works well

Would Recommend

only suggestion I have is a larger tank so you don't have to refill so often. I did 170 feet of fencing using 8 gallons of stain. Worked without any issues

Will not spray!

Would Not Recommend

I got this sprayer to paint my house because rolling seemed to take too long. I followed the instructions for the paint manufacturer for if paint needed to be thinned or could be used as is. I tried going slow, going a bit faster, holding it 6 to 8 inches from work. Basically went through every trouble shooting guide there was to make this thing work. Went to run water through it to clean it out and it worked fine spraying the water. So I tried to thin my paint a bit more with water (using water...

Great little sprayer

Would Recommend

The Wagner Control Spray 250 worked really well on a walnut slab coffee table I built for my son. I was having problems with brush strokes in the polyurethane finish, and the sprayer fixed the problem nicely. Looking forward to trying it on other upcoming projects.

Does not work well

Would Not Recommend

This sprayer has a lot of over spray, and not the normal over spray. Myself and my entire work shop is covered in paint after using this sprayer. It also does not work well at all with water based sealants. You can not adjust the flow low enough to compensate for the consistency causing entirely too much sealer flowing out at once. I would not recommend this sprayer for any inside projects or for sealers. It is simply "ok" when it comes to paints.

When using the detail finish nozzle, thin paint about 10% and spray from 6". If this doesn't solve the problem, give us a call at 800-328-8251.
