Not sure why it says it’s suitable for wood and metal but not walls eg plaster. Seems fine on walls. Also I’m using paint that doesn’t have the Red “perfect spray” logo, seems fine! NB the paint itself (leyland trade) says it’s okay for spray. Quality of paint on plaster wall seems really nice! Not sure why it’s not recommended as such
@JamesManCave3 жыл бұрын
The reason it only says wood and metal is because this is the entry level spray gun. They do a much pricier version that is dedicated for indoor decorating, so some people assume that they need to buy the more expensive spray gun to do walls and ceilings

Hi James ..great review btw, very helpful..I’ve recently purchased one of these Wagner wood & metal spray gun. I tried it on mdf panelling with 2 coats of primer and my choice of finish is white eggshell. But the 1st coat was very pimply and orange peel effect..I diluted as instructed but I wasn’t too impressed with the finish.. I was expecting a smooth finish like its comes out of a spray booth from a joinery workshop.. maybe it’s me being too heavy handed or not diluting enough..any thoughts on my novice approach on my project..good review very useful thank you..
@JamesManCave4 жыл бұрын
Hi, I've sprayed loads of things with this and had a super smooth finish on it. I'd say practise your spraying skills a bit with the spray gun, and also take the time to really dial the spray pattern in, long strokes and try not to release the trigger to much as this will cause some minor spitting each time you pull the trigger back 👍

Great review James. I’m currently making some MDF skirting boards and undercoating them with a couple of coats is taking me forever! Also I’ve got home made fence panels I put up just before the accident which haven’t seen a coat of anything in 15 months😳. Just gone through your back catalogue of videos and saw this, is it ok for stuff like fence panels, but also is it ok for the likes of satinwood on skirting and wax/oil on doors? Just had a look on Amazon and it’s discounted at £50 which seems like a good deal

Hi buddy, I've painted mdf with this, plywood and obviously the door in this video. I have only used water based paints in it, I'm really impressed with it with the paints I have used. It also says its designed for wood and metal spraying, so I will test out non water based paints soon when I spray the garage door with it soo. However, a chap in work bought one to paint his fences after I told him about it, and he thinks it's the best £50 he has spent this year. There is also a dedicated fence sprayer which I also have, but I'm yet to use.

I've tried to find out a bit more on this, truth is I don't know. But what I can tell you is that the W550 is no longer produced by Wagner, and the specs of both sprayers seem to be identical. The model range that start in the 500s now are different sprayers altogether. Best I can do 👍

Hi Neil, hmmm that's a bit of a tricky one. For the paint to come out without the trigger depressed, the valve must still be open.
