Sure Shot A1000R 1 Quart Enameled Steel Sprayer, Red

These are awesome! I have 3 now. I can fill each one with a different liquid, label it, and it stays pressurized and ready to go for weeks. refillable, re-useable, an excellent choice. I have saved hundreds of dollars using these - they pay for themselves! The function is easy- just press the lever- the spray pattern is extra fine, they come in multiple colors, easy to use, a bit pricey but worth it, I just wipe the outside off, I have never had to clean the inside out.

I don't know for sure how much air they charge this with from the factory but it was pretty cool just squeezing the trigger right out of the box and hearing it blow the air out of it. I got it for brake cleaner and it won't be here til Tuesday. (this is Sunday) Can't wait to use it to clean stuff up with,. Very solid feeling unit. Seems to. be very well built. Very happy so far without even using it!!

Bought one of these a year ago as a way to replace the many half empty cans of carb cleaner in my garage. Very impressed at how this performs when filled with Naptha and used as a carb/brake cleaner. Just about paid for itself in a couple months with money saved buying solvent in bulk instead of by the can. Would recommend removing brass diffuser from nozzle for more direct spray pattern. Built tough, has survived many 6 ft drops and still holds air over weeks of storage. So impressed with it I bought one for my grandpa and dad!

A great tool but the only problem I had with it was it was clogged after the second day I went to use it. It seemed there is a plug or restrictor in the head that I guess broke down when I used brake cleaner in it. Which clogged the nozzle. After cleaning this out I have not had any problems but this was annoying when I couldn't originally figure out what was going on. Since clearing it it works flawlessly.

I use it for my own blend of penetrating oil. I recommend getting the extension hose to make it easier to spray those harder to reach nuts and bolts. We'll made. Holds pressure for at least a couple months in between fills.

Good

Brake parts cleaner is a must in any auto garage. Buying it in a five gallon can is much cheaper per ounce, and you won't have cans everywhere and filling your trash/recycle bin. Using a cheap siphon bulb between the can and the sprayer makes filling easier. While you can't see inside the can very well to see how much you filled, you don't have to be exact. Just leave at least a 1/3 of the can for air. My advice would be to buy the adjustable spray nozzle they have to get just the right pattern you want. The one it comes with sprays too fine a mist. Taking the pin out of the center results in a powerful stream, but the adjustable nozzle lets you quickly get just the right amount of force and coverage. I'm using way less solvent to clean new brake rotors, and the can stays pressurized until you need it. I generally pump mine up to a little over 50 psi and it works great. I also bought the filling cap with the bars to make it easier to remove without a wrench, and the 6" extension pipe so I can get the nozzle closer in tight spaces. Very sturdy, well-made, and doesn't tip over. Not cheap, but you are truly getting what you pay for here, and made in the USA.

The canister is supposed to come with a nozzle cleaner located in the bottom of the handle. It did not. Unknown if this is a knockoff or the real item I received.
