![Airless Spray Tips [EXPLAINED] How To Choose & Install a Spray Tip](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gT3H7DHcnlM/mqdefault.jpg)
No muss or fuss in the explanation. Straight to the point. Explained very well with good camera work. This was exactly what I needed to get started. Thank you. Actual painting time is only 10 percent of the job. Prep was what took the longest.
Right about the prep time.
Frfr tho
I'd rate this one of the best CZcams instructional vids I've ever seen. Precise, concise, no fluff. About as close to a bullet point list as it gets. Thank you!
Glad it helped. Thank you.
Graco should contract with you to do their product videos. Very professionally produced video, straight forward explanations without the cringe-worthy attempts at humor and goofing around so many youtube "instructors" do. Looking forward to seeing what other videos you have made. Thank you for all the effort that must have gone on behind the scenes to put this quality of content out there.
Appreciate that. Thank you.
I came into the comments to say that very thing - such a well-done video without a lot of fluff.
subscribed as well.
I was thinking the exact same thing. So clear and concise.
I was going to say the same thing to @ #Caliber8Tools myself .., i've never seen a tuition video before that was done more clearly, precise, and straight to the point as this was done. Great effort Man, there's a professional career out there waiting , needing , and begging for people like yourself 👍
Gotta agree with everyone else. Straight to the point, no story telling or excessive yapping. I'm buying the same sprayer tomorrow and just happened onto this video.
This Gentleman should be doing how to video's for a bunch of products. This is how it is done! Thanks 👍
Glad it helped.
Just don't move your spray gun like he did at 9 minute mark...he has a Horizontal Pattern as pating comes out his gun and is also moving his hand back and forth Horizontally (left to right and back) which is totally wrong, you can never spray like that.
To Paint correctly, with the pattern in the gun coming out from Side to Side...you move your hands UP and Down and then you can get coverage and overlap your spray properly. This is good breakdown of the product (must be sponsored) but this does not show how to paing properly at all. He could have watched any of hundreds of other videos to who how to do that.
Vertical Pattern from Gun - Move hands Horizontally
Horizontal Pattern coming from Gun - Move hands Vertically
Always move against the spray pattern not with it!
I had a horrible first experience with this product. Almost returned it and watched your video and you made this is so easier for someone with ZERO clue. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. New sub here!
Glad you didn’t give up.
Great vid! Also, try spaying on the cardboard first. If gun drips - increase pressure, if you see two lines on the sides of the spray pattern and not enough paint in the center - decrease pressure!
Thanks, great tips.
What is pressure with latex what is approximate sqft per gal thanks
Can’t tell you how much I appreciate this video. I bought the machine, but thought about returning it because it’s intimidating! 🤯 Didn’t want to fail with an expensive machine. Even the dang owners manual nearly scared me off! 😮 😅
But you broke this down so completely, I’m about to tackle this thing with confidence!
Thank you so so much!! -Angie
Hey, glad it helped. You will be fine.
this was me, yesterday. i was just staring at the quick guide and it's like i couldn't read. even that guide left me with a few questions and i was trying to go between it and the book. like WTF is xyz part????? the hose adaptor isn't even called out on the parts list, and they act like they provided a cleaning brush but didn't. then there was the worry about wasted paint, and issues during operation............ UGH. here's me still cleaning up at 3AM.
I got it in yard sale for 100$ not sure how to use it this really helped . But I have to say still so many steps to get this machine just to start the painting wish they made simple machine for basic home projects.
Let’s go Angie! How’d did it go?
Very helpful, thanks for the video.
Excellent video! Everything was well explained and easy to follow. I used this sprayer for the first time today and followed the steps you outlined here. I’ll definitely have to check out your other videos too. Thanks for posting.
Appreciate you. Glad it helped.
Great job ! A 'newby' such as myself really appreciates all of the detail and time you took to make sure we understand the unit. Thank you so much !
Glad it helped.
Thank you for this video! Easy to understand for a beginner like me. I’m thinking of buying my first sprayer to start painting my kids’ bedrooms. Your instructions were very thorough, simple and direct. Glad that you emphasized the safety aspect as a lot of people tend to take it for granted.
Hey, glad it helped.
Just bought this sprayer for my house. This is the 3rd video I came across to help with the set up and how to use it. Hands down the best. The other videos didn't even go over the buttons/knobs on the machine. This was The paint sprayer for dummies video that I needed. Thanks a million
Glad it helped. Appreciate the feedback.
I loved this tutorial! I will be using a Greco for the first time to paint the interior of our home and this was extremely thorough and easy to understand. Thank you!
Glad it helped.
Fantastic job! Thanks so much! I’m much more confident after watching this video. Others haven’t been as concise. Thanks again and bravo!
Glad it helped. Thank you.
Agree wish I had found this before watching so many other videos
By far the best tutorial I’ve seen on CZcams!! Great job!!
Thanks, appreciate the feedback.
Greatly appreciated, I've had my sprayer for 2 years and frankly I was afraid to mess it up or waste a lot of paint, but I think I'm now ready to paint my kitchen cabinets.
Glad it helped.
Absolutely the best X5 paint sprayer video for newbies! Thank You!
Yeah for sure.
Great vid. Used my x5 for the first time today. Very good results. It might be helpful if you made another video on the cleanup. I cleaned all my individual gun parts just like you, but the part of the procedure w/ the garden hose attachment is the only thing that tripped me up a bit all day and I found myself having to read that section of the instructions over and over.
Do you recommend x5?
Awesome detailed explanation!!! You crushed it, best one I have seen to date. The tempo of the lesson was perfect 🥇🏆
Thank you. Glad it helped.
Definently. The cadence you speak at is very easy to follow and understand.
This is the most thorough and comprehensive CZcams tutorial I’ve ever seen. Saving this for when i buy my x5 tomorrow
Thank you glad it helped.
Great! Great!! Great!!! The kind of material that is usually poorly presented by many others, is so well simplified here by this great teacher. Thanks for job well done🙏🏽👍🏼✊🏽
Thank you. Glad it was helpful.
@@Caliber8Tools ....thanks, and I did subscribed too.
...but please click one thumbs up for my comments too.😁
Great video Man. So descriptive and thorough. You’ve given us confidence to purchase a paint sprayer.
Glad it helped
Great video; great instructor. Gets right to the meat of the thing and leads you step by step through the process. My first job is coming up... Thank you so much!!!
Glad it helped.
Thank you for the good explanation. I used to work in apartments and our make ready guy would always have trouble with this machine. He never cleaned it properly and it would always clog up, I still remember him kicking the machine in frustration losing his mind. I only had to watch this video to learn more than he ever knew.
Lol. Glad it helped.
Excellent video! Simple, but detailed, step by step logical progression of info on the use of this machine. Much appreciate your time in putting this video together!
Appreciate the feedback. Glad it helped.
Just purchased this sprayer and I’m so glad I came across your video. I was worried about not cleaning it properly
Glad it helped.
The price is that spray machine
I know its expensive but have a sprayer for any non waterborne finishes and one for waterborne. That's what i do with sprayers and my hvlp too. And honestly waterborne is so good and for the most part easier to use that it hust makes sense to only use waterbase stuff... so just maoe sure you rinse with plenty of water amd if you want extra protection use pro clean pr lacquer cleaner from sherwin williams then rinse more with water. And remeber the tips do have a life of a few hundred gallons.
Excellent explanation with perfect camera angles that let me see everything clearly. If there's one thing people don't do right is the camera angles and lighting. Makes such a big difference to the video quality. Now I feel much more confident using my new sprayer.
Glad it was helpful to you.
Agreed! Very well done video
Thanks for the no-nonsense instructions! Great job, and much appreciated.
No prob. Glad it helped.
I bought this spray gun last year but have been intimidated by it. Thanks for the video. I will be finally using it next week to spray the interior of a 2100 sq ft house. Super explanation!! Blessing to you!
Glad it helped.
What a great breakdown. Very easy to follow. "Thank you" for the step by step details.
Glad it helped.
It's amazing that Sen Dogg from Cypress Hill is doing paint sprayer tutorials lol
...and would you imagine that this part of his work is not even mentioned on his Wiki-page?!? 🤦🏻♂️
😄

Wakanda meets Graco😃
Lmao. This had me on the floor.
Had no idea thats who he is...but when you've been in the remodeling game for awhile you may find that the most herb-tokin dudes at the job are the paint crew...haha, so to me it adds up. Ha.
Great job. No useless background music, just a clear, concise demonstration. Thank you! Subbed.
Glad it helped.
Thanks for this video. Just got this sprayer and this is the clearest explanation I’ve found yet on how to use it.
You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
Great video for setup, priming and cleaning. You should’ve touched little more about the spraying part and adjusting your pressure even just for the normal 515 tip after the priming section. Some folks may just use your video and have spray problems because they are still in start.
Thanks
perfect video: he talks clearly, slowly, no rush, no background shitty music. 👍
very happy I saw your video. there is A LOT mote to operating this machine than I could have intuitively figured out. clear, concise instructions.
Glad to hear it.
You did a great job! I feel confident using my paint sprayer now. Thanks
Glad it helped.
Good video until you started spraying the wrong direction. The spray gun has a fan of about 10 inches wide. You make you passes the OPPOSITE direction of the fan. Your initial hand passes should have been up and down, NOT left to right.
😂 I was disappointed as well
Good video overall.
The guard on the gun develops the spray “fan” pattern, depending on its orientation.
The hose end valve supplied is designed to facilitate using water to flush out the system once done painting, versus running the pump. I find that flushing with water does a good job of clean up except for the tip and guard, as well the inlet screen.
I find that using a a portion of discard panty hose, secured by a nylon tie strap over the inlet screen eliminates a lot of sprayer issues due to dirt or debris.
Thanks for your good good effort.
Great tips thanks.
One of the best video I have watched about paint sprayer that’s how you explain to the beginners heads off to you boss, deep and attention to details.
Not everyone can explain like this only the smart ones. Thank you.
Thank you. Glad it helped.
What an awesome, detailed tutorial!! Thanks so much. You have taken all my apprehension out of what I'm painting 😊
Glad it helped.

@@Caliber8Tools Quick question, that “nut” assembly for the spray guard, how much do you need to tighten it? It seems like hand tight, but I want to be sure. I checked the book and it did not address it.
Good stuff, thanks for taking the time to put it together and offering thorough explanations and important tips.
You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
Very good , quick start tutorial, I felt ready to give it a try instantly.

No problem. Glad it helped.
Great directions and instructions!!!! Excellence!!!!
Glad it helped. Thank you.
Great vid bruv. Easy to follow and close ups spot on.
One thing I was told by a sprayer was he cleans his sprayer by putting hose in either a bucket of clean soapy water or turps/white spirit and flushed it through till only clean water or white spirit come out.
Apparently it’s a lot quicker and without risk of loosing parts or damaging them.
I’m a roller and brush guy myself. Old school as you say so what do I know.
He’s right. Glad it helped.
Best video hands down. Thank you sir.
Glad it helped.
Great video! I just bought one of these sprayers and this helped a lot. Thanks!

Glad it helped. Thank you.

You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
