PRIMING AND PAINTING WALLS Painting New Construction Sheet Rock Walls. Spraying new drywall

What happens here

Set up the airless paint sprayer in a well-ventilated area, preferably outside the immediate painting space, as demonstrated by the presenter in what appears to be a garage. The sprayer shown is a Titan 1140. Attach a 30-inch gun extension to the spray gun to increase reach, which is particularly helpful for ceilings and upper wall sections. Install a 1221 spray tip and set the pressure to approximately 2200 PSI for optimal primer application. Prepare about 30 gallons of PVA primer in 5-gallon buckets, ensuring the sprayer's intake hose is submerged in the primer.

Goal: Set up the airless paint sprayer with appropriate tip and pressure, and prepare the PVA primer

everything with a 30 inch extension. I'm also using a 1221 tip cuz I'm going to spray this thing and spray it fast. I'm going to spray the whole 2000 2300 ft of this house really fast.
