What happens here

This video provides an overview of a professional painter's High Volume Low Pressure (HVLP) spray painting setup for kitchen cabinets and furniture refinishing. It highlights the advantages of using an HVLP system, specifically the Apollo Precision 6 Pro HVLP sprayer, including the ability to spray heavy-bodied primers without thinning, and its superior transfer rate compared to airless sprayers. The video also details two different configurations for the spray gun: a 1-quart siphon feed cup for spray booth work and a 2-quart remote pot for on-site jobs, explaining the benefits of each for specific applications.

So, my setup when it comes to spraying kitchen cabinets and refinishing furniture starts off with my Apollo Precision 6 Pro HVLP sprayer. This is a six-stage turbine sprayer, which means I don't ever have to thin my products anymore when I'm running it out of my siphon feed or the gravity feed cup. And that's a game-changer when spraying today's uh heavy-bodied grain-filling primers. I like HVLP sprayers a lot more than airless sprayers because of the greater transfer rate. You typically get a transfer rate of 40 to 50% greater from your gun to your substrate than you do airless sprayers. So, when I'm spraying in my spray booth, I typically pair my system with the Black Edition 7700 Atomizer Gun, and I spray out of a 1-qt siphon feed cup. Whenever I'm at the job site spraying kitchen cabinets, I'm typically using my 2-qt remote pot and hooked to my gun with an air hose and material feed hose. That way, I don't have a cup attached, so I can invert my gun, I can spray kick backs, spray kick plates, and I can get inside the kitchen cabinets with ease and efficiency.
