Which sprayer?
« on: March 16, 2013, 04:13:12 pm »
Which sprayer to you guys use to spray hypo at ground level?
I want one with a decent flow rate.

Has anyone run hypo through a WCW backpack? If so, will it damage it?

Is that all? ???
£300 is a bit steep isn't it,  I would want it to do all the work for that too.

I have a gloria which I use for carpets and pest control but they are expensive. I have a solo as well which for £68 from costco is good value

I have had my Gloria for about 5/6 years so now it is cheap. You can keep them going forever all the parts being easily available. It is a big expense but  i think worth it ...and i am as tight as a camels arse in a sandstorm.

Can you put a link to the Gloria model you guys use please.
Does it have a good flow rate, and on a fan?

I use my Gloria for applying detergents,weedkiller,moss killer,paint stripper,acrylic resin,bleach,teflon,xylene,graffiti remover...just make sure its cleaned out properly. You get straps with the sprayer that make it into a back pack sprayer as well as a hand held.
I  do also like Lee like the "bucket"   I have about 3/4 buckets and brushes in the van as well, as they are indispensable and cheap.....used in conjunction with a bin bag and baby wipes they are a life saver!
If it's a small job and i cant be bothered cleaning out the sprayer i just mix a "bucket" full and apply that way.
Saying that tho' i would be lost without the Gloria so much quicker.

Gets the last of the remaining sealer of driveways if they need stripping.
A kind of "finishing" stripper.
