I am planning to use this with oil based varnish (polyurethane), do I need to filter first?

I use this for polyurethane all the time. I get women's knee high stockings and stretch them over the mouth of the cup before I pour the finish in. Works great

Sorry to say, I have had nothing but trouble with this model.It clogged no matter what I feed through it. I wasted time and paint.It's cheaper, in the log run, to get a better quality sprayer.

It will spray anything that is thinned to the proper consistency for spraying. Most polyurethane water-based varnishes are sold with a consistency good for brushing, not spraying. You will probably have to thin the varnish with water or alcohol to a spraying consistency.

I have a sand filter and there is a screen it passes through before the filter. If you are set up similar to mine, Yes you can just utilize the one before the filter. Hope that helps.

I have a filter attached to my compressor, and I either use my hose that I have an oiler attached before the quick release, or if I am using a standard hose, I will put a drop or two of oil into the gun before using.

Is it really necessary to use any kind of cleaning oil or cleaning sheets..

No. Filter is already oiled by manufacturer. You will need to purchase a re-oil kit for maintaing filter quality.

Hi Tony, this is a water based preservative application for new wood. The previous oil products would prevent uses of Valhalla as we know it.

slight varnish. However it doesn't interfere with any application. I've done the same as what you are wanting to do with good results.

Yes, after you clean it you place a small amount of spray can oil on the filter

Here are th instructions on the label: "Specifically formulated to clean all types of unwaxed, residential and commercial polyurethane finished wood floors. Quickly wipe out red wine, dried spaghetti sauce, mustard, ketchup, and heel scuffs. Unlike all-purpose cleaners, this cleaner will not dull your floor finish or leave an oily residue. A waterborne, non-toxic, environmentally responsible cleaner." I believe you will be pleased with this product on your floors. It has worked extremely well on my hardwood floors. Hope this helps.

I am not sure - I am using a basic oil based minwax finish on my outdoor project and the result is beautiful!! I did find a website that addresses the diffrent types/uses of finishes based on product content; indoor vs. outdoor. Maybe the site can help - Good luck with your project, here is the site address. http://www.thewoodwhisperer.com/articles/difference-between-spar-varnish-and-regular-varnish/

just adding my 2¢ here, it does need to be melted and filtered before use in products.

You definitely need to oil it well before use! I let the oil sink in on all sides overnight before wiping and use.

Depends on the brand and filter setup. Generally, it's best to use a diffuser for essential oils though.
