Can you use it for house paint

Yes, just about any paint that you can think of can be put through this sprayer. The real real question is "should it be used for house painting." The answer is no and the reason is simple. Tp paint a house, you need a thicker coat of paint and a much larger reservoir than the single quart that this unit offers. This unit is excellent for jobs such as painting patio furniture, a child's wagon, etc. For a house you should look into an airless paint sprayer which pumps a thicker coat of paint through the paint nozzle (and with a wider spray pattern). Check out the following Amazon web page for various examples:

Yes. We used it for exterior house paint. And I think it would work just as well for interior.

If you are using it inside , I Do Not recommend it!!! We used Sherman Williams paint with primer with no thinning and it worked good but the over spray is terrible!! The snoozle where paint comes out will dry fast, need a wet cloth to wipe it and to cover while refilling

For home use and light hobby work, yes. I've used mine to paint trim work (baseboards, window trim etc.) with thinned enamel paint and to apply stain & poly finish on wood furniture I have made (T.V. cabinet, Medicine cabinet, ect.) If you plan to use your sprayer in a commercial setting (Multiple users, tossed in a job box at the end of a shift, etc.) you may want to try a turbine unit. For single users like myself I believe it is the best bang for your buck.

You can paint it, but it would void the warranty. As far as the type of paint to use I would contact a local paint store.

Yes u can. U used this for a mask and was using fabric paint paint underneath as the mask warmed the paint under neather would remain

I feel you are able to use this for face painting. However, as with most mannequins, you want to be knowledgeable if your paint so you don't permanently stain it.

I would say u could test it out on something like a piece of wood but this is fabric medium so the idea is to make the paint softer for fabrics. For a wash I believe u can use some water with paint.

It might- I used it on a cement statue with 3 layers of old paint and it worked VERY well (even in the crevices). But it can get a little messy -had to take the statue outside to hose off the residue/paint mixture. So not sure how it would go inside the home- may need a way to rinse/clean up somehow

I have used it as a base for high temperature paint. Assuming you will be using a spray can to deliver the final coat, be sure to follow the dry time for best results.

I wouldn't try to. Can a paint nozzle be used with it? Also having an open paint container above the head could create some humorous situations.

I am not sure, I use it to treat the wood gun stock on M-1 Garand. The labels on the can do not discuss anything about painting. I hope that helps.

Only if you could thin it enough. I use to shoot enamels on scale model airplane and when they are too thick, I have to play with air pressure to compensate. The cleanup might be difficult. Though you can find replacent o-ring if the chemicals in the paint eat them up. Good luck.

Yes you can but I would return it if I were you. I purchased this product and it performed well when I first mixed it but could not go back and used the mixed paint later....it had turn almost solid and no amount of water softened it up.

We use it on many things including paper. It really depends on the paper, but you could always treat the paper prior to painting to avoid absorption.

You can do a lot with Paint Shop Pro - but I suggest you trial the product to ensure that it meets your needs. Here is the link to try out products from Corel: http://www.corel.com/corel/category.jsp?cat=cat4130083&rootCat;=cat3610091&storeKey;=us&languageCode;=en

Hi, As far as I know you can paint any clean surface with this paint. My son uses it for all his models plastic, metal, and wood. But always make sure first, try a spot inside or on the bottom before you start any project. Linda

Yes. That type of application is exactly what this paint is intended to be used for.Remember that the most important ingredient for a good result is to do proper prep work. i.e. Make sure you remove all loose paint (just as Marcus BIggins said) and sand all contact surfaces to provide a slightly rough surface to insure a good bond. Also, it wouldn't hurt to go over the surface with a soft rag dampened with paint thinner in order to make sure any surface oil (from cooking) is removed. Afterwards take care to properly dispose of the paint thinner soaked rag(s) because rags that have had paint thinner (or any oil) on them can self combust and start a fire in your house. Yes.
