That's where people end up cheaper, the ones who dont leave a clean an tidy job and just bash it on are always less than those who take care to get a neat clean finish. Sometimes that's the difference between winning a job. The extra cost is because of the prep but clients don't see that.

No matter how good the spray finish looks, it never will be like done by hand. That's my ultimate conclusion after a lot of experiments. The spray finish has the benefits of quick and profitable method, also is easy to rectify any mistakes, but as for quality and protection hand applying wins the day for me.

I find the hopper guns difficult to get a good spray pattern, no idea if this is any different. Seems pricey for what it is.

Hi mate, you running the hopper gun with your eze compressor. I have a small job to do with a curved top (so didn't want to hand apply). Does it do a nice tight finish like the eze ? Cheers

It's great for smaller jobs. Leaves a lovely finish. Greater control for fiddly areas too it's one handed and the trigger is light and variable. Not just on/off.
Yeah I just use the little Gentilin.
the job he done looked s**t but that's because he is a cowboy but 10 out of 10 for the idea.

Yeah there used to be a seller that did them for about £20. Not sure they're on there anymore but I'll have a look.

Can someone tell me if I could use the air compressor off my strata to attach this to? Just wondering for future reference as I have a spare one.

Should do mate, might need an air regulator though so the compressors thermal cut out don't kick in

Yes mate I have a eze. But I did a big job for a customer last year and now there's a little bit less than 10m2 and all the paving is now down so I thought it would be a idea just to use a little hopper with the compressor
