Prep Gun Advice

[Mr. Clean]

The Hypro Trigger Gun is promoted in a popular supplier catalog as "less operator fatigue". Unfortunately, none of the myriad gun options lists weights and my only experience has been with US Paraplate and the house brand. The former are durable but heavy, the latter don't seem to last.

Anyone have recommendations for a light weight, ergonomic, durable gun for tunnel prepping?

Thanks!

We have been using this one for about 2 years: https://www.kleen-ritecorp.com/p-60...rigger-8-gpm-spray-gun-non-weep-4500-psi.aspx

They have been durable and comfortable to use.

Thank you, David. I'll add one to the order and give it a try.

Is the wand standard length? I was thinking shorter might also lessen fatigue.

Paraplate is about as bad as it comes regarding comfort of use. The grip shape is nowhere near as comfortable as anything else, and the balance is crap, with the hose entering in front of your hand.

I like the Giant guns. It's smooth and comfortable. I use the JE Adams 7080 because they're so much tougher, but they're nowhere near as easy to hold for the 45 minutes a day I spend washing bays.
