What happens here

A common question is whether Graco tips can be used with non-Graco spray guns, such as Titan or Sherwin Williams guns.

The tip guard is the component that the spray tip screws into, and it needs to match the tip's brand.

Goal: Understand if paint sprayer tips are interchangeable between brands.

And as long as you have the proper guard, then that will actually screw onto the gun. The thread patterns on all the guns are just the same. So, hopefully that answers the question about whether you can use or cross interuse uh different manufacturers of tips with different guns. So, there you have it. Typically on our exteriors, we're using 515s. We're using 310s. On the interiors, we're typically using 1221s for new construction. Uh we're
