The Preval sprayer acts like a mini airbrush without all the hassle or noise. I use it for spraying paint and also for varnishing finished paintings because it gives such even coverage.
The full kit comes with a glass bottle and lid, the gas canister and the dip tube (or stem) with filter. Once you have the glass bottle with the lid, you can just replace the gas canister which also comes with a new dip tube and filter.
If you saw my post from yesterday - the one with the photo of the messy studio - you'll see a piece of cardboard sticking up on the left side of my table. That's my "spray booth", lol. The cardboard keeps the spray contained to one area then I have plastic bags covering the table to protect it. I also have an old vinyl shower curtain protecting the floor under the table. I probably don't need all of that as the Preval is really pretty precise in it's spray pattern and there's not a lot of overspray. I just feel it's better to be safe rather than sorry!
Hope I've given you another tool to put in your arsenal whether you're an artist, a woodworker or another sort of crafter. This little sprayer is easy, relatively cheap and a real help in many situations!

Great idea. I never thought about there being something so simple to replace the spray cans.
Thanks for stopping by, Judy. This thing has been a real boon to me over the years. It's very handy for a number of purposes.
