***THE WINNER IS RACHEL CORONA***
I recently helped my brother and sister-in-law paint their basement. They are getting ready to welcome baby #3 and wanted to get as much done as possible before he arrives. My brother started out doing it the old fashioned way with a brush and only got as far as one little under the stairs closet before getting discouraged that it was taking so long. Then they were going to rent a paint sprayer to do the trim, doors and closet shelves and then roll on the paint color for the walls. I suggested that I contact HomeRight and see if they could send a sprayer out. They sent us the Finish Max!
My brother had a contractor friend come and hang the dry wall and trim. And then to save money he decided to paint it himself. This is what we started with.
There is a really big family room, a "man cave", a bedroom, and a bathroom. And between them all there are five closets, one of which is HUGE with loads of shelves. I didn't get a picture because of the lack of natural light in there. If we would have painted all those shelves in all those closets with a brush or even a roller we would have been at it for weeks.
The Finish Max sprayer is mostly used for furniture so it is not meant for walls (HomeRight offers a variety of sprayers for all different purposes). We used the HomeRight Paint Stick for the walls in the rooms but we went ahead and primed and painted the walls inside the closets with the sprayer. The Finish Max can also be used with clear sealer, polyurethane, stain and varnish.
I showed up to paint the first day and my brother and I were wearing the same shirt! Out of the 25+ painting shirts I have the the tons of t-shirts he has, what are the odds?
I LOVED it. You guys I probably embarrassed myself in front of them because I couldn't stop squealing and professing my undying love for this machine.
Things I loved:
- The over spray was very minimal.
- The finish was baby butt smooth. I seriously couldn't get over it.
- It was very user friendly. Easy to use and easy to clean up.
- It didn't "spit" like other sprayers I have used in the past
- Because there was very little over spray, the paint went really far. We didn't use a ton of paint considering that we painted an entire basement.
Things to know:
- We mixed it with water according to the "enamel" suggestion since it didn't list "latex" or any other type of paint. It worked just fine.
- You will need to stop occasionally to clean the nozzle. I just used my finger under my shirt to wipe it clean. you could use a slightly damp rag as well.
- You may have a strong desire to name it and sleep with it next to your bed. It may become your new BFF.
I was super impressed with how the doors at my brother's house turned out. Flawless.
My doors are in desperate need of a new coat of paint and I bought a new kitchen door this weekend. So guess what I am going to do this week?
And here is their basement now! They still have some touch ups but for the most part they are ready to lay flooring this week.
I wish the picture of the trim showed more detail. It really doesn't do this justice at all.
So do you want one of your very own? Of course you do :)

All of the doors in my house need to be painted. What was once pure white has now become a dingy yellow. I'd love to make this job much easier with a paint sprayer. Thanks for the chance to win.
I can honestly say I would start at the front door. We are currently getting our house ready for sale. The front door needs some "makeup". Thanks for the chance to win.
I would paint all the interior doors in my house. They are all dark colored, and it is time to make them bright and white!
After 3 years in this house it is finally time to finish our basement! Hubby has never been home long enough to get a good start on it and since he is retiring it GAME ON! Not to mention we are working on outbuildings for our little spot of the Big Sky, once the snow stops again. ;-)
Thanks for the opportunity and awesome reviews on your site!
My foyer! It has really thick beams and the sprayer would nip it in the bud in no time! And doors! =)
Um, with a new home every single room needs a fresh coat! But really, the great room would have to be first. :)
I would paint my family room like tomorrow!
I just moved to a new house. I would paint my dinning room table to coordinate with the new walls.
The first thing I would paint is my kitchen cabinets! I want to add trim to them and the paint everything, this would make it so easy...
We're doing a major reno on the house we just bought, so I'll be painting every room in the house once it's finished. THIS would help out tremendously!!
Every single door in my house! : )
This is the one tool that would be all mine! I'd paint anything that doesn't move.
My garage door, my front door, ALL of the doors in my house...where does it end:)
Our picnic table is in need of a coat of paint!
We will be needing to finish a basement, and it will need to be painted. It looks like your painting went SO much easier with the sprayer!
We have a basement I'm painting sometime in the next few weeks (exposed joists = 3 times the normal surface area to paint). This would be amazing!
I'd love to give our fence a fresh coat!
I would finish painting the bathroom!
The doors! The house we bought has all off-white trim & doors, looks like 'smokers yellow' from the 80s!
My kids' bedroom door! We replaced it not long after we moved in (18 months ago) and it still hasn't been painted.
I would use the sprayer to paint my home's basement and my garage. I have been meaning to paint both for years!
I would paint my kids rooms! We moved into our house 2 years ago and they are still living with the previous owner's colors. Not fun! Thanks for the giveaway- this sprayer looks amazing!
We have an unfinished wood dresser in our room that has needed paint for years! I'd hit that up first.
i am working on turning a junk room into a crafting room so this would be awesome!!!
Oh I would paint this shelf I've had sitting in my garage so it could look as smooth as possible. Would LOVE to have one of these!!!!!
We TOTALLY need to finish the built-ins my husband recently built. Painting is the biggest PITA part of the project!!
I would help my daughter and son-in-law to paint their basement and their garage!
Our basement ceiling! This is the exact tool we need to lighten and brighten our basement!
We're going to start a major project in painting our kitchen cabinets and I'm hoping this would ease the pain!
This would be wonderful for painting my doors.
The first (of many!) thing I would paint is my front door!!! I know what color and even the decor I want to add! I NEED this! LOL
We need to paint some new interior doors as well as several rooms. We have a big list of painting projects to do this spring.
Our sons room! We're just about ready to start painting, this would make it go a lot quicker!
The entire house? LOL
We moved into a fixer upper and all the rooms need repainted, plus they need baseboards and trim in half the rooms.
I could definitely use this!
I would paint my kitchen at my new rental home. It needs an extreme makeover!
End tables in my living room. We're slowly piecing it all together and those tables need some love.
I would repaint my master bedroom as soon as possible!!
This couldn't have come at a better time! We are going to start painting soon, so I'm going to make sure to show my husband your results. It looks great!
The first thing I want paint is my toddler daughter's bedroom. I'm trying to make her room have a feminine, whimsical sort of theme, so the current paint cannot stay. That's just the beginning of a ton of paint projects for the coming months.
I'd love to try it out on my shutters... they are so difficult to paint with a brush!
My sister is going to be moving shortly to their first house, so this would get used a lot! :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I was just telling my husband that I want a sprayer! I have so many projects that I can use it on. I'm refinishing a bedside table for my sons room and some frames need painting.
I would paint our bedroom! I picked out a horrible color, but after all that work it's hard to start all over with a brush/roller!
My kitchen table!
Oh my goodness! I have been wanting a paint sprayer for so long now. The house we are in now was previously a rental and the doors are in great need of new paint. What a fun project for the hubby and me. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I think I would pain my half bath. I'm getting tired of the colors.
Oh man, do I want this! I hate painting trim and doors by hand!!!
I promised my son his room would be painted by Halloween...of last year. I'm painting it in two weeks. So I guess the first thing I would paint would be my daughters room. No promises made there yet. I learned the hard way.
What wouldn't I paint? Probably do that second coat of stain/sealer on my deck. It took me 3+ hours by hand, I'm sure the sprayer would be way faster and efficient.
I've been dying to get my hands on a good quality paint sprayer!!!! This one might just do the job.
I'd love to have one!!!! We'll be moving in a couple of weeks and the house could use some paint and refreshing.
The nursery :-) We are expecting our 3rd in August.
My wicker porch furniture!
Doors! So many doors!
I NEED this! Love the remodel!
I would start with our extra bedroom!
Ahhhh, I soooo need this!!! We are currently repainting our entire house, and have 8 doors to spray (front & back).
So many projects... we'd probably paint the garage first. It's so dingy and nasty.
Would love to have one. Lots of projects to accomplish!
I just refinished my dining room table and now I am getting ready to repaint the dining room so it looks as good as the table does! Having this sprayer would help immensely since I can only stand for so long since I had my knee surgery. Thanks for all your great ideas, processes and motivation.
Don't you just love using a paint sprayer? I used my father's for a glider rocker, but would love to have one of my own.
My guest room closet!
Oh, I could use this fabulous contraption right now; we have gutted our master bath & I plan on painting drywall soon.
How exciting! I would paint my living room and all of the doors in the house!
The cathedral ceilings in all our bedrooms need painting desperately!! I'd give it a challenge there.
I have so many painting projects planned... but I would probably start with a smaller job just to get used to it. I do have a couple lamps that need to be freshened up with some color, so that would probably be the first thing
We are planning to pain our kitchen cabinets this summer so this would be great!
The entire interior of my house could use painted, but I'd start with making my ceilings white! The ceilings are the same color as my walls and I think white ceilings would help brighten things up.
Also I have a question, What is the brand and name of the wall color used? I like it!
I am the world's slowest painter, so this would make such a difference for me!
Every door in our house totally needs to be painted. This bad boy would be a dream. :)
I would finish painting our laundry room walls/cabinets that have been half painted for months.
We are finishing our basement this summer and this would make it so much easier to paint it all!
I would go ga ga over this tool and nothing would be safe with me and it around!!!!! Hope I win!!!
All of our doors could use a refresh, and we're updating our floors so we'll have a lot of baseboard - would it work for that?? Thanks!
I desperately want a paint sprayer. I am going to be starting my basement soon and it would so come in handy.
What a great review. I would first use the Finish Max to help us paint the entry way of our home. It would get the job done easily and look professionally done. First impression of a warm welcome to others who enter into our home is what we want to convey. Thank you for the giveaway!
All the doors in my HOUSE.
Awesome giveaway!! THE DOORS!!!
I'm dying for one of these!

I would paint my bedroom!
Awesome! Love how everything turned out. I really need that sprayer! :-)

My kitchen cabinets!
I would LOVE this to paint my kitchen cabinets. Thanks!
I'd love to use the sprayer to stain my fence which needs a fresh coat of stain, but my interior doors could you it too. We still just have primer on the basement doors. This would be wonderful to use. Thank you for the opportunity to win it. :)
Oh, there are so many projects I would use it on - kitchen chairs, cabinets, closet doors, you name it :)
I have been looking for sprayer, I will certainly check these out! Thanks!
Our interior doors...awhile ago we decided to paint them glossy black. We've got some of them done but still have more to go.
I have so many painting projects I need to do that I don't know where I would start.
Our whole upstairs looks like your brother's basement...this would be SOOOO helpful!
So funny because we were debating renting a sprayer last week when I saw your post on Instagram. Looked it up and it has rave reviews (besides yours!) and is so affordable! Thanks for sharing!
I have a couple of bookcases I would paint!
I'm just about to hang sheetrock, trim and board & batten in a room I'm refinishing. Took quite a while to tear down all the plaster & lathe and rewire it, but it's totally worth it! Anyway, I'd definitely have plenty to use the sprayer on if I were to win! Thanks for the chance.
I would paint our backdoor first, and my daughters dresser! This looks amazing!
Built in drawers to go under a window seat
We recently purchased a new home... Which desperately needs a fresh coat of paint on all the doors and trim!!
a flawless finish! My exterior doors could use a coat badly!
I am planning on painting my entire upstairs. it is the last place I need to paint in our older home. The whole thing is covered in dark brown paneling! I painted over some a few years ago downstairs and it turned out great so next is the upstairs.
I HATE painting, so this would make my life soooo much easier!
I would so love one of these for all my furniture painting projects!

I would love to re-paint our downstairs.
I've wanted one of these jewels for over 2 years now. I have a home full of furniture that I want to paint so badly and I know this is the only way to do it so all the pieces will look nice once they are finished. Great job on the basement...can't imagine what it would have been like hand painting all those shelves...glad HomeRight came to your rescue. :)
Kitchen cabinets would be first!

I was just thinking this morning that I have an old video cabinet with hinged doors that I'd love to use as a craft supply cabinet, but it would need to be painted first. Yeah, right. Automatically put it on the "someday" list of jobs. This would be perfect for it! And then, there's my mother's house which really needs updating.
