Can this sprayer be used to spray light oils such as peanut oil or canola oil?

Yes it can nothing water based it will rust but please understand it is not approved for foods

Yes, it should work very well with light oils if you want a spray and not a stream.

I believe it will spray light oils without any problem. I have not sprayed anything but stoddard's solvent through mine. I am very satisfied with the quality and performance of this product.

I would believe it should but can not say for sure. We use it for a solvent however once you add the pressure as long as it is a very light oil.

Operating instructions indicate the following: "Additives are NOT recommended." I haven't tried it, however would ASSUME it to be alright if oils are used judiciously.

Sadly it cannot. The manual explicitly states to NOT use solid fats depsite the fact that solid fats(saturated) are the most suitable for deep drying due to their high smoke points and lower amount of omega-6 fatty acids. Vegetable and canola oils are poor choices almost all of the. i would make an exception for peanut oil in small doses. I will be returning this item for this reason. It seems most of the fryers in the $80-$100 range CAN indeed use solid fats and I will look at purchasing one of those.

Yes just use light spray or just keep your eyes on it and move the food around the natural oils will work

You can spray oil based products but I have never done it. Check out Graco's instruction videos on Youtube.

I see no reason why it would not work. I don't think I would leave it in the sprayer, but it should work. It handles Roundup well. We do not leave any thing in it. Mix only what you will use.

Yes, but would be better if you used a sprayer as Star Bright is not very thick.

I doubt you'd like the results! The sprayer puts out a rather uneven (for painting) spray and has a limited range of spray patterns which are are simply controlled by the nozzle. I'd recommend an inexpensive paint sprayer. It's also designed to work with a very thin liquid.

Yes, if you wanted to. It can be used for many things. I sometimes will use peanut oil, my oil of choice for frying, and then deep fry some chicken in it. The height is great for splatter control, and pressure cooking the chicken reduces the cooking time.

you may be able to, I never tried using the jar to see on how big of an area it can spray. the sprayer with the 'cup' on top does not spray that big of an area

Yes, the sprayer works very well, and I like the option of using 5 gallon containers for big areas. It is a little harder to clean up after using oil base paints then water base as you have disassemble the spray gun to clean.

I believe the sprayer only works with most liquid chemicals. The instructions tell you to pump the sprayer 30 times for maximum spraying.

I would say yes. I have this unit and see no reason why not. A few drops into the water reservoir would pass through the atomizer with no issue. More than 'a few drops' would not be recommended as the viscocity of the oil would affect atomization. Still, in that case, running it on straight water a time or two would clear it, most likely.

I use peanut oil as it has a high smoke factor - the tiniest bit of oil is used with stir fry , so shouldn't be a problem

Sure, you can use it with any oil you have, just drop twice more (drops) oil then manufacturer suggests for better (noticeable) result

You can, but you will be disappointed. The pressure of the spray is very low.
