Restoring fences! #diy #charcoal
What happens here
With the equipment and stain prepared, and wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE) including protective suits, respirators, safety glasses, and gloves, two individuals proceed to spray the wooden fence. Position the airless sprayer gun perpendicular to the fence surface, maintaining a consistent distance (typically 10-12 inches) to ensure even coverage. Use smooth, overlapping passes (about 50% overlap) to avoid streaks and missed spots. One person is seen using a spray shield (a long pole with a flat head) to create clean edges and prevent overspray onto the ground or adjacent structures, especially along the bottom of the fence.
Goal: Efficiently apply stain to the fence using an airless sprayer
