Is Airless Spraying Worth it?

What happens here

Mask off all ceilings, doors, and windows to prepare for spraying. Use Frog Tape and 9-inch paper along baseboards and trim where walls meet hardwood floors. Windows should be covered with 3M 72-inch masking film. Doors intended for spraying can be set up by screwing them together with stir sticks, offering an alternative to plastic door hangers.

Goal: Protect surfaces not to be painted from overspray.

  • 9-inch Paper — Protecting floors and walls adjacent to areas being sprayed
  • Frog Tape FrogTape — Masking precise lines along trim and floors
