Airless Spraying SOLO: Painting a House

What happens here

The presenter introduces the project: painting a large house exterior using an airless sprayer, specifically a TriTech T5 model. He highlights the use of a dual-head tip extension for increased speed. He mentions that he previously painted the garage doors and gables without straining the paint, which led to issues like spitting, so this time he will strain the paint. The paint being used is Glidden Premium Exterior Paint and Primer.

Goal: Understand the project scope, equipment, and paint being used.

Tools and materials

  • Paint Bucket Strainer — Straining paint to remove impurities
  • TriTech T5 Airless Sprayer TriTech — Applying paint to the house exterior
