earlex-5500-polyurethane Clearly Earlex 5500 polyurethane you're not spraying spraying dulux satinwood as splutters would be everywhere. The gun is a bleeder gun, so the air earlex 5500 polyurethane always "on" and spraying though the gun. Quote from: Wuffles on November 24,PM. The onboard cord storage is near useless, so I also avoid using it. I do use an extension cord every time I spray. When you thin the paint it is important to stir slowly so as not to introduce air bubbles but also stir well enough that it is mixed correctly.

If you have recently cleaned it, check the nozzle, tip and needle etc. Oakville Cabinetry on Instagram. Sven Posts: I have the Earlex myself and have not had any issues similar to that. I'd suggest a complete disassembly, cleaning and rebuild. Nozzle tips and needles are matched pairs 1. Are you adjusting the flow to see if you can get more liquid out?? If you rotate the spray nozzle 90 degrees move the spray from a vertical fan to a horizontal fan and spray, do you still get the same splatter pattern?

If you follow the videos step by step I'm sure with a little practice you will be ok. Let us know how you get on. One more thing I always use a paint filter when pouring paint into the gun paint can. They are cheap to buy but worth using as they capture any debris or thickened paint that you don't want going through the paint gun and blocking the nozzle.

I buy the paint filters from Ebay. Hi Thanks for the advice. I clean the gun throughly after every use with the last gun i'm sure my efforts of soaking the gun in thinners for 3 days is what damaged a seal or something somewhere haha. Am pretty sure the needles and cap are all correctly in place. By cap you mean the attachment that the needle goes into? Thanks for the video links, i must have watched these in the past 6 months and have done everything that they suggest. However i just can't seem to sort the issue.

Tool list updated to reflect knowledge :: hammer, screwdriver, one pozi bit, and another bigger hammer. SMJoinery Posts: You shouldn't have a problem spraying this product providing it's diluted.

We use a similar Johnston and Leyland product with no issues. Using yhe viscosity cup that comes with the count sec until flow stops. The cleaning with spirits etc may be the problem as there are several sealed greased areas internally that I believe degrade with this type of fluid.

Over and above the petroleum lubrication that comes with the gun. Please also check that the syphon tube isn't blocked or leaking. Using my gun this weekend I had spits of paint appearing which turned out to be a loose jet nozzle, quick tighten and it was good again. That and make sure little white washer on nozzle thread is ok.

Good luck. Quote from: Wuffles on November 24, , PM. Shane Holland Festool Dealer Posts: I've sprayed latex through my Earlex mixed with Floetrol, no issues. For what it's worth. Maybe an issue with your gun Thanks for them sheets never seen that. When spraying the johnstones with my compressor it sprays lovely however. Just can't use it anymore with the mist you get. The gun storage is handy, and I really like it. It prevents the gun from tipping over, and I use it all the time.

One thing I do not at all is the air intake position under the unit. It draws air from under the turbine, and can suck up a lot of dust and debris from a typical Earlex Modelo 5500 shop floor, or from a Earlex Hvlp Turbine 5500 System Review driveway if you spray outdoors. I use a piece of hardboard under the unit when I spray to avoid sucking up nasty stuff into the turbine. I only spray water based poly with this unit. I typically use general high performace poly, and have sprayed various furniture pieces with the Earlex book cases, frames, tables,etc.

OveralI I am impressed with the results from this machine. I am very happy with the quality finish this machine is capable of. There is a lot to like about this unit. The price point is great, and the finished results it is capable of are impressive.

Adjustments to flow rate are simple and predicable. There are also some things that could use improvement. I am not a fan of the hose, and I always need to be mindful of it so I dont crush it.

The air intake is not in a good place, and care must be taken when placing the machine. It is powerful enough for my intended use water based poly but may lack power for spraying other topcoats like paint. Overall a great value for the price - the results are great. This machine is capable of laying down a clean, even finish. I own once of these as well an I disagree on the hose and cord storage but, that can be as much opinion as anything.

I should have mentioned the power cord. I do use an extension cord every time I spray. Good catch! Great review Pug. I also own the same Earlex and also bought the 1. I know what you mean about Earlex Spray Station 5500 App cord storage and also wish it was longer. I have a similar problem with the hose storage. When completely wrapped up I use a piece of string just to tie the end to the previous wrap to keep it neat. When not being used I also store it on a shelf in its original box.

I put mine on a chair or bench to raise the unit off the floor to minimize the possibility of ingesting crap from the floor. I think I'll just put it on a piece of hardboard or cardboard from now on. Obvious when you point it out. These are only very minor issues considering its price point and relatively good quality of results. I'm also very happy with it. Yeah, the hose can be a pain in the butt and is prone to popping out suddenly if it gets loose in the slot.

Agreed that the cord should be longer, I also always need an extension cord for it.
