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!

List only one project, I have several and have recently been looking at paint sprayers. Need this now:)
I got a wonderful drop leaf table for free that’s just begging to be refinished. Also, my fence.
Treehouse, never built one before, just bought a house and have a great tree for it, kids can be pushy when they want something!! so this summer, building a treehouse is by far my biggest project that this would come in super handy for!!
I could really use this to redo the wooden fence I have. With two knee surgeries in the past year I can’t bend down to paint the bottom of the boards. I just love your blog . Your are a very talented lady that inspires me to do the work my self!!
i would love to stain all of our shingled siding a weathered gray!
Hi, This is something I have wanted for a long time. I have two decks to do this summer and this would make my life a lot easier. I also am repurposing furniture. Would also work great for that. Good Luck to All!
The posts on our deck need a new look. Would love to try this product!
What an awesome product. My husband and I have had several conversations recently about what our plan is to finish of our fence, and this would be a great solution!
I have a large fence and deck that are in great need of staining and I would love to save time by using the Homeright MaxPro. I like the finish that it left on your fence.
Oh! That would work great for my project. I have a wrap around porch that we did have screen and have wood. It would awesome not to have to paint that by hand.
I would love to use this on so many projects, but my garden shed is T-11 sided… the unfriendly paint/stain kind. Brushing the rough texture is a nightmare and the sprayer would be a dream to use and get the job done. And, there is the same dreaded siding on the garage. And I have recycled decking that needs to be coated. Homeright Finish Max Pro would be my hero 🙂
Thanks for a chance to win a great giveaway!
I have out door furniture that needs a complete make over. The Homeright Finish Max Pro would be perfect for the job. Thank you for the opportunity!
We are buying our dream home in 2 weeks and need to restrain the deck and fence. This will help us enjoy our home even faster!
