Tried a cheap paint sprayer vs a professional one on my kitchen cabinets, huge difference in results
I spent last weekend painting my kitchen cabinets in Austin (ikea ones, nothing fancy). Picked up a $40 Wagner sprayer from Home Depot to save some cash. What a mess. Splatters everywhere, uneven coat, and I spent more time cleaning it than actually painting. Borrowed my neighbor's Graco (he's a pro painter) for the second coat. Night and day. The finish is smooth, no drips, and it took half the time. Has anyone else had this experience with budget vs pro sprayers? What brand did you end up sticking with?

Remember to strain the paint before pouring it in, that alone fixes most of the splatters on cheap sprayers.
