Any overspray?

Doesn’t it change the color when you add any amount of water?

@@Eddiee602No it doesn’t. Im still using it for my home projects without any problems.

Thanks for the feedback Hugh. We're really pleased you're enjoying using the 250M.

How much

Thank you!

Hey Happy Places! Sorry to hear you are having difficulty. Actually the 311 is the ideal tip for spraying woodwork and achieving a fine finish - as long as the paint is properly prepared! And yes the 515 will almost definitely allow too much paint through as it is designed for covering large areas like spraying walls. A few things to check: dilution - start around 5-10%, you want a cream like consistency that runs off the stirrer; temperature - keep the paint as warm as possible (don't leave outside and then spray!); strain - it's advisable to pass the paint through a sieve if you are having problems with blockages; re-clean your tips to remove any dried on paint (try Wagner TipClean!). Proper mixing, dilution and not spraying cold paint should achieve perfect results. Please let us know how you get on.

Thank you! Cheers!

Hello, thank you, we are not 100% sure which handheld masker was used in this video but it could be the Trimaco version which is available here paintshack.co.uk/products/trimaco-qm5000-pro-starter-kit?_pos=17&_sid=d5036fb37&_ss=r. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team.

Glad you like it!

Yes, definitely no problem at all. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

id love to know more about how you flip rvs

@@Vpopov81 I just take run-down old RVs and completely redo them from top to bottom.. The secret is CLEAN every inch perfectly... because you can't paint Dirt... and most if not all the RVs I redo are so filthy like the one I'm working on right now, that used to be a meth lab!!! I also refurbished a Vintage 1972 Travel Trailer ... turned out so CUTE... I hand painted that one too... with house paint... Don't faint.. it worked out beautifully... but I also stripped the paint off to the metal first... sanded it smooth too. The 1985 30' Class A I'm working on right now... was the meth house... now that one is really taking a lot of time. I am also hand painting the outside of that too... except this time I'm going to be putting beautiful glitter, imbedded in the Polyurethane. The countertops look so good... and the shower (yes I painted that with house paint too)... will also have imbedded glitter in it also. Or white peralized iridescent powder. They estimated to paint the 30' RV... it was going to cost between $12,000. to $15,000. No... I didn't put too many zeros... that was the quote... It will take me after I have Stripped off the ugly brown strips on the outside of the RV and gently sand this down, because it is FIBERGLASS and you do NOT want to SAND Fiberglass, it is dangerous to breath... I strip it down with stripper, then ... clean it again... then start painting it... I will have touched this 8' x 30' 12' tall Class A RV 14 times before I'm though. YOU get the jest of the story ... It should take me 40 house to clean/strip it 40 hours to paint it and 20 hours to Polyurethane it with my secret receipt of glitter and white iridescent pearl powder ... Hope this (kinda) answers your questions... LOL Not bad for a 65 year old woman... (Laughing). ... and I should be retired.

@Seamus McShamish Thank YOU so much for all this GREAT Information... I will check this out. Right now I'm working on a huge Class A RV 30' long 13' high!!! It is big!!! lots of work.

There's always next time Judi!

I didn't know you have to dilute it, but I know now. I'm about to use a sprayer for the first time.

i totally agree...gravity is the enemy when trying to mask off a ceiling

Your idea is good but it doesn't work... because you have all the dust coming down and now you have a Chace that the wall might get over spray as you're spraying the walls

@@epenaloza52 You can use a longer roll of "Tape and Drape" to cover the walls.

You do not have to cover the whole ceiling, just close to the edge borders between ceiling and walls (1ft width of mask at most). If you mask the wall and paint the ceiling, you have to mask the WHOLE walls. Because of gravity and painting ceiling at an angle, there are more chances of splashing paint to the wall.

@@ThaiNguyen-qf3no yes but what I am saying is the masking the ceiling of hard on a person's neck. Over time that will cause you issues. Masking the walls is easier. To each their own brother. Both ways work. Everyone has a different approach and there's nothing wrong with that.

@mark smith Never had that problem before tbh and I've sprayed dozens of ceilings

Wagner control pro 130 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣...... get this job done the right way? ......... you do realise Wagner is a d.i.y machine don’t you? .... it’s shit ffs lol

Lol nah man Wagner is trash

Mark is correct - best to do multiple light coats. Spraying is ideal for this as the process is quick and drying time is reduced. Practice on some cardboard to get the machine working properly. Make sure you use the right filter, tip and dilute if necessary. Good luck!

@@Dusk0nerSA What is better then.

Good luck Man!

Thanks for your feedback SweetSpot. We hope this is inspiring for our consumer customers but we do also have a channel for more serious contractor sprayers - ru-vid.com A 315 tip could be quite slow for walls but as you say gives better accuracy if only using a shield to get the edges 👍 Thanks - The Wagner DIY Team.

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom I used a 1.4mm tip and it takes me roughly 4 hours to paint a 100 sq ft room with 400 sq ft of paint coverage, but wow does it look incredible. It's so amazing the paint's tape no longer sticks, it's a work of art. Whenever people walk into my house their jaws just drop, they say it's better than the Mona Lisa and I honestly agree with them, I don't mean to be overzealous but my work really is that amazing. Not my words, I've had thousands of people tell me this. My Wanger 130 really does me right!

Hi guys! Thanks for your question. In this instance the walls and ceilings were getting their first coat with the same material - no need to wait for the paint to dry, they were just done in one go. If you are not changing material but need to wait for paint to dry for any reason then just de-pressurise the sprayer and leave the spray gun in a bucket of water to stop the tip from drying out. Then when you come back to spraying you are ready to go! If you are changing colours then you will need to go through the full cleaning process (which only takes a few minutes!). Regards - The Wagner DIY Team.

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom Inconsistent overlapping. 5% - 85% in any given area in this video.

Hello Lexander As can been seen in the video spraying is so much quicker than rolling provided you do the masking. When you are applying so many coats of paint as in this example going from bare plaster, the speed of spraying really speeds up the process. Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

Hello Maco if you are doing a mist coat primer you can dilute the paint slightly. You can see an explaination about tips on our Professional Contractor channel here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qWmP1R-VvZg.html. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY

Thanks! :-)

Of course sanding and filli is needed, the paint should be overlapped by 50% vertically then repeated horizontally for a professional finish.

Hi William, we certainly do - using a sprayer on a door is much quicker than brushing or rolling, especially if it's a panel door with any detailed areas. For airless spraying we have different tip sizes that are suitable for different paints. You may want to look into the 208 and 308 tips for spraying wood & metal paint to a fine finish - for example on doors and trim. We hope that helps! Thanks - The Wagner DIY Team.

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom are drywall applications the same and do they feel and look of regular paint rollers?

Use a razor knife and cut the paint along the edge of the tape.

Use frog tape mate go for yellow one if possible

Don't let the paint cure. take the tape off when it is fresh.

Use better preparation on the wall. If the Paint Comes off with tape the Paint doesnt stick on the wall

Hello The sheet was approximately 60-90 cm wide this should be sufficient to protect the ceiling while spraying the walls. Kind Regards Wagner DIY

Hello Jack, it sound like you have particle in the paint, we would recommend pouring the paint through a sieveso that you don't get any particles in the machine which could block it. If the tip does become blocked rotate it 180 degrees, then pull the trigger to remove the blockage. Rotate the nozzle back and continue spraying. Kind Regard WAGNER DIY

Hello The combined tape with plastic foil covered the ceiling so no overspray went onto the ceiling. Any overspray in the atmosphere will naturally go down rather than up. With good quality masking tape you can do multiple coats of paint and peel it off with no problem. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team.

It wont i do this and its fine

Overnight works for me but you are better off spraying the walls first and then masking the walls (2.6m film) and then spraying the ceiling. The walls are easier to mask than the ceilings. So the order is skirting boards first, over-spraying on to walls, next day mask skirting boards then spray walls, over-spraying onto ceiling, next day mask walls and spray ceiling. Hope this helps.

If you find it is using too much paint then you will need to move the gun faster. 2 light coats that dry quickly are better than applying one heavy coat. The spray pressure should be set so that you get a good fan pattern with soft edges - if you set it too low for your material then you may not get a good finish. The amount of paint used is down to the speed you work at. Hope that helps!

Great in the Uk this machine is available from Screwfix www.screwfix.com/p/wagner-control-pro-250m-electric-airless-paint-sprayer-550w/2122v as well as Amazon and other retailers

Most paint supply stores and even the big box stores have it or the brown paper version.

These are available from tesa and are called an Easy Cover Dispenser if you search online you should be able to find sources. Kind Regards WAGNER DIY

Wear eye protection I've had plenty of blow back in my experience on my house. And why does no one score the tape? I ripped my walls up like crazy

What do you mean by trim?

@@infiniti2015 trim is a piece of plastic with a straight edge that you can hold against a surface so that paint cant go past it. you can use anything really, cardboard if you want to. as long as it has one straight edge that you can put to the surface.

@@kumainkana3576 LMAO 🤣🤣

Hello yes you can use water and solvent-based paints but we would recommend using water based paints as they are easier to dilute if required and also easier to clean up afterwards. Kind Regards WAGNER DIY.

2 days if everything was sprayed would be good safe time

Hello Ken, all the paints used on this job are water based so once everything is properly dry it safe. Kind Regards The WAGNER DIY Team.

I get that PROs benefit from an airless sprayer, but for someone with a couple of rental properties, considering the required "back roll" and all of the added taping time and cost, do you think that air spraying is beneficial over traditional rolling? Also, do doors require a roll/brush as well?

@@1966johnnywayne Ive been spraying for over 20 years and I wouldn’t still be able to take care of my family without a airless. If your painting to turn a good profit yearly and not doing shit here and there for beer money a airless is a must for good volume yearly but yes u can spray your doors preferably I would put a couple light coats on your doors so u don’t have any runs and keep from back rolling are having any brush marks period so u have a smooth surface on your doors. I prefer to only back roll walls but not doors and cabinets I rather put a couple light coats to fill in properly with no runs. 3” tip or even a 2” some times for your jams

@@1966johnnywayne Or even spray your doors ceilings baseboards exc and then roll and brush your walls for probably your best route for time wise. All depends on the project but yes can’t stress enough when u have 20 years of airless spraying is def the fastest most profitable way to paint. If your just doing your rental properties just take your airless in there and fan everything if it’s not bad the only paint that don’t touch up correctly is flat paint so try and change over if that’s what u have on the walls and u can honestly go in and do what a old head would say and feather all your walls in and fan your ceiling’s and doors for the spots that’s needed and cut your base for a cheap quick turn

This is the WAGNER Control Pro 250 R Airless Sprayer which is you can see more product details and where to buy here: www.wagner-group.com/uk/do-it-yourself/products-and-accessories/product/airless-sprayer-control-pro-250-r/ Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

I'll race you

You really have no idea, don't go by what this guy is doing. 2 days to mask and fill take doors off. 4 hours to undercoat and that's on a average 350sq house about a week all up if you doing normal hours.

Pmsl yeah you’ll bomb off infront while I mask what I need to mask and then when you’ve just finished ur 1st coat and are waiting on it to dry you’ll see me spraying on the last coat and sat down eating biscuits and telling ya to Chuck ur brush and roller in the bin cowboy 🤠

Hello Charlie are you using an HVLP sprayer or an Airless sprayer like in this video? Regards the WADNER DIY Team

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom airless

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom sorry actually I have figured it out. Thanks

No, you let the old color mix with the new color so you get a new superior color.

Hi Carlos, yes you will need to go through the cleaning procedure to change colours.

when You spraying ceiling You need a goggles and hat on the head

@@lcaise thank you!

Is the brush better?

Hello Zac both the number of coats and the dial setting depend on the material being sprayed and the tip being used. This particular job had two coats and was set mostly at 6. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team.

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom thanks for the reply. Looking forward to trying one of these out

Hello you are best to remove the tape before it is completely dry. The quality of the masking tape does make a difference. I am pleased you like the product. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom How to do that if you need to paint several coats? Surely you need to wait for lower layers to dry before top layers?

The number of coats that you need to apply depends on the surface that is being sprayed and also the paint that has been used. After you've done the preparation work and applied the first coat of paint if another coat is required as you are spray painting this is extremely quick to do.

@@WAGNERUnitedKingdom should you spray up and down and then from side to side ? And should they use up more paint then normal

It certainly can be a good idea to use eye protection but with the HEA (High Efficiency Airless) technology spray mist is much less of a problem! 👌 Thanks to the low pressure, the paint goes on the wall and stays there 🔒

Haha yeah any touch up on this is gonna stand out

Hello sorry I not sure which colour was used for this project. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

Hello, yes the paint used is wipeable which is ideal for a kitchen environment with children and their sticky hands. Kind Regards the WAGNER DIY Team

Hello Thomas If you are applying masking tape to freshly painted surface is better to use a delicate tape, these are often pink in colour an example would be tesa www.brewers.co.uk/product/NT3720350E. This will make sure when you remove the tape the paint does not come with it. Kind Regards WAGNER DIY

Hello Zac, the number of coats you apply obviously depends on the surface that you applying them onto as this has been sprayed onto a bare plaster it required a minimum of two coats. If you were covering a strong colour you would also need two coats we some surfaces and paint types you can use just one coat. With spraying the coats are so quick to apply. kind Regards the wAGNER DIY team

Interior décor is such a personal taste 😀 Thanks @luklingX

Hello that's often referred to as tape and cover or masking tape with an integrated foil or film it's readily available in DIY stores and online. kind regards the WAGNER DIY team.
