The Tool Furniture Painters CANNOT Live Without! (GIVEAWAY!)



I have been dying to share this post with you guys for weeks! Seriously!



When I was at at Haven this summer, I had the chance to meet a representative from Home Right. I had the chance to talk to her about the Finish Max Fine Finish Sprayer. A couple weeks later, I had a package sitting on my front step.


I fell in love at first spray! I'm not kidding, this paint gun is life changing! If you have plans to ever paint a piece of furniture, you need to get this gun.

I've tried it with latex as well as chalk paint. You do need to thin most paints before running them through, but that's easy to figure out. The gun comes with a viscosity tester and a chart.



The first project I tried it on was the yellow Mid-Century desk and chair. Perfectly smooth, even painting with NO brushstrokes.


It honestly took me 15 mins to spray the entire body, drawers, and chair. One of the nice things about spraying paint is how quickly each coat dries. I got 2 coats of paint and 2 coats of PolyAcrylic sprayed in an hour!

I will never brush a chair again!

I've used my pneumatic HVLP spray gun dozens of times, but the Finish Max leaves it in the dust. I was really surprised how powerful the motor is. I love the fact that I don't have to lug a compressor around! Its totally silent until you pull the trigger, and even then its maybe as loud as an electric sander.

Pros:


  • Even spray with great coverage.

  • Easy portability.

  • Adjustable spray pattern.

  • It has a flat bottom, so it stands up on its own. (SO convenient!)

  • No need for compressor.

  • Price. ($75.67 on Amazon)


Cons:


  • Not the easiest to clean. (but not much worse than most paint guns)

  • Can be a little heavy with a full cup of paint.



Honestly, it was a bit of a struggle coming up with the cons. I haven't been so happy with a product in a LONG time.

Yes, I received the Finish Max from Home Right in exchange for this post, but I would have happily written one anyways. When I discover an awesome product, I feel like I have to share it with you! All opinions are entirely my own. Please, feel free to ask any questions you may have about my experience with the Finish Max!
