The quickest way to choice a airless sprayer: Eight Questions To Ask

1.What types of materials will you spray? Now and in the future?

The types of materials you spray will determine the size of the tips you use. If
you plan to spray a variety of materials you have to consider buying a sprayer
with more versatility.

you can take reference from our blog post for selecting the spray tip size for your different painting material.

2.How many gallons per week will you spray?

Purchasing a part-time sprayer to do a full-time job has disappointed many
contractors. In the long run, saving money on a sprayer that is inadequate for
the job, or not durable enough, will cost a lot in lost labor.

samewhile, it’s a waste for a hobby user to purchase a professional big pump for only one or two house spraying.

3.What power sources are available? Will most jobs be indoors or outdoors?

Your answers will help choose a unit family (gas, electric, or compressed air)
based on power sources alone. If the job site doesn’t have electricity, you need to source the Gas engine driving sprayer unit.

4.What types of surfaces will you be spraying?

Will you be spraying on drywall, exterior siding, or concrete? You have to
consider the tip sizes needed as well as the quality of finish required in order to
choose the best sprayer for the job. If you just spray thin coat like lacquer / resin onto the wood surface, like door / cabinet / window etc

then you only need small airless sprayer enough.  if you spray heavy coating in high viscosity, the large capacity pump is necessary.

5.How many spray guns will you use at one time, now and in the future?

If you plan to use more than one spray gun at a time, then you have to purchase a
unit that has the ability to handle multiple spray guns. that means the spraying capacity is much more.

6.What types of jobs will you bid?

Each job has its own requirements. New construction, residential work, and
commercial jobs all vary in terms of: coatings used, crew size needed, and
power sources available.

7.What hose lengths will you use?

Hose length depends on the job site, material being sprayed, spray tip size, and
hose diameter. Your paint sprayer must be able to support the length of hose. Most
DP sprayers use DC motors, which are able to support longer extension cord
lengths than either AC or universal motors.

8.How much do you want to spend on a sprayer?

Buying an airless paint sprayer is an investment. You do not want to over-buy or under-buy.
Keep in mind the cliché, “You can pay now or pay later”. Downtime resulting
from an undersized, overworked sprayer or poor quality equipment can quickly
wipe out any savings from the initial low purchase cost of the sprayer.
