What happens here
Don your personal protective equipment, including a respirator mask and gloves, to protect against paint fumes and skin contact. Hold the HVLP spray gun at a consistent distance from the cabinet door, typically 6-8 inches, and maintain a consistent, steady movement across the surface. Apply the paint in even, overlapping passes (e.g., 50% overlap) to ensure complete and uniform coverage. Begin each pass before the workpiece and continue past it, releasing the trigger between passes to avoid paint buildup at the edges. Spray all edges and sides first, then the flat surfaces. Utilize the rotating stand to easily access different angles of the cabinet door without touching the freshly painted surface.
Goal: Apply an even and smooth finish coat of paint to the cabinet door.
