What happens here

The presenter moves into a spray booth (The PaintLine PSDR Series) and prepares to spray a cabinet door. He advises new users of HVLP systems to set the pressure on the machine (initially shown at 6.0 PSI, later adjusted to 4.5 PSI for glaze) and to back out the material flow on the gun. He turns on the HVLP sprayer and the spray booth ventilation. He applies a full coat of the black breakaway glaze to the cabinet door, ensuring good coverage without aiming for a perfect fine finish, as it will be sanded later. He demonstrates spraying a flat-lying door on a 'Spray Twirly' stand (from PaintLine).

Goal: This step involves setting up the HVLP sprayer and spray booth, then applying a uniform coat of breakaway glaze to a cabinet door, preparing it for the distressing process.
