Trouble Shooting Airless Paint Sprayers

What happens here

With the sprayer fully reassembled and lubricated, it is placed back into the paint bucket. The power is turned on to test if the priming issue has been resolved. The sprayer immediately begins to prime, with paint flowing consistently and strongly from the prime tube, confirming that cleaning the ball valve was the correct solution and the sprayer is now functioning as expected. The presenter gives a final recommendation to get back to work and 'make some money', highlighting the efficiency gained from resolving the issue.

Goal: Confirm successful repair and functional priming of the sprayer.

Tools and materials

  • Airless Sprayer — The fully reassembled and tested equipment
  • Paint Bucket — Container for paint during priming

starting to come off we didn't have that happen one time where I think we spent two hours trying to get a pump to work because it kept breaking off little pieces up into that ball valve and we have to keep clearing it out at that point it might be time to switch over to a different pump or replace that siphon valve but usually your your local paint stores will carry extra parts for things like that in that that's an issue you'll run into on what I notice is if you're crossed using products from water-based products to like lacquer based products or oil based products you're gonna run into issues like that and that's why we never use a lacquer base prog lager based pump or lacquer based product with an oil-based product or a water-based product down the road down we have separate pumps for each one of those things so you can do it but you could run into problems down the road if this this didn't fix the situation another thing we're gonna probably maybe jump down to is look and pop in the prime valve off and looking at that but that would be another video another series because it's that's not very common with newer sprayers I mean if this sprayer was you know tenure or five years old or more we might start running and do issues like back as a lot more stuff tiny little things might get through the hose get through the piston then they get stuck in that valve and usually with something like that it won't lose its prime what you'll have a hard time doing is getting it to prime and so usually you can kind of finagle it a little bit and get it so that it does catch a prime and hold pressure but if it just won't hold pressure at all usually it has to do with that little ball valve down there so we'll come out with another video here in the near future working on that prime valve hopefully you've enjoyed this video hopefully it's gonna help you get up and running fast and start making money again okay let's go
