What happens here

When spraying ceilings, it is critical to aim the spray pattern across the direction you will be looking into the room. This technique helps to minimize the appearance of lap marks. Select a suitable spray tip, such as a Titan HEA tip, which is ideal for ceilings due to its ability to produce a feathered edge and operate effectively at lower pressures. To ensure precise pressure, attach a Titan HEA gauge to the spray gun. Aim for a pressure range of 800-1000 PSI at the gun for optimal results and to prevent hard edges or 'fingering' in the paint finish.

Goal: Prepare the airless sprayer and understand the correct technique for even paint application.
