Filters & Strainers

Most blocked nozzles are caused by bits in the paint. Our filters and strainers stop them before they reach the tip: 100 micron paint strainer funnels, stainless gun filters from 30 to 200 mesh, a 60 mesh suction tube filter and a 12-piece gun set with guards, tips and filters.

Strain every tin before it goes in the sprayer and you'll spend more time spraying and less time cleaning. Everything ships from UK stock with tracked delivery, 30-day returns and a 12-month warranty.

Buying guide

Which filter where?

  • Strainer funnel — strain paint as you pour it into the pot or bucket.
  • Suction filter — on the airless pick-up tube, keeps grit out of the pump.
  • Gun filter — in the gun handle; finer mesh for thin paints, coarser for thick coatings.

Change them regularly

Clean filters after every job and replace them when they're damaged or clogged.

Questions

Which mesh should I use?
Finer mesh (higher number) for thin paints and stains; coarser for thicker emulsions. Follow your sprayer's guidance.
Do I need to strain new paint?
Yes — even new tins can contain skins or lumps that block nozzles.
