Apply Paint with Proper Technique

What happens here

When applying paint, remember the cardinal rule of spray painting: never start or stop spraying on the door itself. Begin your spray pass off the edge of the door, move across the entire length in a smooth, consistent motion, and release the trigger only once the gun is off the opposite edge of the door. This technique prevents paint build-up at the start and end of each pass, which can lead to runs or heavier coats. Maintain an even distance and speed for consistent coverage. For doors with features like raised or lowered panels, maintain constant awareness of your spray angle and coverage to ensure these areas are adequately coated without overspray or missed spots. Apply multiple thin passes rather than one thick coat, allowing proper drying time between coats as per paint manufacturer instructions.

Goal: Apply paint evenly and smoothly to the door using correct spray gun technique.
