Paint Sprayers (again)... compressor kit or wagner...
Discussion
Sorry, I know this has been done a couple of times. couldn't quite find what I was looking for on the other threads, other than "dont buy a cheap one" which is fine!
Absolutely must have a sprayer, no way I'm painting inside of a double garage by hand!
Needs to do a coat of dilute PVA first, then a few coats of paint.
Hiring would seem like a good idea, airless system would cost £200 for 2 days, god forbid I overrun it gets expensive.
However can buy one of these for £250-ish..

Looks fancy...
Or, get a compressor and some cheap gravity fed spray guns? If so, any hints on what compressor and guns? I think I like this option the best as I can get some air tools for bits and bobs in the garage at a later date.
Cheers

Pva is a cheap attempt to stabilise the mortar, it's a bit crumbly.
I looked at "proper" stabilising solutions, £50 a litre put me right off.
From what I read it should work ok.
However if you're saying just give em a brush down and a thin first coat of paint that's cool. Less faffing around!
It's bare brick on the inside of a double garage, hence wanting to spray as my rough maths makes it about seven acres which I don't want to do with a roller!

It'll paint a garage with ease. Paint will need thinning to get a flat finish though.
Well, if you reckon they are good then I can get one of them AND a cheap compressor with a gravity fed sprayer and some other cheapo tools all in budget! Winner! It'll paint a garage with ease. Paint will need thinning to get a flat finish though.
