What happens here
The video starts with the sprayer already in operation, implying this setup was completed beforehand. To prepare the paint sprayer, first, ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred and mixed. If required by the paint or sprayer manufacturer, thin the paint to the recommended consistency. Next, fill the sprayer's paint cup with the prepared exterior paint. Prime the sprayer by following the manufacturer's instructions, which typically involves circulating paint through the system to remove air and achieve a steady spray pattern. This step is crucial for consistent paint application.
Goal: Load paint and ready the sprayer for application
