Chapin Heavy Duty Sprayer

thanks

I have purchased from you the clean and brightener kits and TWP 100. I will be ready to start this project soon, my pressure washer just arrived. I bought a $30 manual sprayer, a "professional" grade at home depot recently but I am wondering if this will produce a quality looking stain and finish, given I follow your spraying directions well.

Or would a stain pad, roller or brush be better or electric sprayer for this size project? If you think an electric sprayer would be best do you have a recommendation for one? Or would hiring a professional be better? I am very handy, can manage this myself with help if I can make it look good without hiring a professional.

The fence is 160 ft and the deck is 12x13 deck all made of Alaskan Yellow Cedar decking boards.

Thank you for your recommendation.

Deb

It will spray transparent and semi-transparent oil stains. It will not spray solid stains. It is a very good. high quality sprayer.

I want to spray a 800 sq, ft. deck with oil based stain, will this sprayer handle the job? If not can you reccomend one that will? I\'ll be treating pressured treated wood.

what is the maintenance of this chapin sprayer. how is it cleaned after spraying on superseal 25?(or should i just be using a roller?)
