Title: Airless paint srayers
Post by: Mattie on March 25, 2006, 10:57:56 AM
want to buy a small airless sprayer. Quality types available in my town are Graco and Titan. I do mostly repaints so it will not be used daily. (the odd fence, exterior job or fence for the sprayer.) I can probably get away wiyh a 340 Titan or a 390 Grayco but am I wiser to step up to at least a 440i Titan or a 395 or 490 Grayco for longer motor life? If anyone uses a small unit like this please let me know your thoughts.

Mattie, I have a friend who owns a Graco 495...He sprayed elastomeric through it...THAT'S saying something for a small pump. The new 495 actually has a larger, stouter pump assembly than the older 695...I know this because I have an older 695...

Titan's a good name but I don't have too much experience with them...

Good luck
