Beside price, what is the difference in the Chapin 19049 and the Chapin 1949 model sprayers? I will be using a solvent-based concrete sealer. Thx!

This has been answered before check answer in1949 model sprayers. If you are going to use the sprayer a lot go for the more expensive one. This is a great sprayer it will last for a long time. Hard to find usually only at higher end suppliers stores or online. I have a termite control business and have put many different pesticides through it oil base, powered base, water base with no problems.

19049 has a higher end hose & triple liner inside the can the 1949 is what we use because the only thing that wears out is the trigger on the wand and sometimes the hose 50.00 difference

Use a "Solo 425 4-Gallon Professional Piston Backpack Sprayer with a 4 gallon capacity". Available here on Amazon for appx. $87.00 Remember ..."Piston"..... NOT "Diaphragm"

Hi, Gretchen. If your Spray Doc has a model number on it, order the parts kit for that model. The type of kit all depends on what is wrong with your sprayer. Mainly all you should need is a seal kit for it, that is usually what goes away with time and use. Hope this helps ---Don K.

I have had the more expensive sprayers and to be quite frank!!! I really do not have enough experience to use them properly. The Tool Force A-C2 is very easy to use and makes me seem like I know what I am doing. You might want to check with a professional on which one is right for you by you experience. I had no problems with this gun having runs or over spray and that is what really impressed me.

I use it to spray concrete retarder, it does a nice job with a nice even mist and a good range. You can buy different tips so I'd think it would work with different viscosities. It's really well built with high quality parts, will last a long time

I only used this product at 1st. I changed to "Transport Mikron" for things closer to me and "Demand" for the cracks I didn't touch. Both must dry before touching them. Transport is more effective. Go to http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com and read about products and other reviews. Transport was actually suggested by an exterminator (it is what they use). You will need to buy a 2 gallon pump sprayer from a farm supply store also

Thomas, I used mine for spraying herbicides and would have expected the Chapin to also be suitable for watering plants. A word of caution however in that I had to return my unit after the pumping unit broke within just a couple of weeks. Personally, I would spend a bit more and get the Stihl unit. Good luck with the watering.

Yes, you can use any type of sprayer. That is exactly why bought this in addition to my compressor for my nail guns. I don't know about recovery rates but I'm sure that with an HVLP gun you could paint a car for example. Probably even with a HPLV gun! However, if you are going to be doing *daily* commercial work, you need to upgrade to a real Heavy Duty machine.

You can adjust the amount of overspray by reducing the pressure. I have put down over 200 gal of concrete sealer & when the wind picks up I reduce the spraying pressure which reduces the overspray. I really like the Graco X5 airless.

The spray is good for coating entire surfaces, but propellant systems for all lubricants eventually fail (in my experience.) For daily jobs, the liquid is less messy, and much more efficient. That get's my vote.

I went with the 26 gal. for spraying my lawn and was happy I choose the larger tank. Five refills for one acre. I found I use it more often than I thought I would. I mainly use the boomless sprayer, it gives nice wide coverage and the pump works very well. The only downside I've found is that both the boomless sprayer and hand held sprayer are made of plastic and can break easy. I wound up replacing my handheld sprayer with a brass Chapin sprayer.

I bought only the liquid as I use a pump sprayer. I prefer the sprayer method as I can spray into cracks and under things more easily and dries in place. I found powders are harder to get into cracks or under things, drift around areas more and generally harder to apply safely, staying where I want it. I also consider the spray method safer with children/pets as less poison is in the open. Remember demon is a poison, so best to limit its exposed open area.

The 1700 only sprays at a rate of .29 GPM and you need a sprayer that will spray at least 1 GPM. Maybe a Graco or Campbell Hausfeld, but they are expensive.

Any hvlp will work. You want to put on a lot of paint while using less pressure out of the spray gun

I don't know. That's why I had to buy new one. Old one I used to seal cement and it ruined it. Made the work go really quick though.

I bought both Sprayit set and the California Air Tools 4620a compressor a few months ago after a lot of research in forums, shopping guides and with CAT's sales manager. That's the minimum compressor for that sprayer. It was a major hassle to receive them delivered undamaged - I had to order the sprayer twice and the compressor 4 times! Their products are ok but their packaging is terrible and so they get damaged when shipped. I think they sent me formerly broken compressor twice. So if you do order and have a problem, be sure you take pictures as you open the box, just in case. To their credit, CAT/Amazon didn't try to charge me extra for re-shipping and Amazon wanted to give up but I insisted since that's the only compressor I know of that can shoot quality at low pressure although CAT makes the GMC one too. I tested the compressor and it seems to work fine although I haven't had the time to spray my SUV yet to get the final results. Hope this helps.

Is your sprayer a pump sprayer or a hose end sprayer? I don't think the hose end sprayers work with this product (but I'm not certain about that). I used a generic pump sprayer and mixed according to the directions on the bottle. It does take a few months and it does need to rain. Maybe give it a little more time, especially if it's been dry. Also I called the company directly with some questions prior to purchasing and they were extremely helpful. They may have some better advice.
