Fence Sprayer and fence treatment?

Hi we are after getting one of those fence sprayers and wondered if anybody knows of any good deals around. Found one in Focus earlier - £17.99 for actual sprayer and then £9.99 for a 5 litre tub of stuff that was on 3 for 2. Anybody sen any better value deals?

    A friend of my dh has one and he says its a waste of time and misses patches, apparently its quicker to paint by hand.

    Anyway, have you tried wilkinsons i heard theyre reasonable and have a sale on garden items atm.?

    I looked on b&q and homebase and theyre much more expensive than the offer you found.

    I have had a Cuprinol fence sprayer since they first came out. The only reasons I can think of for missing patches are:

    1) It's empty!

    2) Operator error!

    I started using a brush on my self-built fence and was so fed up with the time it was taking, I then tried my electric paint sprayer which held enough paint to last less than a minute.

    I splashed out on the fence sprayer and haven't looked back since. It is quick to fill, then hand pressurise and finally spray the fence. :D
