king 12,038 Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 It's that time of year when the fences need repainting. And using a brush is very time consuming.so been looking at sprayers to speed the job up. This 1 looks a decent price and good reviews. Anyone else use a sprayer they could recommend. https://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-erb561srg-700w-electric-hvlp-spray-gun-220-240v/11628 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ArchieHood 3,692 Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Just make sure the paint is thin enough to go through the nozzle, I think Cuprinol do one designed for sprayers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's exactly what happened to mine the seal on the bottom of the pump swelled because of hypochlorite. It ended up in the tip. I'm in Lidl a few times a week picking up mince and chicken.sardines etc for the dogs and ferrets And noticed they have 1 of those pump 1s in next week. It's got a Lance and nozzle made from corrosion-free brass. I was thinking of getting 1 for hypochlorite.and to use for TFR for the car and jeep. And if it works good then I could use that. And would be great for you @bird only a tenner. https://www.lidl.co.uk/en/p/garden-event/parkside-garden-pressure-sprayer/p30239 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
