Best spray painting tool for beginners like me. I bought a $99 pancake air pressure 6-gallon to go with it. It just takes a little practice and boom. I keep the nozzle halfway or a smidgen lower. The thicker the paint, the higher the pressure. For instance, something as thin as stain would need 30 psi but something as thick as latex oil primer, I went as high as 90 psi even after adding Penetrol. I used Floetrol for my latex water based semi-gloss with great success – I used 2-4 oz for every 12 oz of paint. Found out later that for white paint, I should have thinned with water because floetrol may slightly yellow the paint over the years but it looks bright white now. Also when I thinned with water, my results were not as good, but it probably was my distance and pressure combo.You really have to pay attention to distance. If 6″ away is giving you a nice finish then be sure to keep that distance otherwise some areas will drip and pool and others will be sparse, The floetrol really helps there making your work very forgiving.TIP: have a hook nearby on the wall or wherever where you can hang the critter. I had to hang it often even in the middle of pieces and if you just lay it down, it may clog your hole – for that I had a tiny wire ready to unclog if needed too.My top coats I used Ultimate Poly water based not thinning at all and only needed 70-80 psi. Really nice for that – no brush marks and a perfect finish. I didn’t even clean the jar or critter over three nights and it still sprayed great each morning and cleaned up easily when all the pieces had their final coats.Clean up for me was easy but time consuming because I care. For oil based I used the old-fashioned mineral spirits in the big can- not the ones that are white and thick – they did a horrible job. For water based I used water and a little dawn rinsing well. I was careful with the thin cork rim thing. I took the screws out each time fully disassembling to wash. I used a pipe cleaner for the metal straw part. and I kept all the pieces in a glass bowl on the window ledge to dry so I wouldn’t lose the tiny parts.I got so into it after doing a dresser and book shelf, I built a tent in my garage using those huge rolls of cheapest plastic from HD and stapling long sheets to the rafters and letting it hang down. Went around in a square and had clothes pins to hold door closed – Worked great to keep my garage clean and keep painted pieces out of the way of piece being sprayed. I had my pancake outside the tent at a corner, where I could pull apart the plastic to adjust the pressure etc but not have the machines air mess up my paint job. I just had the tubing going under the tent plastic. I used a small ladder to which I attached a hook for hanging my critter and rigged up lights to shine on my piece. I also had a handheld light which helped me see as I sprayed. White on white is really hard to see otherwise.Go for it! I love mine.

I bought a brand new Wagner HVLP sprayer months ago hoping it would help me get closer to a factory finish on cabinetry and other woodworking projects. I was amazed by how much overspray there was, even with the detail nozzle. I don’t recommend spraying indoors unless you want fine paint mist covering your entire room or worse. That, and cleaning the unit was a nightmare. I had to do a complete teardown every time and always forgot which order the parts went back together. Not to mention, it was impossible to get paint from the inside walls of the paint container. Long story short, I sold it for a loss just to be rid of it. After a bit of research, I ended up picking up this Critter Siphon Gun and a DeWalt pancake compressor as a replacement. After some quick adjustments, I had this thing spraying like a dream. I’ll admit, my finishes aren’t exactly factory smooth, but they’re getting there. I would definitely recommend thinning the paint more than you think is necessary. In some instances, I’ve had better luck with water than I have with Floetrol, so don’t be afraid to experiment. The small round spray pattern is perfect for smaller projects and minimal overspray. If you’re painting long runs of fencing or an entire house, this probably isn’t the sprayer for you. For the price, this sprayer can’t be beat–especially if you already have a compressor. One often overlooked benefit of this gun is its use of standard size mason jars. I can’t tell you how nice it is to be able to quickly switch between finishes and store unused paint for later use. The only reason I’m giving the sprayer 4 stars and not 5 is that it doesn’t stand upright, especially with an air hose attached. I learned that the hard way after it feel from my bench and spilled a jar full of paint on my garage floor. That said, there is a hook at the top so do yourself a favor and pick up a stand/holder.

I ordered this to paint our kitchen cabinets, and I was not disappointed!It’s super simple to use, and lays down a beautiful, stroke-free finish. It looks like a professional painted our cabinets. I would recommend the Critter Spray Gun to anyone who wants a pro quality paint job on their cabinetry or other small/medium sized piece.You might need to thin your paint a bit, but there are videos and instructions that walk you through the process. The tool itself is extremely well built, and cleaning is easy.I wouldn’t recommend this for painting your walls or ceiling – technically you COULD do it, but given the small size of the spray pattern (~3″), it would take you forever.Don’t hesitate – buy this tool, it’s amazing.

Requires the use of a really good air pressure tank. For a small project, i had to repeatedly fill air into my tank, so that was bothersome. Besides that, works good for the price and sprays good! Just make sure to clean clean after each use so that it doesn’t clog.

I use this to paint table legs, small furniture etc. We painted our kitchen cabinets, and I used this for the doors and drawer faces. Really liked how the finished product turned out. Smooth, clean. We used stain sealer first so the paint would have a better surface to adhere to. Cleanup is a breeze compared to some of the other spray guns I have used. Gets some pipe cleaners to run through the tube after you are done. The water may not get everything. All of the paint is thinned and I use floe-trol as well to help. I did notice that for me, the psi wound up being higher than 40 for a good flow on a 21 gallon air compressor. The only real issue I have is the washer between the jar and the sprayer. Either get extras, or figure out a way to make one out of rubber. It wont last long if you use the gun with any regularity.
