Guest TintMiester Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 I've had one of those in my 3 gallon pump up sprayer for the last 6 years.. I only blew up one sprayer! haha.. Be careful when airing it up when its full of water, because it will split the bottle.. I use the hand pump until it is 1/4 down before using the compressor. Its very nice. The reason to still use the pump sprayer, instead of the pepsi container, is so that if you have no pressure source, then you can still make pressure.

bogie Posted October 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 Have never blown one up, but the old one's had a pressure relief valve that let off at about 39 lbs., got tired of pumping them up, so came up with this. We have used them this way for 5 or 6 years and have yet to have a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exact-Oh Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 The plastic spayer shown in the first pic, if you leave the top hand pump mechinism on it, has it's own relief valve. Depending on the CFM of your compressor, you shouldn't be able to pump it up too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thetintshop Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 I quit using them because after a while they start putting out little tiny pieces of plastic where the plate rubs the inside of the cylinder. they come out with the water causing little contamintion crap all in the film, and you can't see them until the tint dries. so I switched to the cornelius tank and problem solved. built mine for a few bucks more than one of those black sprayers cost. and I was buying a new pump assembly every six months. funk that.

Exact-Oh Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 I'll agree with that. I have two pump assemblies hangin' on the wall now. One doesn't pump for sh*t, and the second one leaks out in about 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FastBackJack Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 My tank 1/2 full (2-3 gal) weighs less than a full plastic tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosierwindowtek Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 A plastic tank would be easier to blow up with too much pressure than a metal one would, but it sure would be a whole lot safer... Either way, the situation calls for caution. I used to work at a place where guys would do that with an atifreeze jug for a prank. Just put a tire valve in, connect a tire inflator, put jug nearby someone not expecting it, then turn on valve at the other end of the hose...BOOM! It's pretty mean and sounds like a shotgun or 2 going of at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
