yes is the simple answer. you will have a much more difficult cleaning process but the equipment is capable of handling any paints. The owners manual gives cleaning procedures for all types of paints.

Yes. But you MUST follow the directions for cleaning afterwards. LOTS of water thru the unit, use the solution that comes with it and remove and clean every part that is removable and clean those as well. This sprayer is a great time saver and will last and last if cared for properly. Any paint left will dry up, become impossible to clean and you will have ruined it. We have even used deck stain. Can't say it enough - clean clean clean.And as another person said - proper tip. Also very powerful sprayer so use caution as it can literally slice through skin.

Yes you can, but sparingly. The oil is quite thick and heavy so a tiny bit goes a long way.

it already has a redwood stain on it, so unless you want to re-sand it I would say no. you might be able to paint it but you'll have to experiment with different oil bases to see what would stick.

You can paint anything. But, the material is like a hard plastic and I think you would have to sand it to make the paint adhere well.

Yes you can however make sure to sand and clean the frame first..... And spray approximately no closer than 6 inches away to prevent the paint from running. This spray paint is one o the best I have used.... Great for stuff around the house and other stuff. I will upload some photos in the next couple of days.

Sure, why not. The finish is not gloss so you might be able to find a paint that you can use without sanding it. However the best way would be do a light sand, paint with primer and then apply the finish coat.

I honestly do not know about paint. It is slightly abrasive so I doubt it. Good luck on your search.

It is cast iron, so you should be able to, but it will most likely ruin the paint where the flame touches it.

Yes. I did using FolkArt brand paint (not the outdoor kind because it's too watery) and coating it with Krylon sealer. Looks amazing.

Yes you can paint marine tex once it is completly cured. Just sand it to fair it out and paint away.

you do not use this on anything painted. the oil needs to penetrate into the wood grain, so stained wood can be oiled or raw wood after sanding, but paint, and wood sealers will not let the oil work

You can write on it with pencil but it should only be applied over a thoroughly dry paint. Preferably water based. Charcoal works better. Or a soft pencil. You may need a few coats to keep pencil from breaking through surface and hitting the paint.

No u can use oilbased, but it'll take way to much mineral spirits to clean the machine. I don't use oilbased paints in mine.

You can paint almost anything with this. But painting a house would take a very long time (an average size house) considering it only has a one quart cup, it won't be the most efficient way to go ( unless you have loads of time and patience, and it's YOUR house). This unit is made for small to medium jobs. They're 2-5 gallon capacity airless paint sprayers available if you want to paint a house

This thing works great....used it inside though....outside should work good as well..keep it clean and keep on painting

I personaly don't use this paint. I bought this for an elderly client that I take care of. He uses it on wooded areas, paper and canvas. If your figures are going to be wooden I say this is the product for you but if you're trying to do glass or plastic. I don't think it'll be a good Idea.

I wouldn't think so. I have not done any spray painting so a Iam by no means an expert. I would think the key to even application of paint is constant pressure. This compressor cycles frequently to keep pressure in the tank. Note I am using for airing up automobile tires. Spray painting may draw less volume down and thus the compressor maybe fine depending on the air requirement of the paint spray gun.Good Luck
