The Dipless Brush Staining a Fence | Tools For Painters

What happens here

The presenter discusses the technical aspects of using the airless sprayer with the Dipless Brush. He is currently using a Titan HEA 311 tip, which is a low-pressure tip, and running his airless sprayer at approximately 1000 PSI. He explains that the tip size and pressure directly influence the amount of product sprayed. He notes that while this brush method might not be faster than a dedicated airless sprayer, it significantly reduces the risk of overspray, which is a major concern when working near other property or delicate areas, especially with oil-based products.

Goal: Understand how to select and adjust the spray tip and pressure for optimal stain application.

  • Airless Sprayer Paint Life Supply Co — Providing pressurized stain to the Dipless Brush
  • Titan HEA 311 Tip Titan — Controlling the spray pattern and flow rate of the stain
