Anybody Use One Of These Hand Pump Spruzzi Texture Guns?


Anybody use one of these hand pump Spruzzi texture guns for small repairs?

I can't believe I am getting ready to plunk down over a hundred bucks for this thing.

Diamond Wall’s new texture spray gun, the Spruzzi, is manufactured of high-quality materials including brass spray tips and mounting assembly and a stainless steel plunger rod. The Spruzzi is intended as a durable, cost-effective alternative to spray cans. The texture spray gun includes 2 adjustable spray tips that allow eased matching of orange peel, knockdown, and acoustic textures.

A hundred bucks? Try looking at a menards or home depot. I know I've seen them there for around $45. Definately not as nice though.

We use this one and really like it. Close to $200 with shipping

LACO TG500 Hand Pump Texture Gun

You get what you pay for with patch guns - we learned the hard way.

There is a slight learning curve but well worth the money.

I really wanted the Red Tail T100 Texture Gun but couldn't justify the $350 plus shipping.

I also bought this Drywall Squeegee from All-Wall which works nice as well

I have a plastic one but I wouldn't use it for more than a few patch spots. Damn thing will wear you out. They are also just as hard to use in tight places as a hopper.
