2 Pack

I came across these a few years ago at Home Depot and I tried them on a few small things that I wanted to paint on my racecar and didn't want to drag out my paint guns and compressor. They're perfect for small jobs, but DO NOT expect professional results. you WILL get orange peel, so make sure that you plan ahead by adding extra material so that you can cut (wet sand) and buff later. My only negative is that they seem to be a little pricey for refills, it would be nice of they were a little cheaper.

DO NOT BUY! One can was delivered empty. Not a single bit of air inside it. The other had very little air and a poor flow. This product absolutely didn’t work for spraying 1 seat cushion with a liquid leather sealant. What little air there was caused the liquid to spill out the sides where the jar met the can of air. The final result was a huge mess. From my experience and how this ended up, I can tell you this product is garbage. DO NOT BUY! Explains the no return policy, huh!? A huge rip-off from a borderline scam artist in this case.

I fouled it before I finished the can but that was probably user error. Used it to color and spray lacquer. Went with a 3 to 1 ratio of lacquer to lacquer thinner. Added dye. I think my mixture was a little rich because I fouled the sprayer about 1/2 way through. But I got enough out to do the job and it worked great until it didn't work anymore.

They DO work with cerakote. You’ll see online they don’t, but the trick is to waste half, yes HALF, of the propellant. Just turn it upside down and spray for 10-20 seconds. Any little bit of the propellant that comes up and mixes with the liquid as your spraying clogs the tip. Only letting sit or running acetone through will clear it. Back purging isn’t strong enough. They are good with very matte colors like Burnt bronze, but anything with a sheen it comes out as you’d expect an aerosol to spray a heavy thick liquid. Orange peel. For test pieces or accessories they are irreplaceable for convenience. For any big project or where you need a flat surface invest in a HVLP.

I am not a professional refinisher, and until I purchased these, I'd tried only rattle can nitro (stewmac, old masters, and reranch). Those rattle cans did well, but put out larger droplettes, and were prone to throw out larger drops toward the end of the can. If you're looking at this, it's totally worth it. I'm spraying Old Masters Brushing Lacquer, cut 50/50 with lacquer thinner. (I also dabbled with full strength, and 3:1 (lacquer:thinner). I just like it thin for control, as I'm no master! The mist is so fine! It's pressure is low, and smooth. You can mist-on coasts, or lay it a little heavier by going over an area a number of times (I'd get everything wet, wait 3 minutes, and wet it all again, ad nauseum.) This does NOT do the heavy flowing coats of an airgun. It IS much more like any of the small air-brushes you've seen...slow, very fine mist, and low volume put out. But, it's steady, and consistent, and seems to have a larger area of nozzle spray, in comparison to buying the cheapest $40 airbrush. I didn't test the full strength mix on anything, but both of the mixes that were cut with the thinner had a fairly minor orange peel (again, this sprayer doesn't seem to be strong enough to "flow on" a coat, nor am I THAT good with this equipment) But, it's certainly easy to sand out, and orangepeel is even and small grained. With regard to how long a power cartridge lasts, it seems to be somewhat on par with a standard sized rattle-can, and I get about 4 of it's glass jars-full of liquid sprayed, per power canister. It's super easy to control, and even changes pitch a little when it starts getting low on aerosol. Easy peasy. Very much an upgrade over rattle cans, very much cheaper, yet not as unwieldy or up-front cost in comparison to a proper full spray rig. Ya know what, I take it back. You can get dang near a flow coat. It's just slow to get flowing (it requires a number of passes with only 15-30 seconds between passes, and in the shade). In the sun, and with slower passes, you get more orangepeel. All of it is super easy to remedy, either way.

This thing does not work, I read & re-read the instructions & ended up wearing more paint than anything. Paint spewed out everywhere except on what I wanted to paint. You cannot return, they don't allow it. Even if you paid the shipping back, you still cannot return it. Very disappointed, cause I can't paint well will a brush, but spray should have been pretty easy - it was a custom color & wanted the color to match the front door & there is no spray paint in that particular color. So, BUYER BEWARE. Thank goodness I didn't spend too much on it, I will resell it if I can.

Shooter ready.. standby.. BEEEPp. ok let's not waste time. If you cant afford to pay for Cerakote, don't want to wait the long turn around time and don't have the expensive equipment to Cerakote like the pros. This is the sprayer for you. I don't have large enough air compressor, nor paint gun and sand blaster. I wanted to cerakote my beretta 92 compact barrel. So I just use Ensolve to de grease. You can can use Brakekleen but I already have ensolve in the house. I use Steel wool to dull and remove the parkerized finish on the barrel, right down to the bear metal. You don't have to, but I did. After you remove the current finish/ dull the barrel I was ready to paint. Follow the instructions to prep you cerakote paint. When your paint is prepped, pour your cerakote paint into the included glass jar. using a mesh filter. Before you spray, degrease your barrel one time after using steel wool to remove the current finish. Then, Instead of putting it in the oven, I used my brothers Hair dryer after de greasing the 2nd time. I connected the preval sprayer power unit and hit my barrel with a very nice Glacier Silver thin coat. Only 1 thin coat is needed for pistol barrel. Thank you Preval, I can now Cerakote at home on the cheap. Excellent product. I will buy again.

This is an absolutely crappy product. Not only did it not work, but it’s splattered paint all over my shorts and my kitchen as well. So I wasted my time, ruined a pair of shorts, and messed up the floors in my house. I’m a home builder. This is not up to the status quo. This is so infuriating.

Bought it for the painters that work for me for touch up finishing on site when we don't want to lug around our full spray systems just to touch up. The guys told me it worked really great and could be used on smaller jobs alone. They were very happy.

Nice product

Works well. Watch videos before because if not used correctly, you'll have terrible results. I gave this 4 stars because there is very little useful information provided on how to use. You have to do some research in order to know how to use properly.

These spray bottles can be very unreliable but when they DO work, Spray glazes on pottery well.
