How To Paint a DECK the Right Way!

What happens here

Responding to a question about using antifreeze, Chris explains its crucial role in protecting airless paint sprayers during winter. He highlights that freezing temperatures can severely damage internal components, particularly the transducer, which is costly to repair. Antifreeze prevents freezing, allowing the sprayer to remain functional even when working in cold conditions (10-20 degrees Fahrenheit) or storing it in unheated environments. He recommends checking out an article on his website, idahopainter.com, for a detailed comparison of antifreeze versus pump armor products.

Goal: Antifreeze is essential for preventing airless paint sprayers from freezing in cold weather, protecting critical components and ensuring functionality.

properly cleaned properly so why antifreeze because you don't want it to breathe it's a Gibbs freezing then that is zooks antifreeze it's that's exactly right isolate or freeze but it's a here's and what is he even talking about what he's talking about is the react pump sitting down here at espares putting antifreeze in your airless sprayer xenon in wintertime if they freeze one of the things you'll ruin the very first is a transducer so if your transducer is bad after the wintertime your pop probably froze put antifreeze in it and especially if you're working during the winter because we would have a minute we would drive to a location to paint it's like 10 degrees 20 degrees outside this rain would literally freeze by the time we got to the location and we couldn't even spray interiors until it saw out so antifreeze even if you are storing them in the location but I have an article I wrote go check it out it's on my website and it's about you know why I use antifreeze versus like pump armor and some of those other products out there that are really expensive I just think you need to look at your pumps and and know that they are antifreeze they don't like freezing I use antifreeze specifically because it's significantly cheaper than pump armor significantly in antifreeze in Palm Harbor if you read my articles the same thing Tory Stansberry ass
