By using a professional paint sprayer, you’ll save both time and money while getting a high-quality finish.
When using your Graco spray machines, choosing the right spray gun tip іs crucial. The tip size determines the width оf the sprayed material’s fan pattern, similar tо an umbrella.

Versatility
Both Graco and Titan tools offer an assortment of sprayer models designed to meet various real estate needs. Ranging from handheld furniture sprayers to airless contractor-specific units, there is something here for every scenario.
Graco Quickshot, for instance, is a battery-powered handheld sprayer that connects directly to the power source for your drill/driver and allows you to spray fine finish paints and coatings without cords or hoses.
Graco 395 is an ideal DIY machine, recommended to be used up to 50 gallons yearly for DIY projects. Featuring 0.65kw (0.8hp) motor power and fluid flow rate of 2 LPM per minute – its maximum tip size matches those found in Titan and Wagner models – as well as motor power of 0.65kW, its recommended maximum usage per year is 50.

Power
Graco has long been recognized for their excellence in designing and engineering sprayers, boasting top-tier designs backed up with extended warranty periods for each model.
Spray guns from Graco are also highly powerful; an efficient gun can paint 7-15 times faster than brushes and rollers and eliminate the hassle of setting up and cleaning after each project.
The Graco 395 stands as our most weighty model at 19 kg and should take more time than any of its counterparts to tire you out with its daily usage. Equipped with a 0.65kw or 0.8hp motor capable of pumping out 2 litres per minute and featuring an optional tip size of 23.

Warranty
Airless sprayers can be bulky pieces of equipment, particularly the more powerful models like the Graco 395 and Titan 440, but their warranties make them attractive options for professional painters, contractors, and DIYers.
The Titan 440 stands as one of the heaviest comparison sprayers and offers 0.65kw (0.8 hp) output with an impressive maximum paint flow rate of 2 litres per minute – giving it enough horsepower to out-compete Graco and Wagner models when spraying liquids such as stain, lacquer, enamels, latex and other low to medium viscosity coatings.
The Titan 440 comes with a 4-year warranty, which surpasses both 3- and 2-year guarantees from Graco and Wagner respectively. However, due to its increased weight and power requirements it may not be suitable for novice users.

Portability
An investment-grade paint spraying system should come from a renowned and established company with an outstanding warranty program, designed and constructed by highly trained staff members who offer technical support and expert design expertise.
The Graco 395 stands as our most heavyweight model by an impressive three kilograms. While that might not seem like much at first, over an entire day of spraying this can add up considerably.
Q-Tech weighs 16kgs, is powered by an 0.65kw or 0.8 HP motor and easily pumps out 2 litres per minute with its maximum tip size of 23. These specs make it comparable with Titan and Wagner models while providing similar power output and operating pressures.

Graco is the go-to paint sprayer manufacturer. Their wide selection of models caters to specific applications with warranties to back them up; perfect for property maintenance professionals, remodelers and general contractors that use paint sprayers regularly.
Selecting the proper Graco spray gun and tip will enable you to achieve professional-quality results in your application. Utilizing recommended tips will reduce overspray while simultaneously covering larger areas more quickly.
Titan sprayers offer several models that cater to various coating applications. Their X17 model works well for thin coatings like latex while their X19 and X21 models have larger orifice sizes to handle heavier textures like elastomerics coatings. Furthermore, the X17 boasts lower weight with high power-to-weight ratio but lacks many features found on higher end models.
