The Titan FlexSpray Handheld (model 0524093) is a corded 120 V handheld sprayer with a 1 qt stainless steel cup. Its JetForce variable-speed turbine atomizes the coating, and two twist-on front ends cover heavy coatings such as latex (FlexFinish) and stains and lacquers (FineFinish). It sprays water-based and solvent-based coatings.
What the FlexSpray Handheld is
The FlexSpray Handheld is a spray gun with the turbine, the cup and the controls built into one unit you carry. Titan lists it as model 0524093 (also written 524093). It plugs into 120 V, holds coating in a 1 qt stainless steel cup, and has a maximum delivery of 0.20 gpm. It sprays water-based and solvent-based coatings.
There is no pump, hose or cart to set up, which is what separates it from the airless and air-assisted systems in Titan's fine finish line. The trade-off is volume: a 1 qt cup and 0.20 gpm suit finishing and detail work in modest amounts, not a whole building. Titan does make a cordless version, the FlexSpray Pro 18V; it is a separate model, covered below.
The JetForce turbine
JetForce is Titan's name for the variable-speed turbine inside the handheld. Titan says it is powerful enough to spray unthinned latex, which is the main selling point of the design.
At launch, Titan made three claims about the design. It said the handheld has more than 4,000 quarts of paint life, that it lasts 10 times as long as other hand-held sprayers, and that wear parts such as pistons, cylinders and prime valves are non-existent. Those are Titan's statements from its launch announcement, and we have no service-life figure of our own to add. Taken at Titan's word, the last claim has a plain meaning for a parts buyer: there is no piston pump here, so the packing, piston and valve parts that wear on an airless sprayer are not part of this design. The consumable parts on the diagram are seals, filters, needle kits and nozzles instead.
FlexFinish and FineFinish front ends
The front end is the part of the gun that holds the needle, nozzle and air cap, and the handheld comes with two of them. Titan describes them this way:
- FlexFinish (white): for heavier coatings such as latex, enamel and acrylic, with the speed of a 413 tip and minimal overspray.
- FineFinish (red): for stains, lacquers and urethanes, where you want precise control.
The Quick Change System swaps them with a twist. Titan also says the front ends are sealed and can store paint. The matching consumables are separate parts on the site: the 0529245 Flex Finish needle kit (white) and the 0529246 Fine Finish front end needle kit (red) for the needles, and the 0529910 fluid nozzle for the Flex Finish end.
What it will and will not do
Titan lists both water-based and solvent-based coatings. The cleaning agent follows the coating: the manual says warm soapy water for latex and mineral spirits for oil-based coatings. Never clean the nozzle or air holes with a sharp metal object. Quick-drying or two-component materials need cleaning before they cure in the gun.
The manual's list of causes for little or no flow is short and cheap to check: a clogged nozzle, a clogged or loose suction tube, a flow setting that is too low, or insufficient pressure build-up in the container. Work through those before you buy anything.
It is not a high-volume tool. A maximum delivery of 0.20 gpm and a 1 qt cup mean refilling often on large surfaces. For production work, look at the airless and air-assisted systems instead.
Corded model versus the Pro 18V
The FlexSpray Pro 18V (2443773B) is a separate, cordless model on 18V batteries. It has its own front ends, named FlexFinish Pro and FineFinish Pro. The parts on the site's FlexSpray Handheld pages are for the corded model, so do not assume a corded-model part fits the Pro 18V. Call (713) 931-0006 with your model and serial number if you are unsure which one you have.
Parts, manual and next step
Parts are ordered from the diagram: open the page, find the numbered callout and add the part. Two pages cover this handheld. The FlexSpray Handheld parts list has 25 parts, from the gun body and air cap to the seals, filters and container. The accessories page has nine more, including needle kits, valve seals and suction tube filters. The FlexSpray series page is the parent category. The manual is on the manuals page.

The Short Version
The FlexSpray Handheld is a corded, turbine-driven gun with a 1 qt cup, two front ends and no pump to service. It suits finishing and detail work in modest volumes. Order from the FlexSpray Handheld parts list, and confirm by phone before you assume a part fits the Pro 18V.
