I'm coloring my house siding t11 with Olympic spot color.? I was told not to use a paint sprayer wagner power what would my options other than roller and brush?
Although not at all a fan of Wagner products, they have evolved and improved somewhat, and answer two is correct in the suggestion of thinning.
I agree with answer 1 sprayer pump, other than this is not consistent, and in your case, could be a challenge, possession of 12 pounds more, on a scale, high-paint, and trying to maintain the pressure at the pump at the same time.
In all cases you have to lighten the stain, if it is thicker than latex, which I often sprayed with a Wagner, and you can still have areas on the T-111, where a brush could be used to cut IN, or a foam roller. Certainly too, the application process will be the same as painting, masking windows, etc., drops on plants, over concrete, etc., and now the nozzle to clean the entire work will be discussed.

Just my two "sense"
Best also do a test in a region not so remarkable, if possible, to judge model, volume, technique, even coverage, etc.
Reply crickets is a good option ... sprayer is relatively cheap ... around $ 20 ... but for a vertical surface a bit useless ... I do not know who told you not to use a Wagner ... I have and it works well ... the stain has to be clarified somewhat diminished, but will work in collaboration with the Wagner.
You receive two (what are they called ... to go inside the nozzle) for a paint and the other for staining. Its been a while ... but I think it is about 1 / 2 qt thinner gallon.
You can use a hand pump sprayer. The kind you use to spray herbicides, etc.
