Answer This Question
A: Hi Nelson,
Airless sprayers, in general, will use more paint when compared to brushing or rolling. You'll more than make up this loss in time saved though. If you have any additional questions please feel free to give us a call at 844-241-9499.

A: Hi Dave,
Likely wouldn't be an issue as the product isn't flammable. You'll likely be using a .011-.013 tip but I'd recommend contacting the manufacturer of the material to be sure. If you have any additional questions please feel free to give us a call at 844-241-9499.

Q:Looking at painting my basement ceiling using dry fall black paint. Can I use this for that job and what tips would I need? Thanks

Answer This Question
A: Hi Dman,
The X5 would not be the sprayer to use to apply a Dryfal coating. It would require a much larger contractor grade sprayer.

Q:I am using this sprayer to complete an exterior deck project (30x25?). Applying the primer was no issues, and the final finish is a Sherwin-Williams deck stain (solid color). Can this sprayer apply a textured finish?
by|Sep 5, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A: Hi Tony,
No, the Magnum line of products is not capable of spraying a textured finish. As for the solid color stain, if we're talking about SW SuperDeck SD7-150 Series, it should be feasible to spray with the Magnum X5. We'd recommend straining the stain with a paint strainer a few times before spraying. This will help reduce the chances of your tip clogging as your spraying.
If you have any additional questions please feel free to give us a call at 844-241-9499.
