For me the easiest way to clean out the ultra airless pump when shooting latex is in the sink. You can use the cup but this is a lot faster and simpler. I wouldn’t get it in the motor. The pump section is impervious to water. I’ve had it all apart and I’m not worried about this. Keep the water pressure low and you’re good. If you aren’t comfortable don’t do it. I’ve had it in a bucket of water up to the motor before. So I’m ok doing it. The pump is replaceable as well. I keep the motor a little higher so water runs out the front.
