Hi Karen,
Warm the Paint...
Also, as you may know, generally speaking, 'latex' is even
more insideously nasty for one's system than traditional Oil
Based Paints. Take care not to breathe it's odors or it's
atomised air-borne mists if spraying it.
If you can smell it at all, you are getting too much of it
in you.
VERY bad for 'babys' and Pregnant Women.
Very bad for Cats, Dogs, Birds (as are especially sensitive)
or anyone...

We've talked about it here, I bought it and love it. My
question is, has anyone used it to spray Latex paint? I am
trying to prime 6 chairs, had them stripped and sanded. The
paint store doesn't think it will handle it because you
can't thin it enough, however the box says it will spray
Latex paint, has anyone tried it?
Thanks,
Karin in rainy (we need it)

Hi
I am careful about certain tools and came home to find my son using
latex paint through the Harbor Freight sprayer on a sculpture. He was working
outside but I was horrified. He cleaned it immediately and thoroughly. Some
paints are best used in specific ways. It is possible but I would use the gun
for glazing and still pay attention to safety and ventilation precautions.
