I shall be finding out myself in a few days.The fence is in desperate need of painting but it's a long, naff job and I'd rather do anything but paint it. Has anyone sprayed a fence using a spray gun and compressor with a Ronseal/Cuprinol type product?
I’ve used one of those for years, never found it particularly wasteful at all, as long as your not spraying it all over the place. Get a decent one with a fine spray and it works great.A neighbour used some pump up spray thing to paint a few fence panels - it seemed very wasteful, as he seemed to be going through a lot of product for not many panels.
Probably got it set wrong and putting too much product on and / or not moving quickly enough?A neighbour used some pump up spray thing to paint a few fence panels - it seemed very wasteful, as he seemed to be going through a lot of product for not many panels.
I have never had much luck. That said, you can get it on much quicker than with a brush and just finish it with the brush.The fence is in desperate need of painting but it's a long, naff job and I'd rather do anything but paint it.

Damn good idea!Even a schutz/underseal gun might work, would surprise you how good a job one can do painting,
Worked at a John Deere place a few years ago, we had 4 traded in tractors in to tart up, we each had ours ready at the same stage, so had 8 wings, steps, 16 wheels etc etc all ready to paint at the same time, the usual spray gun was taking too long.... so we improvised
Schutz gun honestly made a very respectable job!
Yeah . . . then when you ask her what it is so you can work out what to get it off with, and when she replies it will wash off and ignores you when you point out if it washes off, there'd be no point using it, her husband will come round to have a go at your teenage self for upsetting his wife . . .Just beware of the overspray going over your neighbour's lovely new UPVC double glazing, or their pride and joy car.
good idea actually, i did epoxy with a normal hvlp gun once and it was painfully slow going as i definitely needed a bigger nozzle!Damn good idea!
Might be worth a try on Jotun and similar metal filled epoxy paints.
