Evening,
I've just got an airless sprayer for a reno project (GXFF).
I've already got 30L of Dulux wall and ceiling paint which isn't supposed to be sprayed (according to the spec).
Question is - what will happen if I do spray it?!
Was going to water it down a little 10% and go for it....
Cheers

That's why.
Not supposed to stir it as it thins. Skill builder on YouTube visited Dulux with trade vs retail paints.
I can't answer to what will happen however I've seen internet posts of people spraying retail paints.
Getting tails and not atomising properly maybe?
If you add a splash of water and give it a mix. Stick a veg bag in hooper to catch lumps or bits.
Try it through sprayer
