Apply Paint Using a Spray Gun

What happens here

With the workspace prepared and PPE in place, the painter begins applying the paint (a medium grey-blue shade) to the cabinet frames. They are using a spray gun, likely an HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) sprayer, which provides a fine finish with reduced overspray. The technique involves holding the spray gun at a consistent distance (typically 6-10 inches) from the cabinet surface. The painter moves the gun in smooth, horizontal passes, overlapping each pass by about 50% to ensure even coverage and prevent streaks. The trigger is pulled before the pass starts and released just after the pass ends, avoiding paint build-up at the edges. The movement is consistent, without stopping mid-stroke, to prevent drips or runs. This application technique results in a smooth, factory-like finish.

Goal: Achieve a smooth, even coat of paint on cabinet frames without drips or runs.
