What kind of sprayer to use with Behr paint?

If you own a compressor, or plan on buying one, you will be looking for a general purpose sprayer that likely has the paint container sitting below the nozzle, since most gravity-fed sprayers (can above the nozzle) are for thin paints and varnishes used in automotive detailing applications. The important thing is to read the specifications for the sprayer to determine if latex paints can be used. Once you have found one or more that state they can be used with latex, ensure that the compressor you will be using has the required scf rating to deliver the latex paint through the sprayer. Some sprayers may require as little as 2 scf @ 40 psi which is something virtually every compressor can deliver while other latex-capable sprayers may require a more powerful compressor. Of course, you will also have to use a thinner in the latex paint regardless of the sprayer you choose. ANSWER: Actually, you can not use a cup gun to spray latex paint with a standard air compressor. The latex paint requires either a high amount of air or high pressure to atomize the paint. This can be done with an HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) sprayer and gun, a gravity feed gun with a projector set that handles thicker fluids, or an airless paint sprayer that uses a piston or diaphragm to push the paint through a hose, to a gun where the paint will be atomized by a spray tip.


Which paint sprayer allows different patterns?

Patterns??? What kind of a pattern are you looking for?? Usually, the tip in the spray gun is what determines the "pattern".


What kind of oil to use in a Wagner paint sprayer?

Many airless paint sprayers do use hydraulic oil. Some use a small amount of hydraulic oil to move a diaphragm pump back and forth, while others use several gallons to supply a hydraulic pump that powers a separate paint pump. The advantage of using a pump that uses hydraulics is the spray is much smoother, and can be run at a lower pressure than a mechanical machine that allows the pump to run until the top pressure is built, then allows the pressure to drop to a predetermined lower pressure before the pump is started again. This dead band will cause a fluctuation in pressure that is not seen in hydraulic pumps. At higher pressures, this isn't usually a problem; however, it can make the sprayer unusable at lower pressures.

What can you do to make sure the sprayer parts are safe?

I have found a website that I beieve should help you. You did not mention the kind of sprayer you have so this may not be actually what you will need to do but should be very similar. www.portlandcompressor.com/airless/maintenance.aspx

How do you release pressure on a solo backpack sprayer?

If the sprayer is working correctly, all pressure should be released by operating the wand valve while not operating the pump lever. (I'm assuming it is a hand-operated sprayer, not the kind with a powered pump.)
