Spraying interior ceilings. Painting Ceilings With An Airless Paint Sprayer

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Assemble the paint sprayer and attach the extended wands to the spray gun. For optimal ceiling coverage and a single-coat application, select a Graco 621 tip. This tip provides a wider fan pattern, allowing for faster coverage. Connect the spray gun with the extended wands to a Graco 695 sprayer. Adjust the sprayer's pressure to approximately 3/4 of its maximum, which the presenter indicates is around the '2 o'clock' mark on the pressure dial, equating to roughly 2200 PSI. This pressure ensures good atomization and coverage without excessive overspray.

Goal: Configure the sprayer for efficient and effective ceiling painting

What they say

I'm actually spraying these ceilings. I'm using a 621 tip. I want a wider uh fan pattern so I can cover more area faster. And I got a larger tip size or size so I can coat it all in one in one coat. I want to do this only in one coat. So I have to do this looking overhead again and spray and sealing again. It's a little bit hard on your neck spraying. So I want to do it in one coat. So a Graco 621 tip, two extension wands, and we got our Graco 695 sprayer hooked up and it's about 3/4 pressure. And we're spraying a Treasure Valley
