What happens here

Once the sprayer is thoroughly flushed with clean water, prepare it for storage by running antifreeze through the system. Empty the dirty water bucket and fill it with a mixture of antifreeze (auto or RV type) and water (50/50 dilution). Drop the intake tube into the antifreeze mixture. Run the antifreeze through the gun first until it emerges, then switch to the prime tube and run it until antifreeze also comes out there. This protects the internal components from freezing and corrosion.

Goal: Replace the remaining clean water in the system with antifreeze to prevent freezing and corrosion during storage.

Once I see the antifreeze coming through, it's all good to go. That's the
