What happens here

The host introduces Brad and Matt, the creators of the Tipsaver. Brad, a career painter, explains his motivation for inventing the Tipsaver: he was tired of manually retrieving paint sprayer tips from solvent cans, often encountering issues with paint drying or tips rusting. The Tipsaver is presented as a solution to keep these components organized and clean.

Goal: Learn about the common frustrations with cleaning and storing paint sprayer tips, such as tips drying out, rusting, or corroding in traditional solvent cans, and how the Tipsaver product aims to solve these issues.

  • Gallon Paint Can
  • Tipsaver (assembled)

What they say

involvement with this thing so I'm a career painter started back in the early 90s and through my apprenticeship was trying to retrieve all my equipment out of pretty much lacquer thinner is what I always use and I got really tired of dipping my hand in the can and trying to retrieve all this equipment and so I came up with this idea of the tip saver yes so this is something that I've done for eighteen years I've been using an airless sprayer and I typically have a gallon can I take a gallon can I put about I don't know about two inches a lacquer thinner or paint thinner in the gallon can throw my tips off down in the gallon can and we do have an example down here and I just let them set down in there and that way they won't rust corrode and if there's any paint left in them because the apprentice didn't clean them out correctly they're not gonna dry out because they're sitting in lacquer thinner but big drawback you got reach down there and grab them so here's kind of an example right here of a can a gallon can that would have all of our tips and so you've created this device and what does it do so it houses all your tips gun filters and housings all in this I guess you'd call it like a chandelier type apparatus that's impressing that chandelier all right cool yeah right and so we've got tips we've got rat guards
