A handheld electric airless that sprays unthinned paint and stain straight from the can at up to 1,500 PSI, and its FlexLiner bag lets you spray at any angle. Airless power means heavy overspray, so it suits fences and exteriors more than open interiors, the small cup forces frequent refills, and it costs more than most HVLP units.
Pros
- True airless power sprays unthinned paint and stain right from the can with no turbine haze
- FlexLiner bag system lets you spray at any angle, even upside down, and cuts cleanup mess
- Dual speed control drops to a slower rate for detail work like doors and furniture
Cons
- Airless spray creates heavy overspray, so it is best for fences, exteriors and garages, not open interiors
- The 32 oz cup and 2-gallons-or-less design mean lots of refills on large projects
- Costs more than most HVLP handhelds and the pump still needs a careful flush-out clean

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the DS in TrueCoat 360 DS mean?
- It refers to the dual-speed control, which lets you drop to a slower rate for detail work like doors and furniture instead of running at one fixed output. We do not have a verified spec sheet for the non-DS TrueCoat 360 on file, so we are not going to give you a feature-by-feature comparison we cannot stand behind - check Graco's current model page if the distinction decides your purchase.
- Can the TrueCoat 360 DS spray unthinned paint from the can?
- Yes. It is a true electric airless running up to 1,500 PSI, so it sprays unthinned paint and stain straight from the can with none of the haze you get from a turbine unit. There is no hose to manage - the whole thing is handheld and cup-fed.
- Is it suitable for interior rooms?
- Less so than for exteriors. Airless power means heavy overspray, which makes it best for fences, exteriors, garages and similar spaces rather than open interiors with furniture and finished floors nearby.
- How big a project can it handle before it becomes tedious?
- Not a large one. The 32 oz FlexLiner cup and the unit's 2-gallons-or-less design mean frequent refills, so it is matched to fences, furniture, trim, doors and small projects. On the plus side, the FlexLiner bag lets you spray at any angle, even upside down, and cuts cleanup mess - though the pump and tip still need a careful flush.
