantly drawn to it because I thought it would be ideal for painting doors. No more priming and cleaning long hoses( not to mention the wasted paint and time) just for 1 or 2 doors. However, all of those benefits are lost if it's prone to splatter. So if you had specified it is ideal for sheds and fences where splatter is not a factor and emphasized it would not be your choice for spraying metal doors or any project where it would show, I would have considered that an accurate review.Just keep in mind many people rely on your judgment so try to be as thorough as possible so they don't pay. Honestly I'd like to know if the clogging was just a fluke because I could really use the gun. I just don't have the $450 - $500 to risk on it. If you use it regularly, it would be nice to see an update. Thanks for your videos.Take care

Home Improvement How To's I looked at a couple cans of paint I have on hand and the 514 is small according to the paint can recommendations. I have seen 015 and 017. I think that means tips 515 and 517 would be good. I am new at this. Is that why your sprayer clogged, wrong tip for paint used? I looked at the manual for the UltraMax. It says to use 014 for interior and 016 for exterior paint.

Good video! But I was surprised to hear you say that you don't get your hands wet when cleaning a regular sprayer. As I always do. The filter basket at the end of the feed tube needs to be scrubbed as does the feed tube itself along with the housing for the tip. Not to mention the outside of the hose. This cordless looked a lot easier to clean to me. Thanks for the video.
