Episode 35 is here. In this episode of the U Spray Podcast, Mitch and Toddy break down diaphragm vs. piston pumps, why hydraulic systems matter, the power behind the SGC3000 "beast", and what makes our new low-pressure spray tips different. The boys unpack the real performance differences between pump systems, how fuel efficiency is affected on-site, and why pressure consistency plays a massive role in achieving better finishes. If you're serious about your spray setup and want to properly understand what separates these machines in the real world, this one's worth your time.

Today's Takeaways

• Diaphragm and piston pumps operate very differently in how they deliver pressure

• Hydraulic systems allow machines to run efficiently at lower revs

• The SGC3000 is built for power, reliability, and demanding jobs
