  • Broken Graco Quickshot. I broke my Graco Quickshot and need to take apart! My Graco Quickshot is not spraying anymore after running 85 gallons through it. Stay tuned as I take apart my broken Graco Quickshot we will take apart the gun. Look at where the needle repair kit is located, solenoid trigger kit is located. How to remove the Graco Quickshot pump, hose and take a look inside. Lastly we will put back together the broken Graco quickshot.

    It was very generous of you to take the time to make this video and post it, which will be beneficial to many people, for sure. Great job! It looked like it was a bit of a struggle to turn the new cup to the "lock" position. You might want to lube the rubber gasket on the cup to make it rotate easier and potentially make the gasket last longer. Most people would probably use Vaseline, but I prefer to use MolyKote 111, which is made for such applications.

      Yes great tip someone else recommended Vaseline and I’ve been using it. Seems to work great I will check out the moly cote 👌🏻

    After watching a few videos online, there are a few other things you can clean. On the pump, there are large plastic allan sockets. There are 3 plastic ball valves that can also get clogged and cleaned out.

    Thanks for the effort...
    I have a truecoat that just went south... i called my local airless repair shop today -- he said not worth the cost of repair. Also he said once he opens the tc the integrity of the unit is shot.
    Now here is his suggestion: he said the quickshots are coming in fast and furious. He said it's a great unit BUT wait another year while they graco works out the kinks
    Interesting... thanks again. Fascinating

    • @mallerpaintingcompany
      @mallerpaintingcompany  4 месяца назад

      Yes I’m guessing after all the hype wears off the quickshot will come down in price significantly and maybe the will come out with an improved version. They are already improving the gun with the “power shot attachment” I don’t see why they wouldn’t add that gun on the quickshot next model. But we’ll see! Thanks for watching 💪😎

    thanks for the video.
    Top Tip for you, run some vasoline/patroleum jelly around the threads (plastic - and the metal of the tip guard) on the lid and also around where the white pot sits in the black holder, (not on the rubber seal though).
    This stops paint drying and making it tight to remove.

    Thanks for video man. I bought one about a month ago and love it. Mine still works but love watching these videos for back up. Thank you for taking the time and showing us. I use mine to cut in ceiling with my shield and spraying the corners of the inside of the house. I’ve done 2 houses and cut my time by a lot. Oh these are new construction homes.

    • @mallerpaintingcompany
      @mallerpaintingcompany  4 месяца назад +1

      That’s a great idea! Yes even with a repair every 80-100 gallons they are still worth every penny in my opinion. Thanks for watching 💪

      No problem 😉 after diagnosing my Quickshot it’s either the gun or the pump are the weak spots on these that break with heavy use. After trying the gun off my other quickshot it didn’t fix it so purchased a new pump and problem solved. Pumps are $239 and new guns are $339 hopefully help you when and if your machine breaks 💪

    You were told by the repair shop what? I just replaced my pump because it exploded after about 45 gallons.... Having to wait a week for the new $275 pump theres an obstruction somewhere and paint won't flow properly.... Thanks for the video! New subscriber!

      I got around 90 gallons before my pump went out. Gun took a shit around 80 on my other unit. But… I’m beating the crap out of them making money 💰 💪 thanks for the sub my fellow painter!

  • @ome6931

    My quick shot went out today. Red light was blinking 4 times every time I tried spraying. According to the manual it needs a new motor or pump . I got early November and haven’t even ran 15 gallons through it. I spoke to my SW sales rep and they told me that it might be covered under warranty.

    • @mallerpaintingcompany
      @mallerpaintingcompany  3 месяца назад +1

      Yes sir it’s under warranty for 1 year after purchase as long as it was used responsibly. I’m guessing it’s the pump if you can hear it run when you pull the trigger but nothing comes out . That was the problem with mine. They are $235 for a new pump and a 20 minute fix either way

    It's the gun. I had the same issue. Apparently the solenoid which is the main part of the gun that pulls the needle in and out went bad. They sent me a new gun and I replaced it and it works fine again.

    • @mallerpaintingcompany
      @mallerpaintingcompany  4 месяца назад

      Yes the solenoid is a common failure and Graco will repair it for free in the first year one time if you keep receipt. However the new gun I purchased did not fix. It was actually the pump which is cheaper than a new gun 😀 and now I have a back up gun!

    Does the the orange gasket left on the table at the end not required to be replaced, or was it from another video, I did enjoy this one thanks

    • @mallerpaintingcompany
      @mallerpaintingcompany  2 месяца назад

      Great question! that orange gasket goes in the hose plug ins on both sides to make it water tight otherwise the water will fry your plug in and you will need a new hose. First time I pulled everything apart I was like where the heck did this fall out of 🤔 had to read the manual to locate where that gasket went!

    If you use it only once without the filter it will get an obstruction likely in the top of the gun.....

      With the tip off, does it spray out water then just stop or does it just keep pumping water out?

      I have 3 Graco 9.5s and prefer the Quickshot personally. But yes it’s still pretty pricey hopefully they’ll come down to 6/$700ish in a year like the other handhelds did
