Does this work for latex paint?

I personally use it for acrylic paint, but I would think it would also for latex. On the package it says for oils, acrylic and watercolors.

You certainly can. Just make sure you use the proper tip and filter. Also make sure, if you have ever used the sprayer for latex, you clean it extremely well with water, pump the water out of the system, then flush the entire system with laquer thinner. Otherwise the laquer thinner will turn any residual latex into a gummy sludge. The best bet is to have seperate sprayers for latex and laquer, or at the least change hoses between.

Ken, We think so but it will depend on how thick the latex paint is. Also we are not sure if it will dry in the tubing or not. Let us know how it works out. Regards. Grey Beard.

It works well on pure silicone. It might work on some silicone blends, but probably not nearly as well. A lot of exterior/interior house caulking are acrylic base and I don't think this would be the product for those types. I think the "big box" lumber stores have a remover for acrylic latex caulk .

Yes, I was able to spray latex paint straight from the can with no thinning. A light touch of the trigger is required, or you will wind up with too much paint on the object being painted.

I used it on oil painting and it worked for me. I would say make sure you mix the solution before use and first try it in a small area and wait for it to get dry and see the result before applying a large surface.

I have used this product to remove many types of stains from grease to ink, however, I have not used it for paint. Sorry I could not be of help.

yes! That's exactly what I use them for-plus latex paint! If the transparent cap isn't air tight enough for ya, there is a cardboard seal that comes in each nozzle.

Yes, it would - for paint. That's all I can attest to. Just use a cardboard or something similar to work out how much spray is coming out before you start so you're happy with the spray pattern.

I have not used it with model paints but I belive it would. I have used it with enamel paints, acrylic paint, and food coloring. They all worked well.

No not if you wrap brush in plastic or tinfoil first. But even with latex paints the brushcover only lasts so long why we didn't order anymore just as easy to wrap a brush.

it might work / painted surface could be any formulation and this stuff will bond with latex acrylics best / go over surface with steel wool or scotch or sanding pad to get a fresh clean surface then coat with vermont stuff / 3 or more coats ,foam brush ,wipe on or spray ,fine scotch pad before final coat / good luck / what-a-ya got to lose ;Ron ps if it doesn't work try a light coat of shellac before the vermont

I think this would do great for just about any small to medium sized painting project. I'm no expert and I had great results spraying un-thinned latex paint on my furniture project. It made painting quick and easy.

NO, this is a one quart sprayer designed for light bodied finishes like lacquer. I use mine to spray cellulose nitrate lacquer to refinish antique radios. It isn't designed for heavy bodied latex paints.

This should work with paint, but the paint needs to be diluted. I used my to paint wood panelled walls with white latex paint and it worked wonderfully. It takes a few tries to figure out the best dilution. I also found that I needed to keep qtips handy to clean the nozzle every once in a while.

It will and does a good job. However, you have to "thin" the paint with water (almost double the amount recommended for an airless) and use a paint conditioner such as Floetrol. Additionally, you'll have to purchase the M-aircap Set #6 to spray latex.

Works well with latex/acrylic paints. Make sure the base coat is applied well and not to thin.
