Spraying Drylok Paint?

Question

I need to seal my basement walls.

The manufacturer indicates that Drylok can be sprayed. However most professionals I speak with state that it will destroy the gun.

Is it possible to spray Drylok or another sealant paint?

Yes it can be sprayed, and says so on the bucket. The spray tip orifice needs to be large though, because drylock is more like pudding. At least .025" which is bigger than the usual size used for latex paint.

Things to think about before spraying drylok…, remove the spray gun filter and the hose filter if there is one. What model sprayer are you using, does it have enough power and/or psi for the increased viscosity? And, do you have the right sized spray tip?
