What happens here

Recognize when your paint sprayer starts "sucking air" because the paint level in your bucket (e.g., 5-gallon, gallon, or quart size) has become too low. This usually happens when only about half a gallon of paint or less remains. Sucking air can lead to inconsistent spray patterns and potential damage to the sprayer's pump.

Goal: Understand when the paint level is critically low for efficient sprayer operation.

The thing started sucking air. I've got, you know, maybe a half a gallon of paint in there
