squirtgun 122 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 I was given 2 stainless steel fire exstinguishers today,they are the air charged type usually filled with water. Could I covert them to be used as chem sprayers? I have an air tank I can use to chareg them with while on a job site. Do you think a regular pump up sprayer wand will hold up? Or would making a wand out of PVC work better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 Yes. I have heard of folks using them for that. I don't know the specifics, but I think I remember a thread about them a while back on here.... Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squirtgun 122 Report post Posted January 17, 2006 Alan, The pics are long gone from your old thread.How has the FE worked out for you?I also thought there was a need for a longer hose but,would prefer some kind of adjustable tip versus having to stop and change tips.How much air(psi) does it take to charge them? If I can get these to work,I can likely get at least 2 more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
One Tough Pressure 580 Report post Posted January 18, 2006 I am limited in the air dept, so was never able to get a full charge. It worked well for spraying the driveway and sure beats a pump up. My new project is a shurflo, just need to get a tank and some hose for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
