TM-71

I did lots of research before buying this sprayer and I’m glad I took the time to do this. I’ve used an oil based fence paint (Palatine paints), choosing the right nozzle and it sprayed beautifully, even and no issues. I love the fact you can alter the angle that the paint sprays (horizontal, vertical, diagonal fanned out spray zone). I have restrictions in my arms and hands so to be able to use this has been a godsend. The weight isn’t too heavy but I did swap over between hands but only so I didn’t cramp up in my hands. You need to clean it straight away after use and put a bit of WD40/oil on the piston. It took me a long time to clean it the first time and a lot of white spirits but the second time was easier. If it’s oil based paint you use, wipe out the paint reserve container by hand, or back into the paint tin. Wipe out as much as possible with kitchen roll, THEN use the white spirits (fill up the container to midway). I used a large bin bag with blue roll/kitchen roll in the bottom, loosely hold the bag around the spray nozzle and then spray so that the white spirits cleans the machine and swirl around the spray gun to get as much paint out of the container. Strip it down, wipe it all down with white spirits, oil the piston and put it back together again. I’m really pleased I bought this spray gun. For what I’ve paid for it, I’ve saved that amount x 6 on my osteopath/physio getting me right again.

Deliberated long and hard about justifying buying one of these. Looked at the reviews of many models. Chose this one as suitable for thicker paints too, if required. Well, if you are thinking about it, dont. Just go ahead a buy it. Couldnt wait for a full day so started at lunchtime, but only got 11 of the 30 panels done as we was getting to grips with it and didnt have a very good routine and we were too hot. Mistake, as I will now have to clean it twice! I have sprayed 11 6' x 5' panels in a couple of hours and only used 1 5lr tub of fence paint. I didnt skimp and they are well covered. I think covering over the dark green has made it easier and I think I can get away with just the one coat. Really impressed with the sprayer. There was no vibration in my hands at all, lightweight and easy to use. Cleaning thoroughly took about half an hour but better that than getting it blocked up. I bought the extra accessories pack which give you another dispensing container with lid so you can store leftover paint for your next job. Brilliant bit of kit. You wont be disappointed.

I first used an electric sprayer over 40 years ago and it was ok but this is very good. I only have a few criticisms. The cable should be at least 3m. An extra screw cap would be handy for storing un used paint in the spray pot. I would also pay a little more if all the removable fittings were made from stainless steel instead of plastic. Water based paints dry very quickly and after a few uses the plastic will get scratched through cleaning with the brush and pick. Apart from that, spray pattern and paint volume adjustment is good. Worth the money on this one job alone. Just make sure you have the pick up pipe set at the right angle in the pot for spraying up or downwards. Update Took it out to use again and it's dead. So it was used for a few hours, cleaned ,packed away and now out of warranty it's not working. Should have bought a reputable make, wagner maybe.

I found it really good to use and leaves a good finish really impressive did my fence panels easily with it wish I’d got one years ago

I bought this after buying a wagner 250m control Pro, I wanted to spray an MDF understairs storage area I'd made, drawers and doors to match. With the Wagner it was difficult to get the spray pattern right and the amount of paint it produced was too much for the job.. Wayy too much! ... and the cleaning was also a nightmare! So I realised I should park the wagner for bigger jobs like spraying emulsion for rooms etc... And I bought the Haupon, I read reviews of the American version called a homeright sprayer, made by Haupon! All good so I took the Plunge and bought it. It's easy to set up, the paint flow is really easy to control. I don't know if I needed to but I did dilute the paint to about 10% using layland water based gloss white and I used the 1.5mm tip. It's quite light to use but quite bulky so getting too tight spaces is difficult but for everything else it was perfect. The results are very smooth, and the paint dries quite quickly. I experienced very little over spray, but I would advise to mask everything it anyway because there are some airborne particles that will settle. I would advise to spray anything away from dust, because of the air coming out will blast this up. Cleaning took about 10 minutes and was very easy! Actually came with 3 tips, and cleaning kit, tools to remove the needle. I would highly recommend this it is a lot faster than rolling or brush. I forgot to mention that I did filter the paint for the sake of buying some proper paint filters I think I paid £5 for 50 it's worth it! You'll be surprised at how much **** you get out of fresh paint

I used this sprayer to apply Ronseal fence treatment to our garden fence. I had started painting the panels with a brush and after 2 days figured I had a least another 7 days of painting ahead of me. At this point I ordered this sprayer and completed painting the fence in a morning. For painting water based fence treatment on to wood it was brilliant. Very easy to use and clean up afterwards. The slight bore is that it empties the tank pretty quickly so it's best to have cans of mixed paint (I diluted the paint slightly) ready to refill. If I had a willing assistant filling a second tank while I painted it would have be ideal. I can't vouch for the performance of the sprayer indoors, with oil based paint or if a perfect finish is important.

Bought to replace a cheaper one that had clogged up. Much more comfortable to use and better results. Really pleased with it, but you need to keep it very clean after use.
