can this sprayer spray oil paints?

Hi Taher, yes it can. It's just harder to clean when oil paint is used-you made need to add paint thinner before use.

I imagine it would work with a sprayer, but it is so smooth when it goes on, I wouldn't think you would need to spray it. I typically use a foam brush to avoid the opportunity of brush strokes with this product.

No it cannot. I decided not to use the oiler because I will eventually be painting.

Nope. In my experiance with It it won't spray anything thick. Even just regular paint. Not unless u thin it with a ton of water.

Yes. For all sprayers you need to thin paint. I used this sprayer to do a fence in solid stain and that had to be thinned. It worked great once I got the right viscosity which was easy to accomplish with the provided measurement bucket and viscosity cup. Also, check the paint manufacturer's ratio for thinning which should be on the can.

nope not at all.. this model allows you to attach a garden hose to it and flush it out or you can do the old fashion way of cleaning with a clean bucket of water and allowing the sprayer to pump the clean water, to flush the paint out

I would not use this sprayer to spray resin, there are other sprayers made for that.

It has a tube that siphons the paint so unless its full it likely wouldn't be able to spray ceilings. I think Wagner has a tool specifically for painting ceilings.

It works just fine for a paint sprayer. The DWFP5513 has the power and capacity needed........

I wouldn't think so. I have not done any spray painting so a Iam by no means an expert. I would think the key to even application of paint is constant pressure. This compressor cycles frequently to keep pressure in the tank. Note I am using for airing up automobile tires. Spray painting may draw less volume down and thus the compressor maybe fine depending on the air requirement of the paint spray gun.Good Luck

This gun is for painting automotive. It has very fine ports and paint passages, normal oil or latex base paints will not work. Check for a contractor sprayer.

I would think it would work, but could be wrong. I had to really thin down the paint to get it to spray.

Never tried over spray paint, but I would assume that it would work. Paint is paint.

yes it has worked for me,if the paint is thin enough you can spray just about any thing with this set up.

Yes, however it must be thinned with mineral spirits regarding oil paints. Have used it several times with oil and latex paints. Works ok but I wish I had gone with the more expensive model from rockler.

Yes. But you MUST follow the directions for cleaning afterwards. LOTS of water thru the unit, use the solution that comes with it and remove and clean every part that is removable and clean those as well. This sprayer is a great time saver and will last and last if cared for properly. Any paint left will dry up, become impossible to clean and you will have ruined it. We have even used deck stain. Can't say it enough - clean clean clean. And as another person said - proper tip. Also very powerful sprayer so use caution as it can literally slice through skin.
