While your talking to yourself, ask how long you're going to keep pumping when there are electric sprayers available.

HD/Lowes should have pump sprayer repair kits available for the most popular brands which inlude tips and seals.
You could always "borrow" one from a display unit if your desperate.
Tips are all pretty standard between brands.

They are always out of loaner tips when I go. Funny how that works.
It's crazy, the complete unit is $15-$20 the wand is $11-$18
I remember someone hacked an awesome tip to an electric pump,
I guess I need to keep an extra somthing, this little tool put me out of business when it broke on the jobsite.

I've been using the cheap pump sprayers for a while now. I just received a shipment of three for $10 each from Amazon, and they're also available from the local Ace hardware for cheap. One of the spray tips got eaten by my TM pully so now that sprayer is for parts. For God's sake, just get another sprayer.

x2.... A $20 sprayer puts you out of business on the job, you've got more problems then just a broken sprayer.... I have a battery sprayer and a hydroforce sprayer as a back up or vice versa.....

Nothing wrong with a pump up but I'd get something that can take a beating. Get a stainless with a metal gun, lance and spray jets. Plastic is just not durable enough for heavy use.
if your set on not using a hydroforce type sprayer buy a plug in multi sprayer. lots of guys here have them.
i have a flexipro battery powered sprayer for encapping.

Convenient!
The new FlexiPro Rechargeable Sprayer holds a removable 2.5 gallon bottle , allowing you to easily switch chemicals. The translucent bottle also allows you to easily see when you need a refill. Fifteen feet of coiled hose allow you to move around easily while leaving the sprayer unit in one place.
Flexible!
Comes with an extra spray jet, so you can quickly and easily switch from doing carpet pre-spray to upholstery pre-spray. Removable jets allow for easy priming and rinsing of lines.
Retractable Handle!
Allows extra mobility with built-in wheels, or lift and carry with molded-in handle.
Easy to Recharge!
Between jobs, simply plug the car charger into your van's cigarette lighter or accessory outlet to maintain the battery's charge while you drive. (For proper charging with the car charger the vehicle's engine must be running.) To fully recharge the battery connect the AC wall charger for 12 hours. Sprays up to 60 gallons on a full charge!
Durable!
The rotomolded plastic housing unit is proven to last for years, as is the heavy-duty gun and stainless wand assembly. OmniPro is completely Viton fitted and repairs are easy when necessary. The battery and pump are mounted on an easy-to-access aluminum plate.

hydro force is nice and I would like to get one, but the price is up there for a container, and there are a few models, with varied prices, all I want is a nice spray tip. And to be able to put out a nice stream of. Solution. There has to be a better way to get these results, I see exterminater spraying equipment still cost $300 $400

Go to a good farm supply place and browse.
Tractor Supply, Orschlen, the Coop etc.

only downfall is the batter will eventually need replaced, im changing my battery when i get a chance, and adding a built in charger. illl make a video to show you guys.
biggest thing you want to watch for is you want to make sure whatever you buy has viton seals, they last longer then the typical rubber ones because they are chemical resistant.
regular rubber can be broken down fairly easy with our oil and grease breaking products.
