What happens here

Before spraying, prepare the door by inspecting it for any imperfections. For any white spots, crayon marks, or pin marks, apply a quick-drying primer like Seal Lock Primer. Ensure the area behind the door is masked off. To facilitate spraying both sides of the door without waiting for it to dry, place screw-on stir sticks on top of the door. These sticks will keep the door separated from the wall when it is flipped, preventing painted surfaces from touching.

Goal: Ready the door for painting with an airless sprayer.

This is part two of our series on how to use an airless sprayer. In this series, we're going to show you how to spray a door and a window. And the door we got ready set up here inside of a house. The door's got some white spawn spots on it. There's any areas that need to be primed. We use a product called Seal Lock Primer, and it's an alcohol-based primer, which dries really quick. We primed some spots on the door jamb. There was some crayon marks and some other pin marks on the door. We uh mask behind the door. We put a screw to stir stick on top of the door. That'll keep it away from the wall. So when we flip the door over, it will lean up against the wall from both sides. So the door is ready to spray. We got a Rackex 210 tip
