Oil free clean air, and 100 percent duty rated, meaning youβre getting air continuously for the full cycle, up to the CFM output β
Itβs a misconception that you can simply use any compressor with a large air tank and youβll get continuous delivery of air. You also need the CFM output to suit the CFM requirement for the gun / air cap β again itβs important to understand, itβs not all about the tank size.

Is the new Graco Ultra QuickShot 2 worth the investment, or should you stick to the original?
Β
In this video, Iβm 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 donβt ruin your mesh filters)!
