anybody doing rod iron fences that they would use hlp sprayers and you know I have my reasons why I chose to go back to them and use them but can you just talk to my audience I mean um you've been in this business for almost your entire life and so you what's the benefit of an hvop sprayer over an airless sprayer the first thing that Apollo teaches um our customers is that there's really not one tool for everything so we do not out there telling you that the HVLP turbine system is the be all end all for every painting situation that you'll ever be in because that's absolutely not true if I wanted to spray the exterior of a house or uh that there's no way I'm going to do that with an HVLP turbine could I sure I mean I could um but it would take me 10 times longer and it just wouldn't be as efficient in that in efficient in the way of time really I think it's applying uh the right type of equipment to the right job and like you said you know certain types of uh finishing refinishing particularly like onsite work and things like that where you're doing something in somebody's home and you really want to be able to control the overspray and exactly and know exactly where that's going besides the fact that you're wasting that pain if it sticks to the you know the the Hardy Board and all the other your your masking but it's more about the environment and everything and the um reduction of your overall uh paint and the and the um the use uh or the experience really when you're using it right the benefits of the HVLP are the portability um the low overspray and so which what most people know right um and so that's why so you want to keep your projects to things that are realistic the the paints that you can spray out there some paints that are just not designed to spray through a turbine system they need to have an aess system to to spray them and so knowing your paints and knowing really what the job what how the tools work properly both an aess and an HVLP you that way you can then as a painter you can position them in your business right and that way you go into a job you know you have both tools and the right tool for that particular job yeah I I think you know you touched on you know a big part of it the right tool for the job and and I think you know one of the reasons why you know I transferred back to you know HVLP spray and with um I kind of like migrated to spraying you know a lot of 2K poly you know products and you know with an airless sprayer I…
