Airless paint sprayers have a pump that pressurizes the paint and converts it to a fine, atomized spray. They do not use compressed air and do not require an air compressor to function. These powerful sprayers dispense paint at higher pressures and at faster rates than other spray technologies. They can handle thicker paints and coatings and produce less overspray than conventional spray guns.

These airless paint sprayers are a complete system in a handheld unit for smaller projects that require more portability than a standard sprayer system. They use lower quantities of paint for items such as molding, trim, shutters, and doors.

Air-assist airless paint sprayers use an air compressor to further atomize the paint at the spray gun's nozzle, but air is not mixed in with the spray. These powerful sprayers dispense paint at higher pressures and faster rates than other spray technologies and provide a smoother finish than airless sprayers.

High-volume, low-pressure (HVLP) paint sprayers use large quantities of turbine-generated air to convert paint into fine, atomized droplets that dispense out of the gun nozzle in a gentle, controlled spray. The low-pressure spray slows the application of paint, allowing more droplets to stick to the surface, reducing mess and waste with overspray. HVLP sprayers are suitable for smaller coverage areas in projects that require a more precise application of spray.

Texture sprayers are designed to spray patterns on interior or exterior walls to provide a decorative or consistent finish. These sprayers are primarily used in commercial painting and construction industries to apply textures such as popcorn, orange peel, or splatter to drywall, ceilings, and siding.

These paint sprayer pumps dispense paint using the pressure generated by diaphragms that push back and forth on each other, creating suction to pull the paint into the pump and pressure to push the paint out of the sprayer. They must be paired with a spray gun to atomize the paint and often deliver high volumes of paint at lower pressures than other sprayers.
