Bought the remote 2 Quarts Canister sprayer from Harbor Freight for about
$69.00 + tax.
Used it to spray treatment on the fence & deck... works just fine. However
it depends on what job you want to use it on. It's listed as a primer grade
sprayer.
I wouldn't recommend ordering online because Harbor Freight has a spotty
track record. If you live near one or in a driveable distance, you are
better off picking it up. Since the bulk of the complaints that I've read
are that HF is very slow in shipping out orders.
