Dont buy it, it failed after an hour of use. An oring broke on the attachment to the Pump well, so it stopped sucking paint.I went to home depot to get a replacement. Still does not suck paint. 90 day waranty is up, cant find local repair. Waste of money

Absolutly! This little spray can use either 1 or 5 gal buckets. I did my entire basement with two 5gal buckets. I found teh overall functionality with the 5 gal to be a bit more cumbersome. My advice...have a plan for spraying the surface area defined before you begin, it wil help minimize the movement of the sprayer with the bucket.

Wagner says yes! I found using the one gal cans more convenient for moving the rig around as I sprayed, since the paint can handle clips onto the side. The 5 gal bucket may be a little more awkward than gal cans but should work fine.

Yes. You can hang a 1 gallon from the handle or sit a 5 gallon on the floor next to it.

It sucked paint from three different 5 gallon buckets for me;). Very easy to use and easy to clean!

Yes it will. I just placed it on top of the 5 gal. bucket and let it do its job.

I'll be honest, this unit conked out in a matter of weeks - I wouldn't use it at all. It's also big, I think it would take up a lot of room in a five-gallon bucket, and not leave room for much else. Just my thoughts.

I'm sure they would, I used mine on 5 gal buckets from Lowes and they are about the same thickness.

Paint is held in its original can. U put the u shaped hose into the can and it sucks it up. U can even use a 5 gallon bucket.

I sealed a five gallon tank and didnt even use an eighth of the pint once the excess was all drained. Hope this gives you an idea of how much you'll need for you're project.

yes, the diameter of a 5 gallon bucket is 12 inches, this unit has a diameter of 10.5 inches

As long as the paint reservoir tube can suck paint. Youll have to turn the paint reservoir in a way that gravity wont affect the way paint is sucked up into the sprayer. So if u do this it should work.

I've always used a 5 gallon bucket, line with garbage bag and it goes in the garbage can.

Suction hose pulls straight out a gallon can or 5 gallon can... Paint gun works great!!!

I used it in a 5-gallon paint bucket. Perfect fit. Drill holes on the bottom and sides of the bucket surround with gravel and place in the pit.

This is the best little tool on the market. Yes, it will suck up any amount of water. 1000 gallon an hour.

I would think so, once the suction starts, it can even suck up small rocks. But, if you just let the water/sand mixture drain into a bucket, you could just rinse it off and put it back in your tank.

Not real sure, but might be able to attach a tub to the metal tub going into canister and running tub into a hole in top lid of 5 gallon bucket lid. I think it's like pressure fed.

That depends on the height of your jug. There is about an inch of space below our pump in our 5-gallon jug.
