Is the new Graco Ultra QuickShot 2 worth the investment, or should you stick to the original?
 
In this video, I’m giving you an exclusive, honest deep dive into the brand-new Graco QuickShot 2. Having field-tested prototype models for both generations, I compare both production models (QuickShot 1 Vs QuickShot 2) side-by-side to see if the Graco Ultra QuickShot 2 Airless Paint Sprayer lives up to the hype. I cover everything from unboxing, to a complete first-time setup, flushing out factory storage fluid, and setting up to spray with fine-finish airless spraying tips.

Discover the major engineering upgrades, including the new "piano key feel" trigger design, the relocated flow control, all-metal check valves, extra level of filtration, and the game-changing Quick Flush mode. Plus, I share tips and tricks, and critical maintenance mistakes to avoid (so you don’t ruin your mesh filters)!

👉 Watch until the end and comment a BLUE HEART 💙 so I know you made it! 

👎 I drop a half point in my review, do you agree?
