fence and shed painting
 
hi all i need to paint/ treat alot of fence panels and a large shed are
there and paint sprayers out there to buy that will do the job quickly
looking to spend around £60.

£25 used it once the whole thing vibrates and now has stopped working so im
looking for something more substantational

Thought they were meant to vibrate? Mine certainly does.

Try it again - what you've got is always going to be cheaper than buying
something else.

Plan B: (if yours doesn't work) Buy a new one from Homebase and make sure
you clean it thoroughly between applying treatments if the job goes over
more than one day.

Jon,
I bought one of those cheap sprayers a few years ago, you have to
clean the spray nozzle and also apply a little oil to the mechanism to keep
it working.
The problem with fence paint is that the thickness can be inconsistent
enough to cause the sprayer nozzle to clog often.
A few years ago, I bought some fence paint which claimed to be suitable for
spraying, but now the exact same make just says suitable for brush or
roller!
I checked some other brands, and they don't mention spraying either , one
expensive brand specifically advised against it due to it containing wax.
