How to Spray a Door Jamb Like a Pro (No Drips or Runs!) | Airless Sprayer Tutorial
What happens here
The video begins with the presenter introducing the goal of spraying door jambs using an airless paint sprayer. He immediately details his specific setup: an airless paint sprayer gun equipped with a 6-inch extension and a unique 'Fan Pivot' accessory. The Fan Pivot allows the spray tip to rotate 90 degrees with a simple finger movement, offering versatility for various angles. He specifies using a TriTech 510 Fine Finish tip, explaining that while a 310 tip creates a 6-inch fan, the 510 tip produces a wider 10-inch fan. This wider pattern is chosen for efficiency on larger trim like door jambs and baseboards, allowing for faster coverage with fewer passes, even if it might result in slightly more overspray. He also states his preference for a two-finger spray gun for better control compared to four-finger guns, which he finds less stable. The airless sprayer used is a TriTech T5, and the paint is Sherwin Williams Scuff-Tuff, with the pressure set around 2200 PSI, which he identifies as optimal for trim spraying to achieve a smooth finish.
