    Just bought this 695 Brand New about 2 months ago. And it is making a strange grindy/ticking sound but only when flushing, holds pressure and sprays completely fine, but when flushing it makes this ticking noises sporadically. Any ideas? I can take to warranty repair but the wait times are crazy...

    I'm confused about these new cordless sprayers and I'm wondering if the price jump is justified going up to the Quickshot from the regular Ultra handheld. Is the only benefit the ergonomics and ease of use? Are there other notable differences? Is the hopper system problematic on the regular...

    Graco recently released a new line of low pressure tips, not to be confused with fine finish low pressure tips. I think it's a great idea and fills an otherwise void when you need to use heavier bodied paints or bigger tips than what a fflp provides, but you don't need the horsepower of a...

    I have an old Graco Ultra 500 (series A, 1984 model) and for years it has ran like a champ until recently it was left in the rain and quit on me. According to the the troubleshooting manual my Pressure Control Board is done for. My problem is....I can't find another pressure control board...

    I want to get a new pump for my Graco 395, and the OEM part is about $300. However, when I looked up the part number I saw a lot of aftermarket pumps available from $50-120. I know Graco is probably better quality, but I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the aftermarket pumps...

    What’s your thoughts on cordless technology?.. I believe North America had the first release by Graco of the GX Cordless range.. I’ve had the pleasure to give the GXFF (GX19) a run out.. for me, introducing a battery option for the GXFF is the one that makes most sense out of the GX range...

    This is my first time using an airless sprayer. I purchased a used magnum x7. I had to clean up the old paint really good but now it sprays on its own without pulling down the trigger. Does anyone have any solutions? thanks. It only stops spraying when I turn the pressure off by the way.

    Hello, I purchased a Graco Magnum Pro X17 a few months ago. Used it to paint a large exterior with no problems, used a 515. then used it on an interior, again with a 515, though a new one, had no issues for 90% of the interior, then it started to finger regardless of the pressure the sprayer was...

    Wondering if anyone can help me out. I have a Graco Ultra cordless sprayer. It’s worked great and have run maybe 25 gallons of paint through it it. I’m having an issue with it now not pulling paint or water. I try to prime it and it just makes a ton of noise. If I take the cup off and put my...

    Hi I’m new to the game so I was looking to buy a gun and I saw this on eBay. It was advertised as ‘Graco hvlp edge ll pro spray gun - vgc’ I did an image search online and the edge 2 seems to have ‘edge 2’ written on the side of the gun. Is this an edge 2 and is it worth £250? cheers

    I recently purchased a Graco 395 for spraying interior. I was trying to use a 412 FFLP tip spraying SW pro-block primer but could not get a good spray patter no matter what pressure i set it at. The tip had a large finger directly in the middle of the spray patter. I had to switch to a 515 RacX...

    Hello painters. I am working with a Graco Airless Performance Max 395. It has been not holding pressure, so I repacked it and cleaned it. Maybe not well enough? The current problem is that the gun gets to pressure, sprays pretty nicely, but if it is sitting for a few seconds, the pump will...

    Since there hasn't been any mention of it here on PT, Graco just released their new fine finish low pressure tips. They're supposed to allow you to spray at about half the pressure of the the regular fine finish tips. It's been quite a while since I've been excited about a new product, but...

    Hi. I just picked up Graco 395 without a gun. I mostly hand paint or roll everything, it has been my main market so far. I am familiar with spraying, however, it has not been much. I might be getting into some spraying, like exteriors, interiors, trim, cabinets etc. I need a gun that is...

    I am looking to replace some old 1/4 inch 50 ft hoses that originally came with my Titan sprayers. I usually spray latex interior and exterior and 3300 psi hose has seemed to work ok. What brand hose do you guys use and recommend. The Titan red hoses seen to be pretty affordable compared to...
