Spray Techniques Using An Airless Sprayer | Home Improvement Painting

What happens here

Before beginning to spray, the painter prepares the area. This involves bending down and removing what appears to be a paint-covered piece of plastic or masking from the ground around the bushes. He then picks up the spray gun, which is connected to the airless sprayer unit. He performs a quick test spray on the ground or a piece of masking to ensure proper function and spray pattern before applying paint to the house.

Goal: Prepare the immediate workspace and verify equipment function
