2Will work you to death or, Free workoutSep 03, 2008
By No GI Jane
It should be noted that I consider myself handy and have done several home projects and have had good results without knowing what I was doing and that I am normally physically capable.

After reading the previous reviews I was encouraged to purchase the sprayer. I played with the mixture's consistency and practiced spraying most of the morning and then tackled a small closet that included the ceiling.

It was messier than I expected with not just pieces hitting the floor but gobs oozing out of the nozzle and onto the trigger. (The instructions mention that some water may leak out of this area.) If you are an Amazon lady or trained with the military and are used to holding an AK-47 or lift weights on a daily basis you should be fine pulling and holding the trigger and holding up the sprayer to get the coverage you want. (I had to use two hands at times to keep the trigger fully pulled.) I only finished because it became personal after the first hour. I was trying to get the pattern that would match my existing texture so maybe I was expecting a little too much. (Professional texture man is scheduled to arrive in a few days.) I will still use the machine to texture the walls in the garage but I was not able to get the design I wanted for the house. I am good about reading and following directions so I do not think I could improve upon the performance except with maybe more target practice. I did find that clean-up was not bad at all.

NOTE-----Updating you on my 2 star review. The professional painter/texture man showed up and guess what he was using? Yep, the same Wagner machine! He has had it a long time and swears by it. He complimented me on my closet and said that he had to go through the same trial and error but the main tip he gave was very thin mud. I watched and it was very runny. The instructions state "like pancake batter" but his was VERY THIN. Can't stress that enough. Still was messy on application but not like when I used it and it will not work you as hard since you will not have the mixture so thick. So, based on everything he said and the fact that he no longer uses the bigger machines and his Wagner had tape all over it from obvious hard use, I am upgrading it to 4 stars and withholding the one star for when I attempt the garage. Hope this helps!

5If you're thinking about buying it, DO IT!Feb 24, 2008
By E. Rodriguez
My wife and I just purchased our first home and she really dislikes popcorn ceilings. So she insisted that we have it removed and put up a knockdown texture in it's place. Then after a few estimates, the cheapest we could get it done to our whole house was for a little under $3000 which was more that what we were willing to spend with all the other things that we needed to have done to the house. So I priced out all the materials needed and my estimate came in at about $900. Keep in mind that this price is also including the cost of the tools needed (ex. 1/2" drill, trowel, paint primer, sprayer, ect.) which I didn't own.

Anyway, after going to my local Home Depot, they wanted about $60 a day to rent a sprayer and since I wanted to take my time, this really wasn't an option. I know that Wagner states that this sprayer is really for touch up jobs and not exactly for doing a whole house but let me tell you, I did my whole house and it worked great. After practicing a bit in the rooms first, my results were identical to a professional job at 1/3 the price. I will tell you this, it is a lot of work and the hardest thing about it is removing the popcorn and preping the room. I know some people say to use a garden sprayer and then they sell this neat little scraper at Home Depot that you can attach a bag to so you don't make a mess but that scrapper is junk. If you want to move fast, tape up the walls and floor using plastic sheeting and use a garden hose with a 10 or 12 inch taping knife to remove the popcorn. You'll barely scratch the sheet rock underneath and you'll remove the popcorn in under 30 minutes per room. The whole process is truly a huge mess but the end result is a very nice looking textured wall. I decided to go with the medium nozzle (yellow) and I ended up with a very nice looking texture that isn't as bold and some of the houses I've seen.

So if you're in the same situation my wife and me were in and you're fairly competent with tools, you'll be able to do the same thing because I'm a complete novice when it comes to drywall textures and I ended up with a great looking house. I'll also be honest and tell you that the first room I did, didn't come out as nice as the last but not because I applied the texture incorrectly but because I knocked some of it down too soon. Make sure you wait at least 20 minutes before knocking it down and after you spray a wall, take a step back and if you see any bare placed, just go over it with a quick trigger pull and you'll be amazed at what you're left with.

I am rehabing a home in Tampa, florida, and tried with mixed results to use the spray texture cans from Home Depot . six cans with six different poor results. I purchased this sprayer, shot an entire bathroom with AWSOME results. I LOVE IT. Buy one

5SweetNov 29, 2007
By A. Flyberg
Im a professional drywall finisher of over 10 years, and think this thing is great. No more hauling in a heavy texture rig and dirty hose for patch jobs. For the do-it-yourselfer $100 it isn't much more than a regular hopper and gun that requires a compressor. Great price for a sweet sprayer.

5Great tool at any price.Jan 29, 2008
By Jack Hanson "Jack"
This is a good-value tool. I am a handy-man. I have rented professional rigs and thought I would try this cheap tool for a small repair job. It works and it works well. The instructions say to mix the plaster to a pancake like consistency. Experiment with your own, but I found a "thin" pancake mixture to work better. Clean-up takes about 3 minutes. Compared to the rental cost of a professional rig, it paid for itself in one day. I will now use it for larger jobs.
