Spray Paint Alternative with HomeRight Sprayer
As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
I love using my HomeRight Finish Max fine finish sprayer. What does that mean exactly? Well, for me it means that I get a great paint job easily in any color I want. But the nice folks at HomeRight.com can explain it a lot better.
From their site:
This Fine Finish HVLP sprayer means that it has a high–volume, low-pressure, and this technology uses a high-volume of air at a low-pressure to apply a professional looking finish. The low pressure assures less overspray. This equates to a sprayer that will direct the finish where you want it — on your project. Precision volume control and adjustable sprayer patterns mean the Finish Max provides a smooth, even finish on projects such as; cabinets, furniture and woodworking projects. Use this Fine Finish Sprayer with paint, chalk paint, clear sealer, polyurethane, primer, stain and varnish.
Yeah… like they said, a great finish, like you’re use to getting from spray paint. But there are benefits to using a spray paint alternative.
10 Reasons to use a Finish Max as a spray paint alternative
- You can match other accessories in your room, by using the same paint you’ve used on your walls.
- You can get several different sheens from the same paint (by using DIY Chalk Paint, and any number of sealants, like wax, poly, and more.
- The clean up of latex is soap and water. Have you TRIED to get spray paint off of your hands?
- You don’t have to figure out how to recycle empty paint spray cans.
- It’s a much cheaper alternative to spray paint.
- Any item that can be spray painted, can get the Finish Max treatment
- Less odor! Spray paint is smelly!
- If your paint and your project are warmed in the sun, you can use your Finish Max at lower air temperatures than you can spray paint.
- A Finish Max will cover more square footage in less time.
- You won’t end up with an impression of a button on your finger.
Granted—there are still small items that will be spray painted, but larger items, or when I have a LOT of stuff—my Finish Max will get a workout.
I had been saving these frames with some other small items. I bought them for the night classes I was teaching. These are a typical “spray paint project”, definitely not something you would want to paint by hand.
I gathered up what I needed for this quickie project. I already had some DIY chalky paint mixed up, so I strained it into my paint cup, and got started spraying with my HomeRight Finish Max .
I sprayed the back of the frames first, then 2 light coats of the chalky paint on the front. It seriously doesn’t get any easier than this.
Are you an impatient crafter? Lately, I’ve used my hair dryer twice to speed up the drying process of my projects. This quickie chalkboard project was one of those times.
TIP: Did you know you can use this chalkboard paint in your paint sprayer? I used it on several chalkboards and the finish was soooo smooth!
Those who are gold lovers out there might be sad that I painted these small frames, but I love their new look.

I’d love to use Finish Max on our front porch and back patio furniture.
I’m working on a painted clock table right now and have a “princess” chair coming up that a home right sprayer would be perfect for!
As our family expands, and a new home was in order, all we could afford was a fixer upper. So needless to say, spray painting to update is a cheaper alternative than buying new fixtures. Unfortunately, spray paint cans are different every time. Some you get a nice finish and some you don’t. It’s a crap shoot but one I’m willing to take with so much stinkin brass!!! Haha!
I worked on some closet built-ins for my son. Rolling was SLOW!
My kitchen cabinets really need a make over and this would work out perfectly for me
Last year I spray-painted an old stand mirror frame to make into a trellis in the garden – it still looks bad. I also painted a wire waste basket and another basket for plants to grow through. I love to change out the color of garden accessories, so this would give me a leg up on 2015’s color (thinking maroon instead of bright green or purple).
I am only limited to where my imagination will take me when using a Finish Max! However, my next project will be the deck and it would be a GREAT help ๐
It seemed difficult and wasteful to spray a large coffee table recently. 4 cans of spray paint and primer get expensive. This looks like a good alternative. I’d love to try it!
I just did a small table with chalk paint that would look better with a good spray. I have 2 stools that were just calling me and that is definitely a spray project that I’ve been putting off using cans. I would love to spray them the same beautiful red as my mixer.
I have a very large armoire that I have been putting of painting because it is such a big project. The Finish Max would be perfect!
I recently painted a shelf using spray paint. The color choices and sheens are limited. I had to settle for a color that was okay, but I wasn’t in love with it. I kept thinking that I really needed a paint sprayer. If I had a sprayer I could use any color I wanted.
TI am redoing my morning room to a coffee bar and would like to paint some shelves and a hutch . Maybe a bench too. This sounds wonderful maybe I would do even more lol
