- Not saying it is the right way... just the way I use IT. Many of y'all have been asking about my Wagner paint sprayer, mix, paint, and top coat. So I decided to do a video on how to paint with a sprayer.

This is exactly the type of review I like. How it's held up over time with use, small user details etc. The company should sponsor you. Well done. Again, the wagon came out great. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Couldn't agree more!
I love videos like this - you’re a great teacher and giving a realistic review of the tools, techniques, and tricks you use!!
I wanted to mention that the sealant you’re using IS a polyurethane (not polycrylic), it is just water based and that’s why you wouldn’t expect it to yellow over time and dry quickly. I believe polycrylic and water-based polyurethane are chemically different somehow, but I do not know the specific differences even if they have similar benefits. I think the main point you were trying to get across was the benefits of water- vs oil-based products, and I think that came across clearly!
Yeah I try to keep it simple and always call water base poly Polyacrylic because if I call it polyurethane people will go buy oil base poly. I can’t tell the difference between the brands that call it Polyacrylic and varathane calling it water-based polyurethane. Home Depot pulled all the Varathane products so I will be finding a new brand soon. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
Thanks! I’m glad the tip videos are helpful.
Wow, what a great new introduction!...That looks like a production company did it! I am impressed!
Thank you!!!
Thank you so much!! Now I’m not as scared to use this sprayer which I have had for several years! You are a very good teacher.
Thank you so much ❤️
Nothing better than a true review of a product by someone who has paid for it out of their own pocket and uses the product in their day to day business.
Yep freebies are great, but I feel a lot of channel owners will over hype a product if it is sponsored.
That aside, this is a really great tutorial on how to use am electric sprayer.
Final point....... that is one awesome bar/cocktail carriage👍👍👍👍
Very true! Thank you!!
Best tutorial I have seen on the flexio. Thank you! Just one thing for everyone watching...always wear a respirator. Always! That's all :)
Thanks 👍
Oh my gosh, I want that bar cart! So adorable and unique!
Thank you!!
This is a tool I have wanted for several years. Yours is the easiest to understand video I have watched. Thank you
So great to hear! Thanks!!
I've had a new one for a couple of years untouched because I was afraid to try it. Thank you so much... I'm going to dig it out and start using it.
Awesome! You got this!!
Doesnt matter if you use it the correct way or wrong way or even blind folded Dean 🤣🤣 you just keep turning them nice bits of furniture out mate 😁😁🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks 👍🤟🤟
Brilliant Video! I got a Wagner for Christmas last year and it is still in it's box. You explained how to use it beautifully. I'm going to have a practice tomorrow morning
Awesome!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. After watching it, I know I can use this paint sprayer, something I have been very reluctant to try until now. My future projects will get done both better and faster. Thanks again for thinking of beginners like me.
You are so welcome! I was there once as well so I am so glad its helping others.
Thanks for explaining how it works for the lay person. It really took some of the fear of using one out of it!
So glad it was helpful
Thanks for the tips! Your explanations help to reduce the anxiety that can come with learning to use a spray gun!!!
So glad it was helpful. Thank you!
Been using this gun for a few years and love it! Picked up a couple of great tips from your video I'll be using next time I get it out.
Awesome to hear!!
You did a great job explaining the paint sprayer. I have watched many videos and I got more out of your video. Thanks!
Oh wow so awesome to hear! Thank you
Great video!! Love the “real” instruction!! It’s extremely helpful for me who is new to spraying to get your tips and tricks! As always, love your videos! Thank you!!😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great tip on the dusting causing texture. I have definitely encountered that and it feels terrible. Also the tip and the temperature. My man you are an artist and a great teacher. Once I sale a few pieces I'm going to buy you a case of red primer. So.much clue in your content. Also living in Pennsylvania, I can't tell you how nice it is to have your videos to watch. I was born and raised in Oklahoma and it's just a really nice feeling to be able to.watch someone.from my area. Keep doing you man.
Well hello from Texas. So glad it was helpful. Thanks
Thanks for the tutorial on the Wagner! Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for taking time to do this video. You are very easy to follow and I feel much more confident pulling my 2 yr old brand new unused one and trying it! Lol
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for a clear concise video without all the faff.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for simplifying it, can’t wait to try mine out!!
You are so welcome!
Great review. I got one of these awhile ago. I have only used it a few times. The first time I got pretty bad ( I want to call it orange peel, but it was more like an intentional texture. ) I then started thinning the paint and now it golden
It is really easy to clean
Yeah just takes time to get used to it like anything else but once you do it really speeds up work over hand painting for sure.
Just found your channels tonight and I’m binge watching evuhreeee video. This shit is pure gold, as are your designs! Holy shit. I’ve been watching your re-designs and I’ll be thinking what the bloody hell is this guy gonna do!? And then bam masterpiece. I just bought a Flexio 3500 a week ago and painted in my bathroom. It was awesome. Getting ready to do my first flip with a chalk painted piece I’ve had for years that I couldn’t get myself to wax. Looked like such a pain in the ass to wax!!! I’m going to try your top coat you recommend. Love seeing your tips and tricks. That free handed notching with your circular saw was some crazy wizardry a couple vids back that I watched. Can’t wait to get to that level!
Welcome aboard and thanks!!!
Cheers pal, very helpful.
That turned out really good
Thank you! Quick and to the point. My kind of video.
Thanks!!
You are a great teacher
Thank you! 😃
Thank YOU for this tutorial...Keeping It Real and Just Showing Us As IF you was Showing One of your friends Or Son...I appreciate that and NOW I can Actually Feel More confidence To Use one of the 3 NEW Wagner sprayers I Have bought (I Kept Thinking a Different Model would Get Me to Get the courage to Actually Use...😂🥰👍👍👍👍💯
3!!!! I want 3 lol!! So glad it was helpful and y’all are my buddy’s I will always be straight forward and honest about how I do things. It’s not always the “right way” or the correct way but it’s my way.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist well If you count my Critter sprayer I Have 4 .. BUT that's actually Bad Kuz I kept convincing Myself That OH this One will Be Easier ..well Not a One Has Ever Had a drop of paint In them 😂😂😭😭😭 .I don't know whether to Cry or Laugh or go Crazy .. Probably All 3...
However This is exactly How My husband Would have explained and That's How I Guess I Needed this ..Even IF your way May not Be per package directions..You Made It Simple and to the Point and I Think all that Small Details being explained Overwhelmed me ...So Kuz of YOU ..I'm Gonna Get To spraying..thank you 😂👍💯💯
Thank you! This was a great review and explanation. :)
Glad it was helpful!
That was easy peasy tutorial!!! Love it!!!❤️💫❤️
Thanks Cathy!
@@DeanFurnitureArtist I Loved the bar wagon soo much!! Such a Happy gathering place!! Your craftmanship & vision is Amazing!!! You Rock Dean!!! 🌟✨🌟I think it was you asking about the glue during the heat wave we all have been going thru-live in Athens GA-ours was in high 90’s to low 100’s but humidity index we were 107-109!! Anyways I was trying to work on a wicker basket/mirror combo that needed glueing. For some reason my grandson turned on my little space heater-AC was cold- so I put the glue bottle nozzle to it and melted some of the glue at tip & was able to remove!! Hope that helps you!!!😀❤️😀
excellent video! you just saved me hours of work.
Oh good deal!! Thanks
You did great!! I honestly thought there was more to it!! I'm totally interested in this product now! Too bad they aren't sponsoring.....
I also appreciated the lesson on the poly's. I had no idea the difference! And now I do. Thank you so much!!!
Yeah being sponsored by a product I use daily would be perfect! So glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching.
Great review, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Love your new intro! Missed you........where have you been?
Building this wagon bar. Hope you caught the full video as well. With building, editing and the heat it took almost 4 weeks.
Thank you for sharing how you do it!!!!
Very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Now we now 😉
and knowing is half the battle. 😂
Very good . Thanks
Great explication. I bought the 595 to stain my fence with oil based stain. Can’t wait to clean it when I’m done. Lol.
Yeah that sounds so fun lol.
Yeah. The first time I sprayed the polycrylic, it went through it in no time cause I didn’t turn the spray down 😂. Learned my lesson there!!
You and me both. Learn by fire lol
Brilliant thank you
Great job thank you
Thanks for watching!
Thank you!!! This video is exactly what I needed to get over my doubts about paint sprayers. I think you should be sponsored by Wagner 😊 Have you ever made your own chalk paint? With the crazy prices of paint these days, I would like to know your thoughts on making chalk paint. Thanks again, I look forward to watching more of your videos soon 💖
I use Rust oleum (BEHR in some cases) only $19 for a qt. Sometimes on sale on Amazon for $10.80.
Thank you for the “your way” video. It’s so helpful. What do you use to stop bleed through say from mahogany before painting? 🌸❤️🌸
I use Rust Oleum professional grade red primer on 90% of my pieces. It’s $6 a can and normally 1 coat is enough maybe two worse case. I did a video trying shellac primer and shellac. It is very expensive, very heavy chemical smell and even after 3 coats still had bleed through. The primer I use is a odd choice but it works amazingly well. Most my videos have a Amazon link for it so you can see the exact one I use.
Thanks!
Welcome!
Do you know there is a Rustoleum base? I think there is a light and dark base and many colors. I go to a store called McClendon’s that has it. Come to think about it maybe Home Depot doesn’t carry the base to mix other colors. I have been using Rustoleum custom chalked paint for years now. Ace Hardware might carry the base as well. Check it out! That’s for the info. I want to use a sprayer. I don’t have a compressor. I bought a Rexbeti brand, which isn’t bad but some chairs and DIY’s new Cottage Colors all in one paint is running into big money. I guess it just takes practice. I have been checking out the exact one you explained. I also bought the Wagner large furniture pop up paint tent. That has helped.
I did not know they had that. Pretty cool! Home Depot is starting to phase out Rust Oleum and Varathane switching everything to BHER. They already removed all stains and top coats and switched to BHER products
Thank you!! I am planning on purchasing a paint sprayer very soon to paint some fencing before I try it on a furniture piece I'm working on. This was helpful in taking the fear out of the cleaning process, which was one of my concerns. QUESTION? HOW DO YOU HANDLE THE TIME BETWEEN COATS? HOW DO YOU KEEP THE PAINT FROM DRYING IN THE NOZEL? HOW LONG CAN YOU WAIT BEFORE HAVING TO DISASSEMBLE AND CLEAN? Hope that makes sense.
The sprayer I have here that is linked in the description actually comes with two sprayer’s. The one in the video they call a detail sprayer. The second one I didn’t show is larger and will cover much more space for walls and fences. It also holds more paint. I never really have a issue with the nozzle clogging but I also don’t let it sit long. A lot of the time I will just unscrew the paint container part that holds the paint and stick a zip lock bag over it if I am doing more coats. Then I will clean out the sprayer part. Hope that makes since.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist Excellent!!! That makes sense and since you explained how easy the sprayer is to clean, then that is the way to go. THANK YOU!
Ha! I love the stir stick!! I also MUCH prefer to hear how a real person uses stuff rather than have someone read me the manufacturer's instructions! Directions are great, but experience is better. It's those little hints that come after time that make the difference!
So true!
I would recommend wearing a mask even with water-based paint. And yes I know it's a pain ... but take it from someone who has been spraying for 35 years. It will take a toll. Blacktaile studios got a very cool? Mask that is full faced that is battery powered that is air cooled ! Because the mask makes me sweat perfusely lol and that adds more problems...
Yes but you were using a sprayer that puts a lot of paint in the air. This one pretty much just spits paint out on the piece. People use these to paint pieces on their dinning table in their house. It is not like a HVLP paint gun that hooks to a Compressor.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist yes this is true...
Dang ! Dean ! I'm just now getting comments and notifications from you from a year ago!
Gr8 vid mate. Have u tried one those airless sprayer? Cheers Graham
No I haven't yet.
Thanks for the info 👍...yes it is very simple. I say the consistency of chocolate milk lol
For this gun you want much thicker then chocolate milk. Think more like automotive it would be around a 1:20 mix. That is for chalk paint. Most normal paints need no thinning. Again it’s glorified spitting paint out or a 1/8 inch or bigger hole. Not like a compressor ran HVLP gun spraying out a pin hole.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist OK cool... good to know... I wonder if it works like a small turbine sprayer? I saw another brand that said it was ...I was part of a team back in the 80s that helped develop the lexair turbine system... I really like the "no overspray ..." and even with the high efficiency of the newest auto spray equipment I've used still 15 to 20 % ends up in the air and on the floor. Paint is very expensive these days and I want to use every little bit!
I've used oil-based products with that, and I find it *much* easier to clean. Mineral spirits clean everything up almost instantly. Shellac based is a different story.
Oh nice!!
Hi Dean. I still am going to send you an email about my drawer slides. I just want led to tell you, if you didn’t know, Rustoleum chalk paint can be mixed into a bunch of colors. The hardware store by my house, McClendons, sells the base and has color samples that show all the different colors. Just thought I would tell you. Thanks for your videos!!!
Yeah I have seen that online but HomeDepot here did not stock it. Just White, gray and charcoal. Now they are phasing out all Rust Oeum and Varathane since HD now owns BEHR.
Hi Great video! Do you need to keep a wet edge when doing a wall or ceiling? I’m going to try and do my ceiling but my room is full of furniture that I can’t put in another room. So I will have to do the ceiling in sections.
Thank you! I am not sure on that one. I have only painted furniture with mine. Sorry.
Thanks for the tips!! questions: what was your airflow for painting? do you ever have problems with orange peel look (my main problem) and do you ever tint your poly on certain colors? I started doing that a while back and really like how it looks.
Chalk paint I have the air flow all the way up. With the poly about a 4. Really varies on the type of paint, temps, humidity and so on. I just adjust as I go.
The only time I got orange peel was when it was really cold in my garage. There is a ideal temperature rating on the back of the can. Poly definitely did not like the cold. If your spraying it nice and wet and not going back over already sprayed spots it should self level and be smooth.
Hope that makes since.
I have mixed paint in the clear only a few times. I will on black to keep it from looking cloudy. But I seem to waste poly mixing paint in it tossing out what is left over. So I just use it as it comes.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist Thank you I live in Weatherford so I'm dealing with the same temps you are. This heat has been a challenge I keep getting craking do you think it is from putting the paint on to thick in this heat (I've been painting in the mornings but since i'm working out of my garage the furniture is hot to the touch even at 7am)
@@patrickkelley4838 could be to thick. I’m not getting any cracking on my pieces. So hard to say for sure.
Awesome info loved the video. So when you spray the polycrylic you don't sand between coats? Also I noticed you use verathane poly what's your opinion of minwax?
No I don’t sand between coats when I am just sealing over paint unless it is a top surface that I need very smooth like the latest video I uploaded that was black. OR if I see trash or dust in the clear. Everyone once in awhile I get a bug in one lol
I haven’t used water base minwax so I can’t give a opinion
@@DeanFurnitureArtist ok awesome thank you for the info
would it be a good idea to use this to paint a 1600 sqft home? Thx in advance for your time!
Most definitely but I would go with the larger canister and sprayer. It has a wider spray and holds more paint.
Great video just quick question I am going to buy the 590 and it comes with two different tips When using the chalk paint, do you prefer the detail tip which sprays a fine mist or the regular tip?
Mine didnt come with two tips it came with two different sprayers. I use the small sprayer. The large one I think is more for walls and fences.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist yep that’s exactly what I meant. I called it a tip but it’s actually two different sprayers a detail sprayer, and then the larger one for walls and ceilings. Thanks again for the reply and love your videos.
I have this and have done cabinet doors but have a ton of paint in the air and going through a lot of paint. Is my dial too high? I had watched another person’s video and they recommended to set it at 8 to get a lot of air through
The only time I ever have to turn it up to 8 is if my paint is too thick. I am about 2 on clear and 3 to 6 depending on the type of paint. I just painted cabinets black for a customer. 4 drawers, 4 doors both sides and both sides of the cabinet. I used a little over a half a quart of black doing 3 decent coats. Hope that helps.
Hi Dean, in yur opinion do you think this could be used outside to paint a storage shed?
The tank/sprayer featured in the video is designed for smaller projects. However, it also came came with a larger tank and sprayer intended for walls, fences, and homes. This larger setup holds more paint and offers a wider spray pattern, which speeds up the job considerably. So, if you have the larger setup, I would definitely recommend it.
Would Wagner Flexio W590 model be suitable for solvent based, viscous pliolite masonry paint?
I have only used water base in mine so I can’t say for sure either way. Sorry.
Dean from the big box stores what wood filler do you recommend that is easy to sand , paint that won’t crack over time. I found a product it’s a wood filler by bondo but I’m hesitant to use it . Because of. Cancer warning help me out brother🤙🏽
I use many different kinds depending on the job. Little nail holes I use DAP plastic wood or pastic wood X. On bigger spots I use Bondo for wood. For major damage I use Bondo auto.
Do you have a video that shows how you spray indoors like, what # do you set the air to? If you don’t, can you do a video on that? How do you prevent from getting over spray on everything?
Like I said there is not much over spray with this style sprayer since it is a low air high paint volume sprayer. You can turn the sprayer down all the way to 1 if you want it will just be a slower paint job. Just lay down a drop clothe and you should be just fine staying on the lower settings (1-5)
Thank you-
I realized that I have been using the wrong one. I have lost the smaller container and I’m using the bigger container (it has a bigger trigger/handle) and it’s meant more for outdoors I think , it’s not the finishing one. I want to replace it but I don’t know if I can get it w/o buying the whole set up again.
Yes you can get it separate. I got a second one for mine at Home Depot for $29. Yeah the one you are using is for walls and fences.
And that was my greatest concern - canni use this gun with oil based paints, two compound pains, machine pains, resin paints. I need to paint a lathe, milling machine and other stuff. Is it really so hard to clean it after using those dirty paints?
I can’t answer that since I only use water base paints in mine. Sorry.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist thank you for answer
Bonjour d’Occitanie (France)
Merci pour vos explications, sur l’utilisation, le fonctionnement et l’entretien de votre pistolet à peinture. Vous avez dit que vous utilisiez des peintures à la craie, mais que vous n’aviez pas un grand choix de couleurs, avez vous pensé à y ajouter des pigments naturels ou synthétique (suivant les contrainte technique de la peinture. Les pigments naturels sont chers, mais souvent utilisé pour ceux qui utilisent la peinture à la farine ou les tempera (peintures naturelles et anciennes). Je sais qu’en France il existe (cela doit aussi exister aux U.S.A) des colorants à ajouter a une peinture de base (qui est blanche) ou de la lasure (qui est transparente).
That's a good idea 💡. It's so hard with chalk paint sometimes getting colors added. It will at times take away from the easy sandable finish the chalk paint offers. I really only use chalk paint on certain projects. Normally when I do color I use regular house paint or furniture paint.
مرحبا هل يمكن استخدامه لرش ابواب الحديد
I have never sprayed iron doors so can’t really say.
What number do you set it at for the chalk paint?
8 on a warm day painting a large piece. If painting indoors I would turn it down.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist thank you
What’s the difference between the 3000 and the 590? Because your link take me to the 590.
I have the 590. I thought I corrected the title as well. They also sell a QX2 for $79.
But to answer your question the 2000 and 3000 are the new design that is supposed to have a much better nozzle or spray pattern.
@@DeanFurnitureArtist I bought the 590 before I realise the title said 3000😂 but it’s the right one. Thank you for your reply and keep up the good work. 👍
What’s the difference between the 590 and the 3500?
I’m not affiliated with Flexio so the only one I can speak to is the 590 since that is what I have had for years. I’m sure a Flexio dealer would be much greater help.
This thing is advertised as dual purpose but it definitely can not be used indoors and or for window wall paint.... Paint just drips out no spray ....
I use this indoors all the time and have painted many walls with it. I just used it to paint the bathroom in our new home. If you are getting drips something is installed wrong or broken.
Where is your mask
This is a low air high paint volume gun. It’s pretty much just spitting paint out on to the piece not blowing a bunch of paint into the air. You notice how the back ground doesn’t have a bunch of over spray on everything? People put paper down and paint pieces on their dinning table with this sprayer because it doesn’t have a bunch of over spray like a paint gun would which you would need a mask and to cover all the back ground.
Thanks!
Very welcome!
You bet! I'm a 67 yrs. old and a veteran I learned how to wood work during the lock down . Dang, you are so good at this and I have learned so much . GOD Bless!
