Painted my whole house with this sprayer! Used the biggest tip and thinned valspar weather guard paint to 4 cups water to 1 gallon gallon paint worked great....doing my garage next!😁👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cuprinol Ducksback repels water. So to thin it down, especially at this ratio, is making the paint less effective. I sprayed my new shed yesterday with Cuprinol Ducksback and did NOT thin it down. Yes, it went through the sprayer, but it was slower, but still quicker than using a brush, and I will be giving it another coat a few days time when the weather is better and I won't be watering it down. Seems pointless in watering/thining this product down with water.
Low wind or no wind days are best. If you are doing a fence adjoining the neighbours garden you need a weighted sheet of some sort on their side. Tried without it and turned their rockery a bit green !
Not sure about the chemistry, but it sprays just fine, with a nice finish. I did two sheds with Cuprinol. I also used the Wickes shed and fence paint on about 20 metres of fence. VERY quick ;)
A good tip with any paint - Just look at the pain tin on how to clean up after use. If it says use water then make the paint thinner just add some water and if it says use white-sprit then again just use that. Thought it would be worth mentioning.
Would you say using an electric sprayer is better than a hand pump sprayer? Got the harvest brown ducksback and need to do the inside bits of a fence but with a brush takes hours...
nice video. the motor on tacklife 16AC will not power on at all after one use. I used it once when I first bought it on amazon, cleaned thoroughly and put it away..now I plug into electric outlet, no power. no nothing. Any ideas about the motors going out?
Had a few clogs from one bucket I made up. It was lumps of paint the the bucket. Filled pots through a strainer after that just to get rid of that bucket of paint.

Not sure how the washing stood upto that overspray but looks good and controllable.

Thanks for video, I was under impression that Cuprinol ducksback couldn’t be thinned and used in a sprayer, as it is water repellant.

I’m about to do the same! Should be fine as it’s water based.

Ih that's bad. I didnt get to use mine this summer because of all the rain. I might test it at the weekend to see if it still runs.
Just got some DucksBack and a sprayer. Good to know it’s 2:1 ratio. Anything you’d do differently next time?? Thanks for the video!
I might try running it a bit thicker, haven't had time to experiment with it.
@@highland-oldgit I’ve done it. Only needed a drop of water just to knock it back a touch. Your dilution was good for first coat.
@@JackD87 Glad to hear it. I was going to experiment with getting it thicker but maybe no need to now, thanks.
Great demonstration! Seems like a good product. Has it clogged up at any time?

@@highland-oldgit Thanks!
Looks good, how convenient to get this setup on a ladder to do the eave
The there is a strap to carry the unit on your shoulder, I just left it on the ground.
they just provide you with a shoulder type sling. so you carry it man bag style. no probs at all
It says on the tin that ducksback is for rough sawn wood, that shed is smooth timber, how is it holding up?
Really good. I'm still happy with the job it has done.
You could be a pro - you didn't bother to take the lock off!
Bought one like this but mine is not spray as this? The paint come our to small???
Put the bigger tip in!
God help you if ya get any overspray on the misses laundry mate !!!!!!
The washing was OK, the neighbors rockery, not so good ;)
What ratio did you use ? 300ml water and 300ml paint?
Think he said it was 600ml paint to 300ml water
Now I need u to put a video on how to put the dam thing together
I have see your video for Tacklife paint sprayer, I want to use your video for my product, can you leave me your Facebook, thanks
