I bought one based on your original video...painted my toe nails, I did some job on my car. Beautiful! I used the roller there, the paint brush. It came out beautiful... I paint the walls... I’m silly. I love it. They call me Rubberneck
I bought one back then. Didnt use mine for a year then put 2 gallons of rustoleum oil based paint for rot iron fence through it. A week later tub was still stained black when I painted fancy woodwork on a front porch. Pure white. Both jobs turned out perfect with no problems. I love it cuz its way less mess than an airless and does an awesome job.
I bought the sprayer and light because you recommended them. Love the way it sprays cabinets and even use it for trim. Makes easy work of it. I don't keep mine as clean as I should either but never had a problem after cleaning them. Light is bright as hell!! Thanks handyman.
Brotha! you should have a fan running at the door opening sucking out those acetone fumes. Take care of those lungs. Good video on the care and cleaning of those paint sprayers.
I am a professional painter. I have many professional spray guns such as Ani, Rongpeng, Wagner, Graco, Anest Iwata. This device comes in the same shape under different names. Mine is from Taiwan and I bought it on Amazon as an extra for painting window and door frames. Honestly, I have mixed feelings. This is a spray gun with an unusual shape and excellent balance. When we hold it with a full tank, we don't feel the weight at all. It is easy to use, sprays paint well, but unfortunately it has some drawbacks. The first problem - when unscrewing the metal nozzle housing, remember to keep the trigger pressed. The same must be done when screwing the housing onto the thread. The reason - the thin needle often unscrews and blocks the hole, preventing spraying. The second disadvantage is the most serious - the knob + mechanism regulating the needle movement is made of poor quality plastic. Too soft plastic and it works unintuitively, turns hard or gets stuck even when we approach the upper limit. This means that the device often does not spray paint at all when the trigger is pressed (the paint is always diluted). And a tip - When adjusting this knob, you cannot keep the trigger pressed. You can break the above mechanism
Know this SO OFF TOPIC, but the entire time I’m watch this video.... I can’t stop staring at your “new” haircut, LoL. Looks very nice👍🏻 Don’t think there’s anyone out there that likes this part of the job.... Cleaning the sprayers after a job is definitely no fun at all; & yes, the process has definitely been streamlined & made easier on the newer sprayers they’ve got out now. But cleaning a sprayer is still something that no one is gonna jump up & down saying “YES” my favorite part of the project.....cleaning out the sprayers 🤣 Like the “Bonus”, “Bonus Bonus Bonus+” content you throw at end of vids once in while, like em. Until next time, L8Rs ✌🏼
You rock brother. I just recently found your channel. You communicate clearly and you have so much knowledge to share. I am helping my sons start handyman businesses and you are their professor. Kudos.
I love my graco sprayers for big jobs but the finish max is perfect for smaller jobs or where you don't want alot of overspray. Graco guns also use too much paint for smaller jobs.
I've heard ductless mini split systems are fantastic, and Mr. Cool makes a DIY system with pre-charged linesets. Wonder if you reach out to them if they'll hook you up with a unit just to do a video or something. Looks like you've got some insulation too, maybe there'd be some benefit throwing some rock up in your shop? Hope you're doing well amongst everything going on dude. Good to see you still out there making it happen.
OH CANADA.....Cow finally getting STAR STATUS.....also starting to sound like those infomercials...lol giving the shamwow guy a run for his money....thanks Captain Handyman
As for those paint cups you buy in bulk, I also save the 32oz yogurt containers my wife buys her greek yogurt in to use for that same purpose. They even have a lid!
Hey brother, new sub here, great channel man! Hey what's going on with your box fans? Guessing maybe an experiment from a prior video? 😏 Anyway great idea, wish I would have thought to record myself doing similar stuff a few years back. Got into eviction, foreclosure, and private owned property cleanouts and haul aways and when you say it's like printing money you are 100 percent correct! Really your a hustler but in the original sense, not the definition that most use today. Basically your days consist of picking up money doing mainly jobs that most either don't think they can do, don't want to do, or even afraid to try.. I was getting anywhere from 500 - 1500 per haul away depending on the job. Basically I would show up, empty the house of whatever contents the previous tenants left and haul it away to the dump. Perks were that whatever was left was mine. So I would typically get paid for the job, client would pay for the dump fees and or the dumpster if needed, then I would dump whatever trash metal or appliances at my storage unit until it filled up and get paid from the scrapyard, and then slot of times sell anything of value. So it paid 3 ways most of the time. Long (probably not so interesting) story later I taught myself online selling such as eBay and Amazon and is 95 percent of what I do now. Anyway if you see this just know you have a new fan and can't wait to see more of your videos . Very cool . Stay safe 👍👍
No you "can" clean your hands with acetone in Cali just don't do it in front of anyone who knows what acetone is lol This weather were having its kinda nice to dip your hands in a Pyrex dish full of acetone... Also, was that paint Kilz?
2 questions for The Handyman or anybody else. A can of oil based Zinsser Cover Stain Primer exploded and got all over laminate flooring. What is the safe choice and the last resort solvents that will get it off the floor? I have kitchen cabinets with caked on grease that I need to prep for painting. Murphy’s Oil Soap and TSP was no where enough. What’s the next step up in degreasing?
Lacquer thinner is basically acetone with a bunch of other chemicals added to it, usually mixed for a certain application. Like for example if you get your lacquer thinner at NAPA or some other automotive place that is more geared for automotive paints. Where as if you get it at a Sherwin Williams store that is going to be mixed more for acrylics I believe. Than I think general lacquer thinner you would buy at a hardware store is more mixed for cleaning plastic if I remember right. When was the cow on the third channel or is there a 4th channel I am missing?
See if you can get Mr. Cool to send you one of their self-install kits. They did that for a bunch of other CZcams folks in exchange for making a video of the installation.
Did the same thing about three weeks ago. I will have to try the acetone next time. I'm sure I will leave some paint in it for far too long the next time I use it.
Ive never painted with a sprayer. Do you see a massive difference between a foam 4 inch roller finish and a sprayed finish? You couldn't paint kitchen cabinets for example with a roller?
Another great video!! I am going to start building a built in pantry with drawers and shelves. I plan on painting it white but don't know what paint would be the most durable. I just purchased a graco airless sprayer. Do you have any suggestions?
I’m having good luck with Aristoshield from Dunn-Edwards in semi-glass. It’s one of those water-based alkyd paints. Goes on really smoothly with the sprayer, it’s very hard, and doesn’t stay tacky like latex. I’ve done a built-in closet, a kitchen island, cabinets and doors with it. It’s only been a year, but so far so good.
You should have shown the grunting and groaning.... Your female fans might have liked that... Thanks for showing us how to do this. I have not cleaned mine either and this will be helpful when it comes time for me to do mine.
Reach out to Mr Cool HVAC online for a Mini Split System for the shop. They have been giving out their self install/DIY kits to CZcamsrs like candy for a sponsored install video. 🔥 🧊
Gosh, I love this channel. Pretty much my go to for every time I look at a new project, "Hmm, I wonder if 'The Handyman' has anything on this topic?"
He makes watching paint dry fun & interesting ;)
I bought one based on your original video...painted my toe nails, I did some job on my car. Beautiful! I used the roller there, the paint brush. It came out beautiful... I paint the walls... I’m silly. I love it. They call me Rubberneck
Lets get together and paint each other up.

CA has it own version of Acetone so we don’t burn our baby soft skin. It takes three times as long to get things clean too! Great video!
This channel should be "The Hipster Handyman".
Little known professional handyman secret. Plants love acetone.
I bought the sprayer and light because you recommended them. Love the way it sprays cabinets and even use it for trim. Makes easy work of it. I don't keep mine as clean as I should either but never had a problem after cleaning them. Light is bright as hell!! Thanks handyman.
Where did you go for the flashlight? I looked for the link but had no luck.
@@matthewsalvador9783 there's a link in most of his videos.
Brotha! you should have a fan running at the door opening sucking out those acetone fumes. Take care of those lungs. Good video on the care and cleaning of those paint sprayers.
Hey! The thumbnail says "paiant" instead of paint, doesn't matter to me but figured you might wanna know
Great video!
Thanks. I was in a big hurry to get this done at about 3:30 am.
I bought one because of your videos! Never used a sprayer before and all my millwork came out great.
Hey # 1 handyman in the galaxy, it's not your hands you need to worry about, it's absorption into the liver.
"I can't do that in California though"..... LMMFAO!

i bought the super max after seeing your first vid. its not meant for whole house use but for window and doors, small areas, it is amazing--99 USD.
You rock brother. I just recently found your channel. You communicate clearly and you have so much knowledge to share. I am helping my sons start handyman businesses and you are their professor. Kudos.
Hey there Handyman do you have the link or name if those measuring cups you used? The bulk ones??

Just bought 100 of the mixing cups! They’re practically free.
Where is the link for the cups ?
@@jjs-by8ge amzn.to/31o7OTn
I treat my paint guns like my actual pew-pews -- clean them as soon as you're done with them and it's _WAY_ easier.
On this episode of how the handyman destroys California

Cool story. I did a few foreclosure cleanouts when I lived in Fort Lauderdale. Found some nasty stuff.
No you "can" clean your hands with acetone in Cali just don't do it in front of anyone who knows what acetone is lol
This weather were having its kinda nice to dip your hands in a Pyrex dish full of acetone...
Also, was that paint Kilz?
Bought the same sprayer last year, and I love it!
love that the saw blade is exposed and that you didnt cover the saw table before your started this--lol
Lacquer thinner IS acetone (amongst other things).
I would wear gloves with that stuff
2 questions for The Handyman or anybody else.

liquid sand
Try 'Goof Off' on the laminate. Take extra care at the joints.

Its on the 3rd channel. It didn't work to well on public land though.

Nothing speaks of autumn colours like acetone on the plants. :)
I don't do Instagram handyman how do I get your 3rd channel please?
"im going to take this outside and spray the plants." 😅😅😅
Did the same thing about three weeks ago. I will have to try the acetone next time. I'm sure I will leave some paint in it for far too long the next time I use it.
Man I've been Jonesing for some bonus content! I thought maybe it was on lock-down with everything else.
You should’ve added the links under the video for the flashlights
The sale is over. I will ad them back. Thanks for the suggestion.
I use a gun cleaning kit I got on clearance from Walmart. Works great
Ive never painted with a sprayer. Do you see a massive difference between a foam 4 inch roller finish and a sprayed finish? You couldn't paint kitchen cabinets for example with a roller?
Great!
I call them spray gun tips.
Hey Handyman, I wonder if an ultrasonic cleaner with hot water would be an easy way to clean the latex sprayer parts?
Thank you for the video! Informative as usual!
Bought my sprayer because of your review, thanks. Where is the link to the disposal cups?
I could smell those solvents during your video, thought I was having a stroke.
Love my super.......have used it for about a year now,!!
Mini Split install video????Maybe, a manufacturer would like the idea...
I saw you cleaning the latex sprayer with acetone, does that mean that I could use acetone to get “gunked on” latex paint off of brushes?
When my workshop is 90 degrees, that's basically air conditioning. This time of year it's over 100, usually.
Hey handyman, what watch do you wear?
Sniffin' too much lacquer thinner fumes there at the end. Haha
Thank you for sharing.😎👍
You didn’t link the mixing cups.

How hard is it to run some water or thinner though your sprayers when you’re finished?!?! 🤷♂️
i also discovered that Wagner had bought out Finish Max--now i know why.
Wouldn't it be wiser to clean your tools, especially the paint sprayers, after you finish the job. Just wondering....Like your videos btw.
yes. that is the idea.
I would love to know why you always have that bmx in the shop.
sold so many of these you can't even buy em on amazon right now. now what am i gonna do?
What were the names of those measuring cups.
Nice watch u have, man.
Yes we do fo sho
LIVE STREAM THE PAINT PARTY TONITE HANDYMAN !!!
Is alkyd possibly the kind of paint you were trying to remember?
That sounds familiar
Where did you get the measuring cups?
His wife's kitchen - she uses them to water her outdoor plants. 😡
You need a Mr Cool system in your shop!
Its in the works.
The beard is F'n sexy bro, lmao 😅😂🤣😭👍🇺🇸😊
You should have shown the grunting and groaning.... Your female fans might have liked that...
Thanks for showing us how to do this. I have not cleaned mine either and this will be helpful when it comes time for me to do mine.
Undiluted Simple Green will take latex off of anything. No wahhh-wahhh buzz from the fumes tho.
3 people watered their plants with acetone
LOL
Are we not going to acknowledge the TWO box fans back to back with one thick filter? Lol
I have been wondering the same for some time now.
They are a down and dirty way to cent the air of dust and fumes... not necessarily to cool the shop.
@@alsworkshop135 But why two stacked on top of each other?
Earl Stivers to be honest: can’t remember, but I know he did a video on it a while back
Ummm. You're supposed to clean them? Well this is awkward. :-)
I thought the same thing! haha. I bought 2 of them after The Handyman showed what they could do.
Check your Thumbnail
That's too bad because I bought the Wagner one and it sucked blotches all over the place and they are going to do the same with HomeLight shit.
just order the olight last night ...
Im lost without that little one.
Why not take 15 mins to clean after use yours days can be very long but what’s another 15👍
No time.
I believe that’s how they water there plants in California lol
Your skin absorbs acetone and it goes through your organs!
