Good question.. yes that’s what I do when using TurboClean, it seems to clean quicker that way.. Previous Graco models, I may cycle the pump in prime, then flush through the hose before repeating 👍 regards Pete 💙💯

Nice 👌 let me know how you get on - all the best, regards Pete 💙💯

I believe the Graco AXM / AXF flat tips are shipped in those containers 🤔 I will clarify for you on that my friend 👍 regards Pete 💙💯

❤️💯

Thank you Roman 🙏💙💯

oui mon ami un Graco FF LP 208 👍💙💯 Cordialement Pete

You’re so kind, I appreciate you watching.. good question 👍 what happens as the airless spray tip wears, is the orifice size increases - resulting in more paint being let out (just like going up a tip orifice size).. so you’ll waste more paint 👍 then visually the spray pattern (when you spray a test) will be more narrow, and can look oval Vs a rectangular / letterbox shape 👍 keep in touch.. regards Pete 💙💯

Thank you, appreciate you watching and your very kind feedback.. Yeah I plan to continue to make content - This is my latest video 😄 Choosing an Airless Spray Tip to Spray Latex Emulsion [COMPLETE GUIDE] ruclips.net/video/2JnMybhjj6k/видео.html Regards Pete 💙💯

Anytime, regards Pete 💙💯

🙏💙💯 regards Pete

That’s a good point.. there is snippets of information to help with trouble free spraying throughout each video, but I must do something specific to fault finding 🤔 Regards Pete 💙💯

Late to the party regards comment and support that football club of mine has had me up nights brother but super thanks for you my friend a small token of gratitude for your friendship and support ❤️

So very kind of you my friend, I very much appreciate it 🙏💙💯

No problem at all, always very much appreciated.. more importantly I value our chats, get togethers and friendship 💯 Speak soon my friend 💙

Thank you brother, appreciate you watching 🙏💙💯 Regards Pete

Thank you, appreciate you watching and the kind words.. it’s a very valid suggestion you make, and something I also made a comment about to Graco Product Marketing (great minds 😄).. I myself being tall, find myself not taking the time to dial in a CleanShot - but there’s a clear advantage to using an extension, even if only a small one.. A CleanShot can be tricky, especially when they get older and ‘seize up’ a bit, the ability to control the end of an extension ‘electronically’ could be very advantageous 👏👏👏 Regards Pete

Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏 ..Is that Tikkurila’s AR2 ? regards Pete 💙💯

You’re very welcome, regards Pete 💙💯

Hey John, yeah I think Albany Vinyl Matt showed potential, I’d like to give it a run out on a job 👌 Sprayed much better then it’s AF1 ceiling counterpart 👍 I find Benjamin Moore has something about it that makes it extra special - I’ve never used Ben before, but knowing Scuff-X pretty well, I had high hopes as soon as I started stirring it.. I wasn’t disappointed, atomises beautifully 👌 You’re very wise my friend, an LP 619 is a great size tip 💙💯 regards Pete

@PaintHQ All the very best to you and your family Pete

Thank you John 🎄💙💯

💯💙💯

Happy to help if I can.. Do you mean a Pro Connect replacement pump for the Ultra 495 XT, so it’s an Endurance Vortex piston pump ? Regards Pete

It’s an LP 617, the original green colour low pressure tip 👍 Which are now the new neon colour my friend 😄 regards Pete 💙💯

Thank you so much 🙏💙💯 regards Pete

Merry Christmas to you and your family too.. really appreciate the support, thank you 🎄💙💯 regards Pete

Thank you so much Barry, very kind of you my friend 🙏💙💯

Thanks for your input my friend.. The GX range are solid and versatile units for the P&D market - exactly how you’ve been using yours 👌 I totally get how you may want to treat yourself to a next step up.. Classic.. ST Max II.. or an Ultra XT like mine.. As you mention for fine finish mdf spraying, you may simply benefit from adding a hopper and fine finishing kit to your GX21 - so a hopper and smaller 3/16” 7.5m hose would enable spraying small quantities of fine finish materials a lot easier 👍 Maybe a new gun, such as a Compact PC, or even the Contractor PowerShot Standard.. lots of options to cover your expanding requirements, with various price points 🤔 ..Could I suggest you speak to Mike at SpraymanUK, the team there could discuss and go through your requirements.. I’m also happy to help further any way I can.. Merry Christmas, regards Pete 💙💯

@ thanks for the detailed reply 🙏 got the hopper kit and smaller hose, I do need to buy a new gun tbh. Thanks for the advice 🙏

You’re very welcome, anytime 🙏 Keep in touch my friend.. regards Pete 💙💯

You’re very kind, thank you so much 🙏💙💯

Thank you Matt, you’re a diamond -really appreciate the support 🫡 💙💯

Hey Matt, yeah I was very impressed with BM Ben, I’ll certainly be looking to use BM more often in future 👌 you’re very wise in your setup, nice and steady with a 515 💙💯 Merry Christmas my friend.. Good luck with BM Aura, I’m sure you’ll do an amazing job 👏👏👏 regards Pete

Hey buddy, yeah I’ve always been a fan of Johnstones Acrylic Durable Matt, it sprays very well despite its thicker viscosity.. you’re right, it can take a 10% addition of water and can be beneficial to spraying (and a brush).. thanks for your support my friend 🙏 Merry Christmas 💙💯 regards Pete

Same here! Shit my dulux account down two years ago the robbing wankers 😂

That’s a good point, yes there’s no doubt heating the material lowers the viscosity, thus lowering the pressure and improving sprayability with less overspray 👍 The Graco range of heated hoses are “C Max” 👌💙💯

@@PaintHQ Thanks Pete, now I need a new maxpac of tissues; my eyes keep watering having seen the pricetag...😭

😂💙💯

Thank you Colin, your insight and experience is always very helpful.. interesting your preference on hose size - there’s no doubt the engineering / science behind the resistance (and pressure drop) that ‘could’ occur with narrower diameter hoses, especially over longer distances, and / or higher viscosities. I do like the 1223 with a Jet Roller - do you look to spray relatively low pressure?. To eliminate paint bounce back, because tails are not an issue with the paint being captured by the roller 👌Have a wonder Christmas, and enjoy a well deserved break 🎄💙💯 regards Pete

Thank you buddy, appreciate your feedback ..Merry Christmas 💙💯 Regards Pete

@@PaintHQ I feel most decorators appreciate your videos, please keep them coming in 2025.... Many thanks...

Yes I’m always very humbled by the kind words of support that I receive 🙏😄🫡

Thank you Eddie, you’re so kind.. Merry Christmas to you and your family, wishing you a happy healthy 2025 💙💯

Thanks for sharing your feedback, I hear what you’re saying.. I have put a light smear of petroleum jelly round the thread as a preventative measure 👍 Regards Pete 💙💯

@@PaintHQ same here but WHY does it corrode so easily in that very spot!? Why does t have to be chrome-plated just to peel off so easily? Why can't Graco make it of the same material as the manifold bottle? I know we are supposed to squeak clean it every time but the reality is different on the ground!

I do understand your point and I can vouch Graco takes customer feedback extremely seriously.. I will share your findings and experience 🫡 👏👏👏 Regards Pete 💙💯

Thank you so much, you’re very kind - much appreciated 🙏💙💯

Thank you Phil, merry Christmas to you too my friend

Hey buddy.. thanks for your input and sharing your thoughts.. Have you seen this video? Airless Spray Tips. A Complete Tutorial to Choosing the RIGHT TIP SIZE ruclips.net/video/XNser2vbSiE/видео.html

@@PaintHQ Spot on. Thank you. I forgot that one but I did see it... Dulux didn't spray there too well (or well at all). I wonder if Airless with air assist would have fixed the tails but then again, so much extra cost for a poor products is just not worth it...

You’re very welcome.. my next video out this Sunday (22nd) follows in a similar format - but spraying emulsions / latex with LP tips 👍 ..be interesting to hear your thoughts on Sunday 👍 regards Pete

I was fortunate to field test the Graco Ultra XT technology before going into production and now owning a 495 XT.. Without doubt go for the 495 XT - it’s XT motor technology is a feat of engineering,. You get an Endurance Vortex pump, which its rotating piston design facilitates a longer service life.. Plus the pump can be swapped out by yourself (ProConnect).. it’s awesome, the quietest airless unit on the market 👌💙💯 happy to help and advise any way I can.. regards Pete

Thank you very much for your time happy holidays

Anytime 🙏 Hapoy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas my friend 🎄💙💯 regards Pete

Hey buddy.. it’s probably all due to practice having been using this handheld for a while now.. it’s actually easier to steady it with the other hand, I’m probably keeping my hand out the way for filming 👍 the Ultra QuickShot is much lighter and easier to manoeuvre and control 💙💯 regards Pete

Thank you my friend.. This video goes into more detail, spraying fine finish woodwork / trim paints.. Airless Spray Tips. A Complete Tutorial to Choosing the RIGHT TIP SIZE ruclips.net/video/XNser2vbSiE/видео.html then I have a video out this Sunday (22nd December, 0800 UTC) 🙏👍💙💯 Regards Pete

Hey buddy, it’s not so clean at the moment 🙈 I usually give it a real good detail cleanup with a household degreaser before any filming.. the footage in this video was when the UQS was relatively new 😄 keep in touch.. regards Pete 💙💯

Aloha my friend, thank you so much for your kind words.. if the Ultra QuickShot is to be used for small projects - runs of trim / woodwork, a door, frame in just one room.. a small ceiling, feature wall.. then yes a QuickShot with its small cup / hopper design and virtually no spit response would be perfect 👌 typically ideal to compliment a bigger pump, but now you have an option to add a PowerShot Standard or PowerShot XT.. I get your point and suggestion about the ability to ‘interchange’, it all comes down to price to facilitate such versatility 👍 really appreciate hearing from you in Hawaii, keep in touch.. regards Pete 💙💯

Thank you very much, appreciate you watching 🙏 it’s a hose / gun swivel, it’s normal and like you say it’s to add manoeuvrability to the gun at the wrist 👍 keep in touch, happy to help and advise if I can.. regards Pete 💙💯

@ thanks very much for your professional advice 🙏🏻

Anytime 👍🙏💙💯
