AMAZING Paint Sprayers. Titan 1140 Review
What happens here
The reviewer discusses the debate between 'high-boy' and 'low-boy' sprayer options. While high-boys allow a 5-gallon bucket to be hung and wheeled around, preventing the need to carry the bucket, he clarifies his preference for the low-boy. For residential exterior painting, he prefers to set the pump in one location and use extensive hose lengths (a 3/8-inch main hose followed by two or three 1/4-inch hoses) that can reach around an entire house. This method eliminates the need to constantly move the pump, significantly reducing pump wear due to less frequent cycling, which he believes is a superior approach to managing large painting projects.
Goal: Understand optimal sprayer and hose setup for large residential painting projects.
