Absolutely, This is a great machine, follow the instructions for painting and make sure you always clean it well in between projects. Once you get used to it you'll be painting a lot of projects with ease. Good luck "happy Painting"

I painted an unfurnished large bonus room with a little over two gallons of good paint and I was painting over very bright colors. We also painted a metal futon frame with good results. It did a heck of a job. For the price paid and the backache saved it was well worth it!

I used the sprayer to paint kitchen cabinet doors with glossy acrylic paint. The sprayer worked very well. Keep the spray head moving quickly to prevent drips. Use multiple coats to build up spray surface.

For fine furniture I would probably say no although I have never tried it with high quality paint. It may work fine. It works well for furniture like shabby-chic.

This is much to big to paint furniture. I painted my entire house in a day it works great.

Having finished furniture myself, I would think that you would want a product meant for furniture. May I suggest that you use Minwax Wood Conditioner if you are going to stain and poly your dresser. Watco Danish Oil is another good option, it comes in clear or natural and a variety of other colors. It penetrates and seals the wood just by wiping on and off like a stain and you can use a poly urethane over it if you like. Teak oil is another option. These products are available at paint, hardware, Home Depot or Lowe's stores. I've found that paint store personal are the most helpful and knowledgeable about these products or look them up on their websites. Hope this helps.

It might work but I would not recommend using this powder on furniture. I do not believe it was designed for that purpose. There is a liquid spray that might be better. I'd read the accompanying literature to be sure it is for application on furniture.

Not sure if I can answer that - I think it depends on how severely you treat your furniture. I would want something more on a dining room table, but for a coffee table and end tables I think it would work fine. I used it on walnut cabinets I installed in a bathroom and it has held up really well in spite of all the humidity and temperature changes. I posted the results to a review I had read in Fine Woodworking Magazine and they rated it high in resiting rings from things like coke cans being set on it. Perhaps you will get a better answer from people who have used it more extensively than me. I would be curious to hear if anyone has had any problems with it.

I've only used this on a piece of outdoor furniture, so I can't speak to how it would work for you. I will say that it went on nicely, self leveling, easy to use. It's been almost a year, and my piece is still looking pretty nice. Good luck!

Not really sure, but I'd imagine if you had the right kind of paint, you probably could...seems like you can paint anything these days. Seems like the crafty websites love to use spray paint for a lot of old furniture, but I don't know if you need a primer (this is assuming you're looking to paint the entire unit). Maybe Better Homes and Gardens, or some other DIY site may have some insight on painting particle board furniture. If you're actually only looking to paint designs on the piece, you might consider painting a little spot on the inside of the unit, or some other inconspicuous spot, to test it out first before committing.

In my opinion this is not a fine finish sprayer. You can't control the volume that comes out. Over spray is A LOT. WITH THAT said. For basic stuff (furniture) it's fine. You get what you get when you but a 3-4 hundred dollar sprayer

No. Well... This is a Great solution for fences, (walls,ceilings etc.). I'm concerned about furniture though. For that, technically an HVLP unit would do better. This unit works best on large surfaces, it lacks the finesse needed for painting items w/fine details. However, if you're skilled you can do it with several light coats, and this system wants lots of paint, 2-5 gal buckets. Cleanup is easy but a bit if a pain when doing small jobs, and furniture is small comparatively. So, can it do it. Yes. Would I? No.

I am a customer just like you. I know NOTHING about what you are trying to do and I am NOT equipped to answer YOUR questions about your personal purchases and application. Please direct your questions to the MANUFACTURER or SELLER, NOT to ME! This is at least the 5th time I have been sent these questions, and I am not liable for any wrong answers. This is a leg for a furniture product. It is easily figured out for your own use in your own home.

It works alright. I've never used it for furniture until you asked. I would go with something bigger or longer that has more Brussels. You would have to keep brushing the same area quite a few times for it to be effective. Hope I helped!

That's why we used it. We bought some very cheap furniture from a friend which was particle board material with what I guess would would describe as a laminate surface. This primer allowed paint to stick. If you try to paint directly on the laminate before priming, you will have a disaster. The furniture looks good for the value. We basically got a dresser and 2 beside tables for $30 bucks. We might have done 2 coats of primer, but I can't remember now.

Yes, this is a great tool for painting and staining, but involves a lot of prep work because the paint gets everywhere. If your house already has carpet and furniture I would recommend rollers and brushes. However especially outdoor projects and things like shutters and fences this sprayer is excellent.

For home use and light hobby work, yes. I've used mine to paint trim work (baseboards, window trim etc.) with thinned enamel paint and to apply stain & poly finish on wood furniture I have made (T.V. cabinet, Medicine cabinet, ect.) If you plan to use your sprayer in a commercial setting (Multiple users, tossed in a job box at the end of a shift, etc.) you may want to try a turbine unit. For single users like myself I believe it is the best bang for your buck.

It should be fine, but this is a fairly low-end product, best for temporary use or in low-traffic areas. I'd lean more toward refinishing or painting the wood.
