Does anyone use one of these and know where I can buy one for painting the garden walls (a hard job with a brush)? Even though probably have to water down the paint, it would make it much easier.

You can buy these at any of the large DIY shops in the South, or you could try Marshals.

A lot of the Yapi markets have Marshalls written up outside, so which one is actually Marshalls??

None of 'em!

'Marshalls' is the name of a manufacturer of paint and other decorating materials, not the name of a retailer.

The large Marshals on the left coming into Girne past Lemar.

I have seen draper paint sprayers in Josef paralik in karakum.

has anyone used one? wondered if they were any good?

I have a Black and Decker electric paint sprayer, whilst it is suitable for spraying garden fences etc I don't think it would be suitable for painting walls as you would have to thin the paint so much it would be ineffective. However I brought from the UK a Wagner airless paint sprayer (£100 second hand on ebay), which does the job perfectly. Whilst they are quite common in the UK with tradesman they are not in use here (too my knowledge). To give you an example my neighbor says it used to take about 2 days to paint his very large wall which was difficult as he had to use a brush to get into all the crevices etc With the airless paint sprayer it took me just over two hours, however on the down side it takes another hour too make sure the equipment is clear of paint internally

I did have an electric 'impulse type' spray gun and it was useless! Not sure whether it was a Draper or not though....

Thank you for info re Marshalls, I was aware of it being paint, hence the question re shop. I know Paraluk so will have a look I used a sprayer in UK and it was a godsend so think it will be here re lumpy garden walls! Maybe not Draper though ...
