Ultra Cordless Airless Handheld Paint Sprayer 17M363

This machine is awesome, I painted the exterior of my home and garage quickly. I dont think it was designed for such a big job but it worked great for me. I hate painting but this sprayer makes it kind of fun. A few tips that helped me , if the sprayer keeps sputtering and wont spray check the filter screen, its clogged with paint film. What I started doing was wiping it with my finger at each refill. Another thing is if it is spraying fine but you can see big droplets on the surface you're painting check the blue tip shield. Paint builds up after a little and blocks the spray pattern which causes those paint globs. Also I noticed that after cleaning it some water remains in the sprayer so when you go to use it again that little bit of water thins out the paint which cause air to get back in to the cup a little easier and it will drive you crazy. It will work normal again after that little bit of water gets flushed out while painting. What I started doing was tapping the trigger on the sprayer a few times to try and pump out as much water as possible before attaching the cup of paint. The most important thing is cleaning the gun. I didnt want dried up paint clogging up the pump so what I would do is turn the sprayer upside down and pour water from my water hose directly into the inlet of the sprayer and pull the trigger until the water came out clear. I would do that on both spray and prime settings. Using a tooth brush to clean all the little attachments helps a lot. I'm done spraying my house and the sprayer is still working great, I'm not sure if its because the care I take in to cleaning it but I'm sure that's helping. I bought a good quality exterior paint from HD that has a primer already mixed in so it was pretty thick and I sprayed it with the pressure setting at 3 1/2 and that worked great, no need to thin down. I would say the one and only downside to this sprayer is the small 32oz cup. I had to stop and refill a lot!! So a bigger cup would be nice but the sprayer made the job so much easier it wasnt to big of a deal.

I bought this spray gun to shoot the 72 inch wainscoting that I built into my master bath remodel. It did not disappoint. I did use the tip it came with, which is for a 12 inch pattern. While I had a large area to do, that tip would seem to be overly large, but in the end, did a really nice job (I bought a 6 inch tip that didn't do as well). I did use a very high end Benjamin Moore semi gloss latex paint, and the spray finish was superb. No runs with the 12 inch tip, but again - it is wide and I did mask off the walls and floor. It does take some time to clean after use - and is best done with a garden hose so you can keep running water into the cup to spray through it to clean it. The dewalt battery is a plus as I have those already for my drills and a 6 inch battery dewalt circular saw. Amazing gun. Of note - this is a higher grade gun than the one's sold at the local retail home improvement stores. Read the Graco reviews on the differences. That is why I bought this model.

Tried it right out the box for testing purposes. Filtered my latex paint twice, flushed the testing liquid that they use at the factory and started spraying. It sprayed great for about 45 seconds! Then clogged constantly. Constantly lost prime and took about 25 minutes to completely flush and clean the gun after that. You would be much better off just rolling on the paint or getting a cheaper and more reliable, corded sprayer. This unit is simply not worth it.

I am happy with my purchase of this product.

I’ve tried a few different compressor-based HVLP guns in the $20-$1000 price range, and for various reasons they just never quite did it for me to continue use using them. When I was on the hunt for a pro-level HVLP, I remembered about the Graco Cordless unit, and I’m ALL ABOUT THE CORDLESS. Poured through reviews and videos with pros and cons and decided to give t a shot before I spent twice and much (or more) on a turbine HVLP. After spraying 3 different tables so far, I have zero regrets! Is this gun going to replace an HVLP for really fine finishes? Maybe not. BUT - to me, the simplicity is absolutely game changing. Box to first paint job in 5 minutes and it came out great! Sprayed primers and Alkyd Enamels with the included 514 tip without thinning (just adjust the speed knob at the back), and am really very pleased! After a few uses and getting comfortable with the gun movement vs. gun speed setting, I kept getting better and better finishes! So far I’ve used this on furntiture but I love that I can use it for a variety of other things like wall paints, clear coats and and primers without having to worry much at all out mixing and thinning. For me, I would say the only real cons are that it pumps out a fair bit of paint, and that it’s a tad heavy. After a few minutes though, I got used to the weight and didn’t even notice, and I suspect further practice and tip experimentation might help (but not totally eliminate) the paint consumption. All in all, I’m super thrilled! In my continuing quest to get better at spraying I might still buy that Turbine system one day, but the ease of use of this gun and the finishes I’m getting really make me wonder if I’ll ever have a need.

This sprayer is the best spray gun I have ever used. It sprays smoothly and very easy to clean up. I’ve used industrial sprayers and many other types. This is by far my favorite. If you do large projects and need your symphony in a 5 gallon bucket then this is not for you. I’ve used it to spray a deck and will use it to touch up my fence repairs on the farm. It would have been too small and required too many refills to do a fence that covers large acreage but it’s perfect most household jobs

I don't usually write reviews... but this time is different. I tend to buy high end tools, better value in the long run. Somehow got in my mind to buy the Graco airless. Was pricey, had buyers remorse for some time thinking I spent too much for a tool I had yet to use... and then.... We needed a new shed. Almost bought one but we would have had to take down some trees to get a purchased one in place, etc... . Added plus, got to buy some new tools along the way, like a bostitch roofing nailer, also flawless.... Anyway, sided the shed with the more expensive T-111 siding. Took out the Graco and started spraying the Sherwin Williams solid stain.... I let the Mrs use the sprayer and I followed with a small roller for the times when she didn't move the gun fast enough. We painted the 12x16 shed two coats in a couple hours... wow.... Was a hot day so the stain was dry by the time we got around to the other side. As a comparison, at one point we had to piece in a 2'x8' T-111 on a corner. Tried to paint it with a roller... took forever. The T-111 siding is rather rough so just didn't go well. Seemed to use too much stain, took too much effort to get the stain into the rough surface... and it didn't get as good results. Repainted it with the sprayer... This sprayer is the best. Now use it for other various painting jobs... wow... great purchase. Conclusion: they could charge twice as much for the Graco and it would still be worth it... TIPS: keep the gun moving... it shoots quite a bit of paint (stain,etc).... And just make sure that you spend the time to clean it well after each use. Take the time.... Not sure if you are supposed to do this but I put the garden hose into the bottom pump opening and just spray the water through. I end the cleaning process by spraying a good amount of the pump armor through it. Turn the gun upside down and pour the pump armor into the pump with the pump on... You can buy a quart for a reasonable amount and should help to keep the pump working well.

Great tool, and to be honest I almost didn't buy it after reading some of the negative reviews here. I don't want to spend almost $ 600 for a troublesome tool! However after using it I pretty much think that some of the reviewers never bothered to read the manual or misunderstood the directions. Use it and prepare it as it says to, and it shoots paint quickly, accurately and the finish is great. Cleanup procedures as specific, be sure to follow them. The only negative is that is with the tip supplied, it applies way too much material very quickly, those reviewers that say to get a smaller bore tip are absolutely correct. I went through a quart of paint spraying this bench in less than two minutes! Other than that, very happy with it and I see it will be getting a lot of use around my home.
