10+ Tips Spraying Ceilings. Painting a Ceiling FAST!

What happens here

Load the Glidden Professional ceiling paint into the airless sprayer. Ensure your respirator is worn. Attach two extensions to the spray gun to avoid excessive reaching and to maintain a comfortable spraying distance from the ceiling. Use a 619 HEA tip and set the sprayer pressure to approximately 900 PSI at the gun. Begin spraying the ceiling, moving across the direction you are looking into the room. Observe the paint's performance; in this case, the paint covers well and goes on heavily, but there is significant kickback or 'fallout' of paint particles onto the painter, indicating it's not ideal for spraying despite its other qualities. Release the trigger occasionally to allow the sprayer's pressure to rebuild, especially with larger tips, as continuous spraying can cause pressure drops.

Goal: Apply Glidden Professional ceiling paint and evaluate its spraying performance.
