I love all of the Finish Max products, but for big projects, the Homeright Finish Max Pro is the best option. It’s more lightweight because the motor is separate of the spray gun. My niece Leann and I made a deal. I needed some old fence boards for my Etsy shop, and she wanted a new fence. I got a great deal on some new boards, and she is carefully taking down the old boards and saving them for me. Then the nice folks at Thompson’s WaterSeal offered me a chance to try out their new waterproofing stains. They have 5 colors and each come in
- Transparent (Provides complete outdoor wood protection by adding subtle color)
- Semi (Adds beautiful color while still allowing some wood grain to be seen)
- Solid (Hides the wood grain while allowing wood texture to show)
So, off I went with my HomeRight Finish Max Pro to tackle Leann’s fence. I don’t remember exactly how many sections of fence she has, but she’s been slowly replacing the boards whenever she gets the time. I of course love the look of the perfectly weathered gray boards.
Leann chose Acorn, in the Transparent finish. I have my trusty Finish Max Pro all ready to make this job a breeze! It’s great for all paints and stains, but because the Thompson’s WaterSeal is water based, it sprayed great and cleanup was easy too!
Using an extension cord, the power cord and the hose on the Finish Max Pro allows me to reach all the way down the front sections of fence. I started on the left and worked toward the right. Leann chose not to replace the 2×4 cross boards, and I like the way the Thompson’s WaterSeal helps all the boards match better, even using the Transparent option.
Leann got in on the action too! She chose to do the wide horizontal spray option for the vertical boards, then spin the nozzle around to do get a vertical spray to do the cross boards. The Finish Max products all have an adjustment that will spray a pattern from 1-6”.
I keep a chip brush in my Finish Max bag—it really comes in handy if I have drips. I just kept it in a tub of water and shook it out if we got too close to the fence and got a run. The Thompson’s WaterSeal is a great consistency for spraying. It does say “do not thin”.
Look how great the fence looks, and how there is very little stain on the grass! That’s my favorite part about the Finish Max products, so little over spray! TIP: The Finish Max Pro comes with two paint cups. We tag teamed this job. While someone was spraying, someone else was filling up the empty cup with stain. It really was a time saver!

Our fence could REALLY use this!
Really need this! Been needing to stain/seal my fence on our 1/2 acre yard!
Hope I win! Love the blog!
I would use it to redo my parents deck, they are in their 70’s and we help them a lot. This would get it done in no time. I also do some furniture refinishes so this would be great for even coats
Paint all the rooms in my house. I’ve been here two years and the original boring color is on the walls
There are so many projects I could use this for! I need to stain my fence, I’m cleaning & staining the concrete on my patio and painting rooms. I know there are a so many other projects this would be excellent for, I just can’t think of all of them at the moment. I’m always in the middle of some kind of project.
I need to paint to soffit trim on my house. It is torture to contort my body to paint upside down. I bet this Homeright would make it soooooooo much easier!
New deck and front porch need sealed.
Have several projects going. Next one needing paint I think is going to be a set of headboard posts converted to plant stands.
What an amazing product to giveaway. I am a single mom that bought a house for myself and my three girls, and this summer we are having to repair and fix the fence and paint the exterior of the house.. Lots of work, but something like that will make it go so much faster and make things go easier. Thanks for the opportunity.
I love seeing all your projects!
I have several pieces of furniture waiting to be painted in my garage which includes a table and six chairs! This would make the chairs SO much easier!!!
Building a house, Sheetrock being hung right now. The Home Pro would make priming and painting the house a breeze. Love following all your projects, have attempted a few furniture re-do projects inspired by your posts. Thank you!
My husband and I need to stain over 75 feet of fence. We had to get the 6ft fence after one our newly adopted pups jumped right over our chain link. It was an unexpected big expensive but worth it to keep them safe. The staining project just seems daunting so we haven’t done it. This would make it so much easier!
