SprayIt Pro 21 Review | Sprayers NOT To Buy!

What happens here

In a dedicated spray booth, the presenter prepares the SPRAYIT Pro21 for its first operational test using water. He connects the spray gun (a four-finger gun, which he expresses a preference against) and begins the priming process. As the sprayer activates, water is observed leaking significantly from the lower end connections and the prime tube. He attempts to tighten the connections to no avail, becoming visibly frustrated. The presenter stresses the importance of performing such tests with water prior to using actual paint, to prevent costly and messy complications from a defective unit.

Goal: The presenter attempts to prime the sprayer with water, but immediately encounters leaks from the lower end and prime tube connections, indicating a manufacturing defect.
