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 sight feed or gravity feed cup. And that's a game changer when spraying today's uh heavy body grain filling primers. I like HVLP sprayers a lot more than airless sprayers because of the greater transfer rate. You typically get a a transfer rate of 40 to 50% greater from your gun to your substrate than you do airless sprayers. A couple of features I absolutely love about the Apollo Precision 6 Pro is the digital readout. I know exactly the PSI I'm spraying at the gun and also the power down feature. It has a power down feature. When you release the trigger, approximately 3 seconds later, the unit powers down, but an internal fan continues to blow inside and cool off the unit. 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 C siphon feed cup. Whenever I'm at the job site spraying kitchen cabinets, I'm typically using my two C 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 spray kick plates and I can get inside the kitchen cabinets with ease and efficiency. That's my setup when it comes to spraying kitchen cabinets and refinishing
