Haven't tried it but believe it can could spray most anything. I bought it to spray heavy coatings like latex on the cabinets I make, which it does a great job. I think the only problem you my have, which might not be a problem because I haven't tried thin coatings with this is that it really dumps the product. Again, it has an adjustment for spray volume so that might not be a problem. Just haven't played with it with thin products. Like the gun so far. For stain, which has to be rubbed out anyway, I like the cheap Harbor Freight HVLP gravity feed. Will amazon dare to print that. Good on them if they do.

I have used oil based paint, and cleaned immediately afterwards with mineral spirits. It can easily take a gallon of mineral spirits to thoroughly clean the gun. If you use something stronger than mineral spirits such as a brush cleaner, you may degrade the rubber seals in the sprayer. If you must switch your spray gun from water to oil and back again, that can be very difficult. After the oil, clean with mineral spirits until the gun sprays perfectly clear, and follow with a lot of warm water. Be sure to finish with Pump Armor.

So far only used this product to remove argan oil stain from granite. Good luck.

Well, on the bottle it says "Cleans & Conditions, Softens, Resists Soiling, Buffs, Retards Waterspotting, Protects Against Sun, Safe for Leather & Vinyl". So...with that being said I would think that maybe it would help clean the oil stain but I'm not 100% sure. I might be worth a try.

You can use stain, but it has to be cleaned as any solvent based sprayer. These are normally used for laytexez, but enamels are not a problem. Check the Titan web site. It's full of information too.

Hi "I", Your question led my imagination to imagine you are cooking in a camp located in Canada or Alaska and I am so JEALOUS!!!I have to be honest and say I have not come across your particular stain. So I may not be the best expert on this one. I would advise you however to try the Carbona #5 Which does a great job on fats and cooking oils... I come to this conclusion based on the fact that the build up on the pans begins with oil and the flames burn the oil on. I have had great results with the number 5 also, the number 7 might be of help to you, it is designed for things like motor oil and lubricants refined versions of "oil". I am thinking your Chef's Jacket is the standard polyester/cotton and not nylon. I will also tell you that I have had dry good results from using Dawn dishwashing detergent and and oxygen based cleaner (like oxi-clean) A neighbor had a blouse (100% cotton) that was nearly ruined from being in a house fire (smoke is considered carbon) we pre soaked it in a mixture of dawn and oxi-clean then washed it -the blouse was saved. Hope this helps you, I know uniforms are so expensive to replace. Paula

I have mixed just enough drops of the Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil with Argan Oil to the point of a slightly orange color resulting. It can be mixed to whatever concentration you desire, but the Sea Buckthorn Berry Oil will stain clothing... or bedding. I use it chiefly during daytime on skin not touching any fabric. In the summertime it has been beneficial in helping prevent sunburn (I have lighter skin), and it gives the appearance of being lightly tanned. Hope that helps.

To sound like a commercial .... I would try it on a small area first. This is an oil, and this one does have a hint of color. I have white counters in my kitchen and if I drop a few by accident I notice the color. I always clean up quickly. I'm afraid to tell you go ahead and it stain your furniture!! Great idea. Just be careful.

It depends on the stain. I use bleach if it is real bad and it is a food stain.

I have used oil based paint and it worked great. Make sure you clean it well afterwords.

This sprayer has Viton seals which lend itself to hydrocarbon compatibility. Oil based stains would generally fall into this category. However, I have to agree with another person who responded to your question. This use will really be a mess to clean up and would probably cause you to dedicate the sprayer to the "oil" use. If you have a lot of fence to treat, dedicating the sprayer to oil use may not be a bad idea.

I haven't used my sprayer yet, but my intention is to use stain. I suppose the manufacturer's website would be a good resource, or inquire at HD or Lowes. Your question has made me interested in finding out as well.

It should be able to handle oil-based stain, properly thinned per directions with the stain. I would not attempt to use latex paint with this gun.

I have not tried using deck stain with this product. But as my experience there should be no problem doing so. Just make sure you have a cleaning agent after you complete staining your deck. Deck stains are not water based.

Yes, it worked for an oil based stain. Although the cleanup took a little bit of effort.

Have not tried it for that. My guess is that it probably won't. We use it mostly for oil and grease stains and other similar things. Maybe "Goof off" or lighter fluid will work.

I don't think you can get rid of the dark stain because it has penetrated the wood and not just on the surface. The mystery oil is what You needed to use the oil when your block was new so as to prevent your problem. However, use the oil to prevent further damage as it lubricates the wood and also cleans it. I use my oil quite often and my block looks good! I think your stain is there to stay!

I think so, and there are several sizes you can choose from. I have not tried to use them with "liquid" ingredients, only dry, so don't know if they will stain
