FAQs
What types of paint can I use with the VonHaus 800W Paint Sprayer?
You can use both water-based and thicker oil-based paints. It's crucial that the paint's viscosity does not exceed 120 Din-s. Always use the included measuring cup to test your paint before use.
How do I measure paint viscosity?
Use the viscosity measuring cup provided. Fill it with your paint and time how long it takes for the paint to completely flow out. Refer to your paint's instructions and the sprayer manual for the recommended flow time, ensuring it's within the 120 Din-s limit.
What is the capacity of the paint cup?
The VonHaus 800W Paint Sprayer comes with a large 1300ml capacity paint cup, allowing you to cover significant areas without frequent refills.
How do I change the spray pattern?
The sprayer allows you to easily change the nozzle attachment or adjust the gun to achieve horizontal, vertical, or circular spray patterns. Consult your manual for specific instructions on adjusting the spray pattern.
Is cleaning difficult?
No, the sprayer is designed for easy post-decorating clean-up. It includes a pipe cleaner brush and a pipe cleaner pin to help you thoroughly clean the components and prevent blockages. Prompt cleaning after each use is essential.
Can I use this for outdoor projects like fences?
Yes, absolutely. Its powerful motor, high flow rate, and large paint cup make it ideal for various indoor and outdoor jobs, including acting as a garden fence paint sprayer.
What accessories are included with the sprayer?
The sprayer comes with a viscosity measuring cup, a spare O-ring, five paint filters, a pipe cleaner brush, and a pipe cleaner pin to assist with maintenance.
Troubleshooting
Uneven spray pattern or sputtering paint
Check paint viscosity: Ensure the paint is thinned correctly using the viscosity cup (up to 120 Din-s). Incorrect viscosity is a common cause. Also, clean the nozzle and spray tip thoroughly with the included cleaning tools, as dried paint can cause blockages. Check for any air leaks in the system.
No paint or very little paint coming out
Verify the paint cup is sufficiently full and securely attached. Confirm the nozzle and air cap are clean and free of clogs. Check the hose for kinks or blockages. Ensure the pressure setting is adequate for the paint type being used.
Paint leaking from the spray gun or connections
Inspect all connections, including the paint cup, hose, and nozzle assembly, to ensure they are tightened properly. Check the O-ring for any damage or wear; replace it with the spare O-ring if necessary. Make sure the paint cup is not overfilled.
Motor runs but no spray
Ensure the suction tube is fully submerged in the paint and not drawing air. Check that the hose is properly connected and not blocked. Disassemble and clean the spray gun components, especially the intake valve and nozzle, to rule out blockages.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Assembly: Ensure all components are securely attached according to the user manual. This typically involves connecting the hose, spray gun, and paint cup.
- Paint Preparation: Measure your paint's viscosity using the supplied viscosity cup. Fill the cup and time how long it takes for the liquid to run out. Compare this to the paint manufacturer's recommendation or the sprayer's guidelines (up to 120 Din-s). Thin the paint if necessary until the correct viscosity is achieved.
- Fill Paint Cup: Carefully pour the prepared paint into the 1300ml paint cup and securely reattach it to the spray gun.
- Connect Power: Plug the 2m power cable into a suitable outlet. Ensure the 1.8m hose is securely connected between the motor unit and the spray gun.
- Test Spray: Before painting your project, always perform a test spray on a piece of scrap material to adjust pressure and spray pattern as needed.
Compatibility
- Paint Types: Compatible with both water-based paints and thicker oil-based paints.
- Viscosity: Works with paints up to 120 Din-s viscosity. Always check the paint manufacturer's specifications and test with the included viscosity cup.
- Surfaces: Suitable for various indoor and outdoor surfaces, including furniture, walls, fences, and sheds.
Care & Maintenance
Proper cleaning is essential for the longevity and performance of your paint sprayer.
- Immediate Cleaning: As soon as you finish painting, empty any remaining paint from the cup.
- Flush System: Fill the paint cup with an appropriate cleaning solution (water for water-based paints, mineral spirits/paint thinner for oil-based paints). Spray the solution through the gun until it runs clear.
- Detailed Cleaning: Use the included pipe cleaner brush and pipe cleaner pin to thoroughly clean the nozzle, spray tip, and other accessible parts of the spray gun and hose to remove any paint residue.
- Nozzle Maintenance: Inspect the nozzle and O-ring. Replace the O-ring with the spare provided if it shows signs of wear or damage.
