those same common um concerns and that is it's a lot more complicated and wow is it going to be really tough for me to learn this and I think uh as you found out once you kind of understand the way it works and that it really is very simple to get them and to to use those controls to your advantage yeah it I mean it it just took me you know just a little bit of time I mean I I would think you know or say probably took me about like a week you know I was working you know spraying Furniture in a booth and I just committed myself to you know learning it and figuring it out and I'm so glad I did cuz it's actually simpler and easier than an aess sprayer and what's interesting is you know airless sprayers you know one of the biggest fears with airless sprayers is overspray and that's you know in other countries and southern Europe everybody's afraid of overspray some of the major manufacturers have tried tried to you know tackle that problem by creating uh low pressure tips and those low press tips are running at 800 to 1,000 PSI and that is low compared to what you know we used to run them at like 2200 to 2800 PSI the Apollo I'm typically running at 6.5 PSI right so I mean we're talking massive difference night and day and so you just don't have the overspray problems you don't have you know the dust on the ground in the booth I think it's incredible I've been painting you know in my booth now you know pretty consistently for the last 3 months and I vacuumed my booth one time and and I think with if I was doing the exact same thing with an airless sprayer I'd be vacuuming the booth like every two days and I got to say it's like you know once you know I was committed to you know getting back to an hvop it's been uh you know simple and easy so absolutely glad that I've made that transition back to hlp spr so yeah I mean basically uh we were um talking earlier about uh how you went through all of this process and that and I think one of the greatest things that you now have is that that knowledge coming from heiress and going at hlp going through those frustrations that other uh people have done as well and now your audience can benefit from that right and so instead of uh it taking them a week or two like it did you to to learn the system now you've got the knowledge coming right from from Chris himself who's gone through that process and can help you and walk you through the because he understands where you're coming from and he understands the frustrations and…
