What happens here

Use painter's tape and plastic sheeting to mask off all adjacent surfaces, flooring, and non-painted elements to protect them from overspray. Prepare your paint sprayer (e.g., Wagner Flexio 5000) by diluting the paint (e.g., Sherwin Williams Frosted White paint and primer in one) with about 10% water for optimal flow. Apply 3-4 thin, even coats of paint, allowing adequate drying time between coats. Use smooth, consistent passes with the sprayer to avoid drips and ensure full coverage.

Goal: Mask off the surrounding areas and apply paint and primer to the drywall of the under-stair bar using a paint sprayer for a smooth, even finish.

the hard way after the texture was done I allowed the drywall compound to dry an extra 12 to 24 hours before painting it to apply the paint I'm using a Wagner Fleck co 5000 sprayer and I'm using a color called frosty white paint and primer from Sherman Williams now I found that in order to shoot the paint comfortably I had to dilute it with about ten percent water in order to shoot it through the spirit the way I felt comfortable now I'm sure a lot of people gonna be wondering what I think of the sprayer as an organization freak I really love how the flexi 5000 comes all packed and built into the case ready it stores the sprayer the guns the hoses the built-in blower and the power cables all inside of it and if that's an organization I don't know what is and if you're wondering about overspray like anybody would with a sprayer I was able to keep it to an absolute minimum with adequate slow regulation and obviously floor protection after spraying down three to four coats of paint while I was drying it was a perfect time to get started on the cabinet build week
