I think y’all know how much I love my Homeright Finish Max. I use it for most of my projects to get good coverage with my paint. Typically Iuse my DIY chalky paint made with latex (semi-gloss) wall paint as a primer, then using the out of the can semi-gloss as a topcoat. That’s how I paint most of my indoor furniture projects.
Today I’m talking about painting outdoor projects with my Finish Max. I wanted good coverage that will last, and indoor wall paint didn’t seem to be the best choice.
Use a Finish Max Paint Sprayer for Outdoor Projects
This outdoor planter was given to me many years ago. I’ve always liked it, but I’ve never really gotten anything to grow in it. It’s sort of small, and it’s difficult to find a pot to fit it.
Prep project using wire brush
To prep this planter for painting, I used a wire brush to take care of the rustiness. After using the wire brush on it, I washed it really well with the hose and allowed it to dry completely. note: use caution when doing projects that may contain lead paint.
Whenever painting, dirt and rust are your enemy. If you paint over rust, the rust will flake off, taking the paint with it. 
This is the first time I’ve ever used this Rust-Oleum high gloss paint
The downfall of this paint is the limited colors. We all know that latex wall paint is available in endless options—sheens AND colors!
Refresh outdoor projects using a paint sprayer
Here is the after! The coverage was exceptional and the flow in the Finish Max was great. I was nervous about the cleanup, so I moved quickly and didn’t take any in-progress pictures. The can says “fast drying” so I cleaned the Finish Max
Because I was afraid there might be a problem, I did use some liquid dish detergent to clean up. I have an extra cup, so I used some warm water and soap to run through the Finish Max until it ran clear. Then I used the hose to clean the nozzle, tube, and the machine. 
You can see that it took very little paint to complete this project. Look for more high gloss black projects in the future! 
I’m so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried out a different paint in my Finish Max. It’s not just for indoor projects! 
I put this little yellow pouf in there, but I think it actually needs some trailing plants/vines, don’t you? I guess I could even put a solar light in it!
How to quickly paint a birdbath
While buying some high gloss black paint, I also picked up some white to update my birdbaths! I am sure this birdbath is probably older than me. It belonged to Jamie’s paternal grandparents. I worked on chipping away the paint that was flaking, then used a wire brush on it.
Note: use caution when dealing with old paint that may contain lead. 
I slipped some cardboard under the birdbath, then got busy freshening it up! 
It’s not perfect (due to the layers and layers of paint) but it sure makes me smile every time I look out the kitchen window. It looks so much better, and it was so incredibly easy to paint it using my Finish Max.
I used a little of the leftover paint in the cup to pour into the bowl of the birdbath to give a nice thick protective covering using a paint brush. Those layers of paint probably have a lot of stories to tell. 
Like I said above, I am so happy I expanded my horizons and used yet another paint product in my beloved Finish Max. You can see other projects here.

Sheila Walker says
May 11, 2015 at 10:00 pmYou are my DIY idol, really not just flattery. We purchased a fixer upper house 2 years ago and will probably be remodeling/rebuilding until we can’t see to hammer a nail anymore. As to using a Finish Max outside I have a list a mile look like the mailbox and pole, a metal swing bench, the side of the garage (there was no side when we bought the place), the deck, the window framing, and even my husband’s little metal wagon that he pulls behind his 4 wheeler to attack all his honey do items outside. whew, there’s lot’s more, but you get the idea. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.

May 11, 2015 at 12:19 pmI have a deck that needs to be stained and we inherited a really nice patio set that is a bit worked over. I would love to be able to freshen those up for the summer.
Anthony Linhardt says
May 11, 2015 at 8:59 amWould love to have a chance to win this sprayer. I am trying to redo my old metal outdoor chairs, I have the new cushions but still need to clean up and repaint the chairs themselves. This sprayer would work wonders because these particular chairs have lots of tubular pieces that make up the chairs so painting with a brush would be very time consuming. Based on all the reviews you have posted in your blog this sprayer would be able to tackle the job with ease. Going to use a Rustoleum like you were using paint.

I have a birdbath in the front garden that is looking very tired. Also have a wicker patio grouping that needs painted!! I need a Homeright Finish Max!! 🙂 Thank you for the chance to win one. I really enjoy following you on facebook , I read everything you post! I enjoy painting and always love giving tired pieces a new look!!

MaryAnn says
May 10, 2015 at 6:59 pmI have a ton of things to paint this summer, decks, sheds, furniture, etc, so a sprayer would be a fabulous tool! Now if it would just stop snowing!
Judy says
May 10, 2015 at 3:52 pmI’ve just learned about Home Right sprayers this week and all sorts of ideas are running through my head. For outdoors, I’ve got a whole load of bird feeders and hanging bars that need to be refreshed. Metal lawn furniture is another. And then there’s this totally adorable ride on metal red fire chief car that is rusting. It’s a multi-generational kids riding car that I had finally given up hope that my kids were the end of the line for it. Not anymore. It can be painted and look as good as new to give to the next family generation. This sprayer would be perfect.

Wendy says
May 9, 2015 at 10:28 amThat birdbath looks fabulous! I have so many projects that i want to paint, and don’t because I’m frustrated about how long it would take/cleanup, etc. I’d LOVE one of these to make it easy!
Robin W says
May 9, 2015 at 9:21 amOH! I forgot to tell you how great your project turned out! I vote for a solar light in the black planter. It looks like a miniature gas lamp sorta.
Robin W says
May 9, 2015 at 9:18 amI have some metal outdoor chairs (the kind that are from the say ’50s with a solid metal seat/back and round metal structure) that I got from my in-laws when they moved. I would love to bring them back to their former beauty of a pale green and white!
Isela Martinez says
May 8, 2015 at 7:26 pmAfter 18 1/2 years of military service, my husband and I bought our first home aka as our retirement home. I have many projects in the plans. A gazebo, an outdoor kitchen, a wooden fence, outdoor seating (I will be making this myself). So, as you can see, a Home right sprayer would simplify my life. As of now, I’ve been painting with a paint brush and staining with an old T-shirt. Please help 🙂
Kelli Elsass says
May 8, 2015 at 12:24 pmI have several outdoor projects to paint. I am repurposing some chairs into benches, got an old wrought iron deck set that needs refinishing, and hoping to dig out my grandparents old metal glider and repaint so we can put it to good use. So many more to do and a paint sprayer would make all those projects easier to complete.
Tracey says
May 8, 2015 at 8:15 amIt would be great to use the FinishMax to paint my metal glider as well as metal plant stand. After that I’d definitely use it on my benches and planters that go around the perimeter of my patio. After that, my ranch fencing around my yard, garden fence, arbor… Ut oh, I’m realizing how much I should get painting 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway.

May 8, 2015 at 12:50 amI have some furniture cushions that are still in good shape except they are all faded and look bad. I’ve seen on some other blogs that people just paint them and bring new life to them. In fact the paint actually gives them a great outdoor protection and a wipe clean surface. I would love to paint mine, maybe add a strip or stenciled design. Thanks for a great giveaway!
Jo says
May 7, 2015 at 9:17 pmOur deck needs to be refinished. This would make the job so much easier with the spindles.

I would love to paint. Just need to bring them outside to do it 🙂 Does that count? lol
Donna in SC says
May 7, 2015 at 8:51 amThe list is long, but to begin with, I would love to refinish my metal deck rockers….they are looking pretty tired.
Doris Styles says
May 7, 2015 at 6:30 amI don’t have anything outdoors to paint or stain…but I sure have a plenty of furniture to carry outside to paint. 🙂

Carrie Petit says
May 7, 2015 at 1:30 amI am so inspired by your blog! I have plans to paint an old rocking chair (to turn into a planter)and a couple of benches for outdoor decor. I keep thinking it is time to get a sprayer!
Eileen says
May 7, 2015 at 1:02 amalways enjoy your posts! I am going to redo our walkway wood decking and metal handrails. Come to think of it my grandson’s play structure could use a new finish as well as all my rescued outdoor planters! This would be a huge help!!
Patti Buist says
May 6, 2015 at 11:58 pmI would like to paint my garage door and the shaker style shingles – wondering if your sprayer would work for those projects?

Letty Hixon says
May 6, 2015 at 10:15 pmI am going to start sanding my deck tomorrow. A Homeright Finish Max sprayer would make that project go so much faster. it is a double deck so I need this twice as much!

May 6, 2015 at 7:17 pmSadly nothing outdoors as we just downsized when we moved from the west coast to the east coast. But my dining table is ready for some white legs and a stain on top to finally match the chairs I did 2 years ago! Always dreamed of a good sprayer, thanks for the review 🙂

Laura Wilk says
May 6, 2015 at 5:55 pmI scored this beautiful wooden patio set for free, but it definitely needs some love. Its structurally sounds, however it needs lots of love in the paint department! Not only would this tool come in handy for this project, but the numerous other projects I have as well. Thanks for the giveaway!
Karen C says
May 6, 2015 at 5:33 pmOur adirondack chairs need painting, as well as one picnic table and a potting table.
I would really like to try spray painting. I have done a lot of woodwork inside by hand it’s very tedious and takes four coats. Working on the floor is hard even with knee pads. I have more woodwork that needs painting too. I would remove it just for the ease of spraying it.
Dorothy McGinley says
May 6, 2015 at 4:30 pmI paint everything in sight outside: Adirondack chairs, planters, bird houses, plant stands. Last year I spray painted an elephant pink and we used it outside as a small table. It got lots of notice. This year I’m hoping to paint the outdoor furniture so we can get another year or two out of it. I love the fact that I could paint better and faster with the Homeright.
terry hayes says
May 6, 2015 at 4:03 pmThere are so many projects I could use this on around my house. The sprayer seems so easy to use but most of all easy to clean. All of your projects are amazing!

May 6, 2015 at 3:02 pmWhat timing! It is time to stain the fence again. Because I live on the corner of a circle I have a postage stamp for a front yard and a huge backyard surrounded by a 6 foot cedar fence. I try to stain in every 3rd year and this is the 3rd year. Whoopee!

Celeste Baldwin says
May 6, 2015 at 2:23 pmNot sure yet on what painting will be needing done in the near future as we have moved out of state and haven’t found a new home yet. But I do know everything in our price range will need a LOT LOT LOT of love (and paint) inside and out. This sprayer certainly would come in handy.
Pam says
May 6, 2015 at 2:22 pmGoodness, where do I begin?! The front porch, back deck, deck at fish pond, all the outdoor furniture and I could go on I’m sure! My husband is building a potting shed for me this spring and of course it will need a coat of paint. So many of the blogs I follow talk about the Homeright Finish Max that I would love to try it out myself!
Patricia says
May 6, 2015 at 2:03 pmOh! well, what DOESN’T NEED A COAT OF PAINT AROUND HERE… would be much easier to list.
But I have an old iron bed- turned bench years ago… it could use paint.
My porch floor…could use paint…
the last two outer walls of my house could use some paint…since I painted the East and West walls a year and half ago…the North and South walls… are feeling a bit neglected!
…I just want to say also, you know what I learned here from you? How to expand my horizons! You’ve come a long way Gail!

Once I’m done with those, I have an old desk in the garage for my daughter that I have been promising to paint for her room. Then I would repaint my kitchen table and chairs.

charlene says
May 6, 2015 at 10:25 amI am always in awe when I see your re-do projects. It inspired me to actually drag that olive green file cabinet outside and repaint it! Next up is redoing our kitchen table. It will be so easy after I win this sprayer!

May 6, 2015 at 9:50 amI could use a sprayer like that for my block walls!!
Ashley says
May 6, 2015 at 9:42 amI would love to have one of these! I have a couple antique outdoor metal chairs that need to be repainted that my grandma gave me. We just bought a house and my hubby found a tool chest that could use some sprucing up as well. I want to turn it into a planter since it is too rough for its original purpose. Thanks for all the great ideas!
Pam Goodvin says
May 6, 2015 at 9:31 amI love following your success, with that said I am starting of with a new Japanese style shed on our back yard and a large gate that are in need of new sealant, I then am repainting all out outdoor metal furniture. Maybe when that is done I can move back to inside renovating projects, I have 2 of 3 bathrooms and kitchen cupboards to redo, thank you for your inspiration

May 6, 2015 at 9:09 amIn the middle of a lake house rehab. There are so many things that will need to be painted, both inside and outside. I would love to win this and cut down the painting time that all of these will take. Thanks for the opportunity!

Jill Bieber says
May 6, 2015 at 9:02 amthe outdoor projects that the Homeright Finish Max would greatly help me do this year:
Stain our 3 year old upper deck that is now sun bleached.
Repaint our deck around our pool after the necessary repairs are made.
Paint our sun bleached Adirondack chairs.
Paint the back of our lower level of our home that is cinder block.
Paint the fence we are repurposing (our neighbor was throwing away) for around our garden.
I have been drooling over your website with all of the beautiful projects you complete with the Finish Max and would love to have one as my own. These are very large projects that would be finished with ease using the Homeright Finish Max! I have been following you for a long time. You do amazing work!

karen says
May 6, 2015 at 8:43 amcan not wait to paint my shed with a new finish max! I also have to build and paint shutters! and paint 4 garage doors and 4 entry doors! All that would go a lot easier with a finish max!
Michele Carter says
May 6, 2015 at 8:39 amWe need to paint our front porch BADLY and stain our back deck. Using the Homeright Finish Max would be the perfect tool for our jobs!
Donna says
May 6, 2015 at 8:38 amThe Finish Max Fine Finish would come in handy for all the furniture projects you have inspired me to do!!!
Christina says
May 6, 2015 at 8:34 amGail, these projects turned out AWESOME!!! I am glad you followed your instincts to clean the sprayer right away. I’d hate to risk ruining such a great piece of equipment.
I need the Finish Max Fine Finish HVLP paint sprayer to paint an outdoor clock, two sides of a storage shed, my over the bed table I use for my desk and oh so much more. Thanks for the chance!
Mary Beth says
May 6, 2015 at 8:33 amWant to make a light fixture into a hanging planter and the Finish Max would be perfect to paint it once I’m done!
Gail Ebeling says
May 6, 2015 at 8:28 amI need to stain lots of fencing. Hope it works. I am tired of rolling
Dannielle Vincent says
May 6, 2015 at 8:27 amThe Finish Max would help so much in staining my wooden patio set!
With summer right around the corner, I can’t put it off for much longer. =)
Thanks for another brilliant Repurposed post!
Jeanette says
May 6, 2015 at 8:26 amI need to paint my metal patio furniture. Very daunted by all the slats and creases. Would love to try this.
Sang yi says
May 6, 2015 at 8:24 amI need to repaint my outdoor deck. Just purchased my new home and the deck is not up to par 🙁
Karen Crowder says
May 6, 2015 at 8:24 amWow, the Homeright spray painter does a great job. I have patio chairs that need to be freshened up, plus my picnic table (after hubby completed several projects on it).
Kathy Anderson says
May 6, 2015 at 8:17 amMetal table and chairs on the deck, wicker chairs on the porch, wooden deck box and chairs. This would come in so handy for the many projects you have inspired me to do. Many of these projects have sat in my garage for several years. You have inspired me to begin and actually finish these items and I am selling them at a local market. I sold an old dresser that I finished using your chalky finish paint recipe and made over $250.00. Thanks for all you do!
Jessica Wotachek says
May 6, 2015 at 8:16 amMy deck and the kiddos playground equipment could really use some stain! But it’s so much area to brush on! Lol

Amy Bohner says
May 6, 2015 at 8:09 amOooh, I also have some outdoor furniture that needs paint. I will have to try this. Looks great!
Joellen Muller says
May 6, 2015 at 8:04 amWe need to paint porch railings and some out door pallet projects. Our chicken coop could use a fresh coat of paint as well.
Kristi says
May 6, 2015 at 7:58 amI have so many projects that this could help with – staining my fence, re painting patio furniture, trying my hand at refinishing a dresser….. the possibilities seem endless!
Catherine Martinez says
May 6, 2015 at 7:54 amWonderful work as always!
My front door steps need some patching and repainting. Its not to the point of replacing, but could use some help with covering up where old paint is peeling, and new concrete patches are made. Any recommendation on a paint that will last more than one year? Ps. I live in MN, so it will not only have to cover, but hold through salt and shoveling. Thanks!
gail@myrepurposedlife.com says
May 6, 2015 at 8:25 amCatherine,
Thanks for entering! I’m sorry, I wouldn’t dare try to recommend a paint that will last more than a year.
Good luck in the giveaway.

May 6, 2015 at 7:53 amSo nice to be able to read about the real usage of a product over time. (Not just once and done)
Try some succulents in you planter, you can get trailing ones.
Thank you

Roger Nolen says
May 6, 2015 at 7:44 amI need this to compliment my big sprayer for small projects like arbors, planters, and a small section of fence.
Alisa says
May 6, 2015 at 7:25 amThere are so many outdoor projects I would love to paint; planters, furniture, birdbath, lighting. The list can go on and on…now where to begin is the question. Love your site…so full of inspiration!
TS says
May 6, 2015 at 7:18 amI have some wood patio furniture that needs restrained plus we will be replacing a deck on the front of our home that the Finish Max would be great to use for these upcoming projects.
Laurel Jackson says
May 6, 2015 at 7:13 amI have rockers on my front porch that needs staining or possibly painting it would give a pop of color in a darker area.I love looking at your blog in getting ideas of things I can repurpose or redo around the house or things that I possibly find other thrift store.I’m currently working on repurposing some sewing table that my husband bought from the county near us for $1for 6 sewing table.
Laura Johnson says
May 6, 2015 at 7:03 amI’d use it to repaint the shed! Have to fix it up. Would make the project go so much faster! Thanks for sharing!
Hope Phillips says
May 6, 2015 at 6:43 amI have been wanting one of these for quite a while! So many projects and not enough time, this would sure help. I have outdoor rocking chairs to paint, a trellis for the garden I just built, and quite a few wooden stools.
Kathy Krechevsky says
May 6, 2015 at 6:32 amGreat info! Hoping to repaint a birdbath myself this spring. I especially want to address the basin which regularly gunks up with leaves and mildew if not emptied daily!
Deanna T says
May 6, 2015 at 6:10 amNeed it
There is a lot of things that need repainted. The shutters, the lights, and the porch.
Christy curry says
May 6, 2015 at 6:10 amI am a big DIYer who recently had a baby. So in behind on my projects and having a sprayer like this would be awesome for getting back on track! I need to put a coat of paint on the wooden swingset we built a few years back for starters. After that I’m sure I would want to paint about everything since I could do it quickly and with ease now with the sprayer!! Ha! 😉
Tracy@www.bluridgevintage.com says
May 6, 2015 at 6:02 amI have never used the Finish Max, but it seems like it really does a great job with all painting jobs. There are a few things that I can think of right now that need the Finish Max touch. The lamp post planter turned out really well. I think your right it might need a combination of a solar light and some vine flowing out of it. Seems like your getting the outdoors spruced up for Spring/Summer.
gail@myrepurposedlife.com says
May 6, 2015 at 8:28 amTracy,
I’ve been working a little each day trying to get the yard spruced up. I’m not sure there are enough days to get it all done.

Rita Champine says
May 6, 2015 at 6:01 amI have several projects that I would love to use a Homeright Finish Max on. I have a glass wrought iron table that was given to me, an old decorative wheelbarrow that I rescued from the neighbors trash, some beautiful wrought iron tall candle sticks that I use for plant stands that I got at a garage sale…..oh the list is endless of what I could use this product for.
I would also like to say, thank you for all your post and inspiring me daily with your amazing projects. So glad I found you!!
