Helpa brotha out...

35 psi at 1 gpm doesn't seem like too much. Might take some time to get r dun.


I would like to at least have 100psi at 2 gpm....but I like the efficiency thing.

Probably a Harbor Freight type item.

Spend the money on a good one, take good care of it and it will last you a very long time.

Might I suggest Mytee?

Actually Fimco is a pretty solid American company. I'm just not sure if the sprayer can hold up to the rigors of what we do.

what sprayer gets 2 gpm with, Brian??

your garden hose HF ain't doing near that.
neither are those pepsi sprayers

not if you're squirting the juice thru a jet anyway :roll:



That sprayer is likely no better or worse than a Rocket Sprayer, Mytee or Hudson


If you have a TSC farm supply store near you, I "Think" they stock Filmco 12vt sprayers.
You can look at one in person to evaluate .

generally the weak link on them is the jetgun

Looks like a sprayer that I saw at tractor supply I read the reviews on that particlula one and it was a POS Iused a Hudson never pump for a few times and it was OK not great

My garden hose starts out at better than 2 gpm but obviously I don't get that at the sprayer...so no it doesn't matter as much as the PSI to me.....but it can't be too high of pressure without enough volume either...like the cheap pressure washers etc.

I was just sayin

.but it can't be too high of pressure without enough volume either...like the cheap pressure washers etc.

I was just sayin

the cheap pressure washers are just the opposite of the low psi higher volume sprayers.
They're hi-psi/low volume

a GPM is a GPM , regardless of the psi.
you don't need psi for pre-spray anyway..you need volume

ever bucket tested any of your sprayers to actually "know" what the GPM is??


If you have an 06 jet in your soap on a rope (HF on a hose) you "might" be getting 3/4 GPH

Yes I did because I had to get the mix right. It's about 1gpm....I could use more.

I know you need volume and not as much PSI for a sprayer...but PSI is still nice.

I'm working to get more volume.
