Ratings & Reviews for Graco Magnum 257025 Project Painter Plus Handheld Paint Sprayer for DIY Projects

Good Investment

I bought this to paint my kitchen cabinets. You’ll spend a lot of time taping off/isolating the room but the win is gained with no brush marks..I used a 315 tip with Behr cabinet & trim paint. Cabinets turned out great and my wife is very happy with her “new” kitchen.

Great Sprayer

Great Sprayer !! Purchased for small projects around my home . Looking to purchase a lbigger unit in the near future..

Works as Advertised

Works great, cleanup easy and overspray minimal. Spray pattern perfect and pressure. Used it painting the outside of my well house, workshop and garden shed with solid color stain. When it clogged followed directions and cleared it quickly. Easy to use and I used 1 gal cans. Next project is inside my house.

Compact size and excellent performance

I am very happy with the sprayer. It has made painting so much quicker and easier

Super sprayer for the price

I bought this to replace a cheaper one I had , great improvement ran 5 gallons thru it and the pump hardly worked and it had plenty of pressure every time I squeezed the trigger nice even spray , great sprayer over all

This sprayer is good for a DIY person. Graco includes in the box and attachment for a hose that aids in cleaning. Biggest thing on this sprayer is it's gotta to be really clean. WD-40. Is a good thing to have around. Makes thing go together easy, seal seal ect

Easy to Use

Already used it to prime my basement and ready to start the paint. Smooth spray and easy to get going.

Great value sprayer

Great little sprayer for the price point. Sprays consistently and is easy to use. I have the better upgraded gun that I keep with another sprayer but I'll likely use it with this unit.

Ease of assembly and easy to use.

Thought it would be difficult to use. But no. Quieter than I thought.

Nice machine but there is no swivel on the gun connections to the hose. Tough to hold him at the core T angle 📐

Would recommend

Bought this to stain a shadowbox wooden fence. Worked flawlessly. Easy to use and cleanup. Would recommend.

Great!

Have used this on a few projects from painting block to painting my shed. Worked fantastic and cut my time down tremendously!! Easy to start using.

Would not buy again

Purchased this a month ago to paint our 4-board fence. After spending more than 5 hours with the sprayer, over two Saturdays, I have not been able to use the sprayer to paint one linear foot of fence. Has been very frustrating; to the point that we have taken to manually painting the fence.

Worked well, saved time. I would recommend this sprayer

Nice paint sprayer

I'm new to DIY - airless painting. The instructions were ok, but found YouTube to be better. Wrote the steps down. I've done it a few times now so it's much easier and faster. My issue was it wouldn't turn on the 2nd time I used it. Using YouTube I was able to figure what I was doing wrong.

Really easy to use

I bought the sprayer with a specific project in mind / applying solid-color stain to my deck, but it’s so easy to use and clean that I will probably also use it for some indoor painting I’ve been putting off. The key is the prep work with the tarps & tape - the spraying is the fun part. For cleanup I also appreciated being able to use a garden hose but that it’s not required (I’m thinking of indoor painting this winter).

Go with the best rig

Very happy with performance. Setup and cleanup can be daunting, but after two 5 gallon sessions it’s running fine.i went with the graco vs the other major brand because I’ve seen the pros use them. Working on a 2500 square foot roof 2 stories off the ground. Watch the videos, read the laminated visual guide and you will be good!

No other way to cover stained trim with paint

This tool saved me countless hours and produced a superior finish compared to brush or roller. My project was to prime and paint 24 interior wooden doors that were previously stained and urethaned in my 1977 house. Two coats of brushed primer were not enough with brush strokes bleeding through, but spraying covered with one coat of primer followed by paint. Spraying does generate more mess so prep is a bit more but the results are fantastic! One side of all 24 doors took just under an hour. I w...

Re furbished unit

Bought this two weeks ago but have not used it looks new.

Great time saving sprayer

I am a first time user of true airless sprayer and buying the Graco Project Painter Plus is really worth it. First, the quality of the sprayer is excellent. I proud it is made in USA. Second, the setup and preparation are very easy. There are tons of instructions, tips and techniques on the internet on how to for first timer using the sprayer and I read and practice using water first until I become a pro on how prepare and clean the sprayer. Third, the actual application. It is fast, very good r...
