SPRAYING a House Exterior with an Airless Sprayer!

What happens here

The painter demonstrates wearing gloves for safety when adjusting an extension ladder. He points out that the ropes on extension ladders can cause burns on bare hands when ratcheting the ladder up or down. Gloves prevent these burns and improve grip, making the process safer and more comfortable. He emphasizes that gloves keep hands cleaner, reducing the need for extensive scrubbing at the end of the day.

Goal: Protect hands during ladder adjustments and painting

okay I got another tip for you and it's wearing gloves I always talk about wearing gloves and I wear gloves for a lot of reasons but when you're working with extension ladders all day long these climbing ropes that are attached to these extension ladders ratcheting them up and down you can get burns on your hands that's never gonna be an issue and you can grip the Rope a lot in there so the Rope is gonna be sliding in my hand as it's going up and down and it doesn't actually burn or hurt my hand at all having gloves on so if you're painting an exterior it's definitely good idea to wear gloves the the guns spray guns sitting out in the Sun get hot they're easy um so that's you know you're not gonna burn your hands when you're grabbing the gun you know with gloves on also it helps grip the gun but there's just a lot of other reasons at the end of the day you're not gonna have as dirty of hands you know wearing gloves too and I don't like to have to sit there and just scrub all this paint and grime and stuff off my hands at the end of the day
