Airless Spraying Tip Guards! Spraying with The Idaho Painter.

What happens here

The presenter, Chris Berry from Paint Life TV, introduces the topic of airless sprayer tip guards. He highlights a common question about the difference between G-thread 7/8" and F-thread 11/16" tip guards. He explains that these can be referred to by either letter or number and are interchangeable. He also mentions that almost all modern spray guns manufactured in the last 20 years, including various brands like Graco, Titan, DP Airless, and Spray Tech, come with a standard G-thread 7/8" connection.

Goal: The video begins with an introduction to the two primary thread types for airless sprayer tip guards: G-thread (7/8") and F-thread (11/16"). The presenter notes that most modern spray guns utilize the G-thread.
