Finding the right paint sprayer has always been a bit of a pain in the butt for me. I’ve told you all about my struggles trying to find my large paint sprayer, but at least the research I did on sprayers back then can help me in the future. It was so hard to find the information I was looking for, but now I feel much more prepared for my search.
I should also mention that I still love my Graco, and it’s still my go-to for big projects. It worked beautifully on my library wainscoting. I just also need a sprayer that’s going to be able to do the finer, finishing work for my smaller projects or areas.
How’s the Hose
As I said before, I really love my big sprayer. However, it’s got a really, really long hose that is just not a great choice for small projects. The hose eats up like a quart of paint before it even reaches the sprayer, plus it’s a little stiff and bulky. I had a little trouble maneuvering it when I was painting the walls and wainscoting, so imagine how hard it would be to manage when painting even smaller projects.
Know Your Knobs
When I made my paint sprayers post, I made sure to make it clear that 2 or more knobs meant do not buy. Tuning one meant the other one got out of place, and then when you adjusted the second knob, the first went out of place. And on and on and on. It was an endless cycle of pain and frustration. So, when looking for my fine finish sprayer I wanted to find one with only one knob.
Stake Out Your Storage
The last thing that gave me trouble when trying to find a paint sprayer was the actual storage for the paint. With my Graco, I just had to attach the hose to a gallon or five gallon bucket of paint, and boom! Ready. That process is great for painting such large projects where so much paint will be used, but again, it’s not very practical for smaller scale.
When I was testing out sprayers, before I found the Graco, I was irritated with some of the ones that had the little buckets or holders for the paint on the sprayers, as you had to refill them constantly. Now that I’m looking for a fine finish sprayer, I’m going to take a look at some of those again, because with detailed work and smaller surfaces, I won’t need to refill the paint holder so often.
The Best Fine Finish Sprayer
With all of those criteria in mind, I ultimately found that the HomeRight Finish Max Fine Finish Sprayer was the best fine finish paint sprayer around. I get asked about paint sprayers a lot, and it’s nice to be able to offer up the right options for the different kinds of jobs you want to do.
I generally end up painting small projects by hand, but sometimes painting small projects by hand can be a pain, especially when there are spindles and crevices and nooks and crannies to get into. Additionally, achieving a perfectly smooth finish with a brush and roller can be difficult to master, so having a second sprayer for small projects has been on my list for a while. I’m really glad I have the HomeRight Finish Max Fine Finish Sprayer as another option for small paint jobs.
HomeRight Finish Max Fine Finish Sprayer
I used the FinishMax to paint the floating shelves I built for my kitchen and couldn’t believe how easy it was to use and how perfect the finish was with so little effort on my part.
The knob situation is perfect–there is only one adjustment knob to worry about and that allows you to control the amount of material flow. Lot’s of HVLP sprayers are so hard to use because you have to adjust the material flow and then the air pressure and then the material and the air…they’re a constant tug of war trying to get it just right. Not with this one! FinishMax only has one knob, and that’s the best way to be!
The key to getting a good finish is to follow the instruction manual’s viscosity chart and make sure the material you are using is thinned down properly. Simply run your paint through a little funnel that is provided and time how long it takes for it to run out. EASY. Then, fill your cup, and test your technique on some scrap wood before you dive into your project.
I have to say, I found that the paint cup lasted for quite a long time when working on the detail work, and the fears I had about having to go fill it up constantly were unfounded. The paint cup was perfect!
I actually tried this sprayer out a couple years ago when I was searching for my large paint sprayer and was not able to get a good finish, but I was having issues with my paint and couldn’t make a judgment on the sprayer until I had given it another try. This time I made sure to thin my paint properly, mix it well, and strain it before adding it to the cup. So, my conclusion on my first trial with the HomeRight Finish Max Fine Finish Sprayer is that is was user error. What can I say? All in all, the HomeRight FinishMax is a great little paint sprayer, perfect for the projects my larger sprayer can’t handle. This little guy is precise, powerful, and quite honestly, pretty awesome!
Disclosure: I received this product free of charge to try out with NO obligation or compensation to share my experience with you. You know how particular I am about sharing products — and I give the FinishMax two thumbs up and wanted to share that with you. All words and opinions expressed in this post are all my own.

Denise Hearne says
Would love to win this sprayer. I have several projects coming up and have wanted to paint with a sprayer but thought it was too much trouble. Would you give a few more details about straining your paint before using the sprayer? Thanks!
Sandra says
You can use cheese cloth or a funnel shaped strainer that sits on top of the cup which strains the paint as you pour it into the cup. It’s not really necessary if your paint is new but if it’s old and been opened and closed, paint poured out and back in…there can be some lumps of dried paint. Straining it gets all the chunks out that would clog the nozzle.
Maggie B says
I would love this! We need to get working on our baseboards…
Kim J. says
I would love the opportunity to win this! We just recently added some “barn style” doors in our house to close off some openings that one of cats keeps getting into and tearing up my furniture!! I need to finish the project and this would be great 🙂
Dahna Branyan says
Got the old furniture. Got the paint. Now I just need this cute puppy to finish the job. How difficult is it to clean?
Sandra says
Not at all. Rinse the cup, fill with water and spray into a bucket. Then remove the nozzle and rinse that.
Edna says
Sounds like a great thing to have around if you are painting a lot of items! I’m going to paint the legs on my living room sofa/loveseat as well as the matching tables. This would be perfect. Thank you for the giveaway and good luck to all 🙂

seth m. says
A while back I bought a gravity feed sprayer to use with my compressor, but I was having absolutely NO LUCK with it. I returned it last week and now I am without a sprayer. My father-in-law has a full-size airless sprayer because he’s going to paint his house soon. I’ve used in on the walls at our house, but it’s way too big and beefy to get it out and use if I’m just going to spray a bookshelf, or dresser, etc. i NEED one of these small sprayers, I just don’t know which one to get. Thanks for your feedback on it. I hope I win! 🙂

I am about to undertake repaining a bunch of doors and have been thinking about doing it with a sprayer… would love to win one though!
Sarah says
I just primed my unfinished drywall in the basement with a large capacity sprayer like you were talking about (borrowed from my brother). When I was in the process of using it, I wasn’t sure that I was too happy about how I was doing. But after it all dried, I hadn’t done too badly. I have decided to paint the trim by hand instead of wasting so much paint. But I do want a paint sprayer to use on smaller projects, like furniture and shelves. This seems like a great investment.
Shannon B says
I’d love to try this sprayer – I’ve used another brand before with so-so results – I have heard good things about this one!

Theran says
I’m sure you’ve heard this a million times before, but you have truly inspired me. I always felt that I was great at destruction and wished I was good at construction. I bought myself a filthy, beat up, 100 year old house with beautiful light and wonderful neighbors. I’ve been slowly but surely rebuilding it, following along with you, and putting in a kitchen. Not nearly as fancy as yours and not as much done by hand, but it’s a start. I have a number of pieces of furniture to paint, but figure that a sprayer will have to be in another year’s budget. Who know, maybe I’ll get lucky. Thanks for everything! Theran

Karen Anderson says
I’m the classic “champagne tastes on a beer drinker’s budget” girl! I want high-end, non-builder grade details, without having the budget for them. That same love of details comes comes into play when I think about painting my 20 year old kitchen cabinets. I know spraying them is the way to go, but I don’t have the money to send them out to be done. I cringe whenever I think about the final product looking hand-painted, especially the groove. If I won the Finish Max, that wouldn’t be a problem. I promise you’d hear my loud “WOO HOO” all the way from Virginia! 🙂 Cheers and thanks!
