287030 CleanShot Shut-off Valve

This part is a must have if you are a professional painter. This helps control your paint flow with a cleaner shot of paint. Its a bit pricey but worth it because the quality of this p[art will last a lot longer than he knock off parts and i like to keep all of my parts the same brand as my paint gun.

I think this is the best investment I’ve made in the past few days. I tested it with an old $30 gun I use for production—it turns any gun into a fine finish gun. The video speaks for itself.

If you are looking to get the best possible results from your airless sprayer, this is a must. This valve will virtually eliminate "spitting" from the gun. This valve requires the proper setup, matching the pressure of the sprayer to the shut-off pressure of the valve. Couple that with a good tip for the job, spraying is virtually flawless. This valve also gives you the ability to easily pivot (angle) the spray head. This valve is a little expensive, but it does come with a RAC X Base and a tip, so the value is pretty decent. It is made by Graco and has the same quality as you would expect. A few tips for those with less experience painting: -Use the right spray tip for what you spraying. -Match your gun filter to the spray tip. -Start at a lower pressure and work up slowly to eliminate spray "tails" (this will also extend the life of the tip) -Lower the shut-off pressure of this valve until it just barely activates when spraying -Clean off the tip occasionally while spraying with a rag

Save the money of renting a lift and buy extensions to use with this valve! I have avoided to be in step ladders or ladders using it to spray and save money, time and a lot of my energy. Worth having at least one to save you in one of those trick paint projects. Although still a pricey product for its lifetime and overall quality. It could be better built, making possible to be disassembled to be cleaned.

Works well. Very expensive! Was going with a cheaper clone but decided against it. Glad I did.

After having the airless sprayer spit, I did some research and came across the Graco CleanShot. While it is expensive, it is worth it. I used this with the RACX FFLP 310 tip: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06X3QYS2V?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details to spray some shaker cabinet doors I made. No spitting! Make sure the tip is securely fastened and test spray to confirm it is seated. The door and drawer faces turned out perfectly. I have an off brand airless sprayer and this tip fits any 7/8" spray head. I wish I would have found this sooner!

I agree with everyone's comments about how great this is. That being said, it kicks pretty hard on an extension when it's pivoted at a 90° angle. My plan was to have my shield on an extension pole in one hand and my spray gun with 30 inch extension in the other hand so I could walk along the house painting gutters with no ladder. The only unexpected problem was this has such explosive power when it does engage it blows back the spray tip a good 12 inches so you end up spraying all over the place uncontrolled. Better to have a helper use the shield while you use two hands- one on the trigger and one guiding the extension/spray tip. Other than that, it worked amazingly well and I was totally satisfied. Saves me a ton of time and energy not moving and climbing ladders. Also someone commented it leaked paint all over the place... I had this same problem and had to use a wrench to get it really tight, then it stopped leaking.

It turns out that it doesn't stop the flow of paint in time; paint always gets through, and in the end, there are excessive drips.

I usually don't write reviews even if 90% of the items i buy are great and i keep them , but this one had to be one of the best thing i bought. If you paint a lot and use extensions this will be mind bamboozeling for you , you will be able to start and stop where ever you want on the wall , ceiling or what ever you are painting and the swivel is just fantastic! The only downside is if you want to use FF LP tips , it wont work , the valve inside will not open and you will not be able to spray till you add a good amount of pressure . I still used the ff lp and it did a perfect job with higher pressure . 5 stars to this add on !

Excellent stuff if you know what it is then yes it does what it should excellent product
