Airless sprayer recommendations for home DIY painting?
Thinking of getting an airless spray gun to speed up painting the exterior of the house and some interior walls/ceilings. Last time with a roller it took forever. What entry-level or mid-range sprayers do people use that don’t clog easily and give a decent finish without too much overspray? Any brands that handle Irish weather paints well? Tips appreciated!

Airless sprayers cut time massively for big jobs, but cheap ones clog or spit. For home use, something with adjustable pressure and a decent tip size (like 515 or 517) works for most emulsions and masonry paints. I rented one first, then bought a mid-range electric model – it handled thick exterior paint fine with minimal thinning. Cleanup is key though.
Paintlab has a good selection of spraying machines: https://www.paintlab.ie/collections/spraying-machines
Graco or Wagner types are reliable for DIY. Start with a smaller project to get the hang of it. Anyone using one regularly?
