Latex is sprayed all the time here; but never in a one quart cup.

Using an air-spray (air compressor) setup, not HVLP?
What container or attachments do you use to get more than one quart of paint
to the spray gun?
Thanks,

Electric and airless.

A clean 30 gallon Rubbermaid trash barrel holds plenty of well mixed,
strained paint. Stick a hose in an go to town with the sprayer. d8=
If you really don't care about looks, just toss a gallon on the wall
and brush real fast or get some taggers to fix it up for you.

My original question was about pressure spray guns and latex. I'm looking for
a way to use the sprayer I pointed out
<http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=43760>
with latex paints.

IMHO, that spray gun will probably work OK. You'll need a reasonable
sized compressor to make it work. I'd guess it really uses more than 6
CFM...
