    Q
    Do you have replacement brass handles for the 2-3 gallon stainless sprayer?
    A

    We carry a variety of size replacement wands for Chapin sprayers which you can view by following the link below. The rule of thumb for most Chapin sprayers is to make sure if the handle is brass to get a brass wand/extension, and if plastic, match it to plastic. There are varying lengths and both straight and curved tip wands.

    Can this sprayer be used for indoor use as well as outdoor? What is the benefits or differences between the Chaplin plastic 2 gallon vs. the stainless steel 2 gallon sprayers?

    The Chapin Stainless Steel 2 Gallon Sprayer (#1253) and plastic 2 gallon work the same. Mainly, it comes down to preference. Some say the stainless steele lasts longer.

    Q
    Is this Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) completly stainless top and bottom? What is the pickup tube made of?
    We are using oils that can damage plastic
    A

    The Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) is a stainless steel tank, poly barrel with a brass wand, but the tube inside is plastic.  We would recommend contacting Chapin first to confirm the type of oils you are going to use in the sprayer will not damage the seals or other parts.  Chapin can be reached at 1-800-444-3140.

    We do not recommend using bleach in the Chapin Stainless Steel 2 Gallon (1253) tank as it could damage the seals. The Chapin Industrial Poly Bleach Sprayer 1 gallon (20075) is the only one we have that is recommended for bleach at this time. You should contact Chapin directly to find the best sprayer for your needs, and also to learn the proper cleaning techniques when using bleach in the sprayer.

    Q
    Can I use the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) for 91% rubbing alcohol?
    A

    No, rubbing alcohol will likely corrode the gaskets and/or seals inside of the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) or any other metal sprayer.  You can use either the Chapin Acetone Promo Sprayer 2 Gal. (26127) or the Chapin Industrial Acetone Hand Sprayer 48 oz. (10027) for rubbing alcohol.

    Q
    Is there a very fine mist tip for the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gallon #1253?
    I have this sprayer and the adjustable tip on the spray setting is too much flow. Is there a tip that puts out a fine spray?
    A

    You could use the Chapin 4-way adjustable nozzle #6-4566 with the Chapin Stainless Steel 2 Gallon Sprayer #1253. That nozzle includes a light fan spray that you may find more appropriate for your needs.

    Q
    Do you have a nozzle tip for the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer (1253) that I could use to inject a termite solution into drilled concrete?
    A

    No, unfortunately, Chapin doesn't make nozzle tips fit for termite injection treatments. With your Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253), you can use the Chapin Brass Adjustable Nozzle (#6-6000). Use the pin stream setting to apply the chemical into the soil where you've drilled.

  • Asked by Wayne from Five Points, Alabama
    09/07/2021
    Q
    How do you reduce the pressure (psi) on the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) to treat for indoors mainly? I can't seem to adjust the spray pressure?
    A

    We have spoken with Chapin and they stated that the Chapin Stainless Steel Sprayer 2 Gal. (#1253) does not have a way to reduce how much water sprays from the tank. Typically, the more times you hand pump the sprayer, the harder the psi or spray will come out of the nozzle tip. If wanting a lesser psi while spraying, try reducing the number of times you pump the handle to build pressure in the tank,

    Please contact Chapin direclty for more technical questions and troubleshooting at 1-800-444-3140.
