SPRAYING a House Exterior with an Airless Sprayer!

What happens here

The video concludes with a summary of the work accomplished and insights into painting techniques. The presenter reiterates that all high-peak soffits and dormers are complete. He clarifies that trim is typically brush-rolled, while the body of the house is sprayed. He explains that spraying paint is faster but doesn't promote adhesion or penetration as well as brushing and rolling do. He also mentions when backrolling is necessary, particularly for siding, but not for smooth surfaces like metal garage doors.

Goal: Summarize completed work and understand optimal painting techniques

all right we are all done with day three I got what I what I set out to do today and I wanted to get all the soffits above all these high peaks done I wanted to get the dormers done very difficult install ladder jacks all over the roof where I can get on the roof with different means use a six-foot ladder one of the ladder jacks extension ladders so I got everything done and accomplished a little bit sooner than I thought I know somebody might have some questions you know where do you spray versus where do you brush and roll I typically always rush to roll all the trim and the body of the house I spray the body spray on as a means to getting on paint a lot faster it doesn't promote adhesion and penetration like brushing and rolling does so you definitely wanna brush and roll your fascia into trim it's gonna withstand you know the weather it's gonna bond better but the body you want to get the body on quickly it's large expanses but even something like this a metal garage door like this doesn't have to be back rolled because you don't have to promote you and heat on something like that because it's metal so you don't have to back roll that on the siding there are places when I'm spraying I'm gonna be back rolling them before I spray and not half price rate after I sprayed I found a few places that needs to be hit back rolled up on these high areas where I didn't have the latter jacks I didn't do any prepping until I got up there once I got the ladder Jack's set I did my prep work I did my caulking my back rolling and then my spray and so it's all done now and we're gonna come back for day four now the hard part is done all that really difficult ladder work is done
