Re: Advice For My Titan 440i


Maybe invest in a work vehicle also, I keep my 8' bed, tool bin on side of cap truck pretty full with the tools for the jobs. I cannot imagine what a Camry must look like. Shoot, my drop cloth binds would not fit in a Camry.

Re: Advice For My Titan 440i


1st It doesn't matter what type of rig you use, you must always oil the packings every time you use it.

2nd The best way that I have found to spray block filler is through a hopper at high pressure with a large tip and have a laborer back roll it with a 1" nap roller. It's a bitch to clean out the hopper but the time you save will pay for a new hopper.

3rd If you are spraying SW Harmony paint then you are using the wrong application of the product. As a low odor product it is meant to be used in occupied areas ie: hospitals, offices, and etc. It must be rolled to adhere to the specifications of the product.

Re: Advice For My Titan 440i


I just invested $300 in repairing my 440i. Same old Titan bs...prime valve went bad, on/off switch went bad, rod showing signs of wear. I have an Airlessco that will outperform my Titans and they're darn near bulletproof. Told the repair guy he better take a good look at the 440 because next time it goes bad it goes in the dumpster.

Yeah, I've had my fair share of failures with titans, especially the smaller pumps. Best of luck, keep it clean and oiled.
