How Pros Paint Exteriors Flawlessly With an Airless Sprayer
What happens here
Maintain a consistent 50% overlap with each pass of the paint sprayer. This means that half of the current spray pattern should cover the area already painted by the previous pass. This technique is essential for achieving proper mill thickness, which is critical for the paint's durability, appearance, and longevity. Avoid merely brushing the edge of the previous pass, as this will lead to uneven coating and potential durability issues.
Goal: To ensure even paint distribution and achieve the correct mill thickness for a durable and uniform finish, each spray pass should overlap the previous one by 50%.
