Spray Trim Like a PRO! Airless Sprayer Crash Course

What happens here

After priming with water, switch the intake tube from the water bucket to the paint bucket (ensure the paint is thoroughly stirred). Keep the prime hose in the waste bucket. Turn the sprayer 'on' and let it run until paint starts coming out of the prime hose. Once paint appears, flip the prime/spray switch from 'prime' to 'spray'. Adjust the pressure dial to approximately 2000 PSI, which is suitable for trim painting. Finally, spray the gun into the waste bucket until only paint, free of water, is coming out, ensuring the hose is fully loaded with paint.

in there so now this thing is ready to go it's just got water in it I can take this and drop this right into my paint I have my gallon of paint sitting in there and I have it in a five-gallon bucket so it won't easily spill over we have everything set up in an Outback paint station and that way if any oil leaks out of the sprayer or if any paint spills it's gonna be contained in our secondary containment it's not going to get on the floor we have drop cloths down to is even protection on top of that so the first thing you do is just you're gonna put your intake tube down right into your paint and I want to make sure my paint is stirred up right here and it is start up this is just white trim paint right here so now that is our intake tube that's gonna suck up paint right here you're just going to turn your on and off button off right here and I'm gonna turn it on I want my pressure just not all the way for I'm gonna turn it all the way down to off and then just turn it up just a little bit turn it on it'll start priming I forgot one thing to tell you it's on prime right here this is our prime switch right here right here in the horizontal position right here that is spray that will allow that the sprayer to turn it to spray to spray out the gun when it's in the vertical position like that that means it's priming sending paint through the prime tube in purging any air out so once you see paint coming out of your prime tube I flicked it to spray and now it's in the spray mode I can turn my pressure up I typically spray my trim around 200 psi and I know this is probably a complicated process but I got all kinds of videos explaining how to use airless sprayer so this is it gonna be good enough just this one time but it's ready to go now what I want to do make sure all my fittings are ready to go my pressure is set I'm gonna be spraying in about 2000 psi so I'm going to turn that up till it reaches 2000 about 2000 psi I'm gonna run all the water because I got my line right here there's water in the line or don't run all the water out of a line until I just get paid
