DIY 3 Quick Tips / Power Rollers!

What happens here

When using an airless sprayer to feed paint directly to a roller, finding the correct pressure setting is vital. The speaker recommends a 'sweet spot' of around 400 PSI (pounds per square inch). Using a lower pressure pump like the Titan 440 is suitable, as higher-pressure pumps are not necessary. If the pressure is set too high, an excessive amount of paint will be delivered to the roller, leading to paint spilling off the roller's nap and potentially creating a mess or an uneven finish. Maintaining 400 PSI ensures a controlled and efficient paint flow.

Goal: Adjust the airless spray pressure for roller feed to an optimal 400 PSI to ensure even paint distribution and prevent paint spilling.

another tip is that airless spray pressure I found the sweet spot running my strainer right around 400 psi use the time before 40 that's a small bump you don't leave anything large these are very convenient to move around nice small the 400 psi is all you need you have too much pressure coming out you're getting too much pain here and you could have paid spilling off your lower or nap so don't run too much pressure I like 400 psi another thing is is Titan
