Airless Spraying The Right Way? Painting with an airless sprayer
What happens here
When performing a spray pass, aim to keep the trigger of the paint gun continuously pulled for the entire duration of the pass, rather than releasing and re-pulling it. Each time the trigger is released and pulled again, there is a risk of the gun 'spitting' paint, creating undesirable blotches or an uneven finish. Minimizing trigger releases ensures a smoother, more consistent flow of paint and reduces the chances of defects. If the gun does spit, immediately reverse the spray tip to clear any blockage, then resume spraying.
Goal: Keep the spray gun trigger pulled continuously during a pass to avoid spits and maintain a consistent paint flow.
