VERSATILE Painting Tools. Using a Clean Shot Valve.

What happens here

The co-presenter showcases the CleanShot's flexibility by bending it at a 20-30 degree angle. This allows him to spray lower sections of a wall, such as skirting or baseboards, by simply bending slightly at the waist instead of having to crouch or kneel. This ergonomic benefit is dubbed 'painting lazy,' as it conserves the painter's energy, allowing for longer, more comfortable work periods and reducing the risk of musculoskeletal fatigue.

Goal: This step demonstrates the CleanShot's ability to be angled, enabling painters to comfortably reach low areas without needing to fully bend, thus improving ergonomic efficiency.

Tools and materials

  • Graco CleanShot Shutoff Valve

more things than just remaining spins what i want to be able to do is i just like the idea of being able to give it like a 20 30 degree angle so let's show that crowd right there so why the heck did you just do that ah i see we go right so what we're talking about is the fact that that's a mini extension mark so when we spray we've got to come down we've really got to bend i'm all the way down here we're still getting a spit okay because the valve is at flush position i'm not interested at this point to reduce this bit that's not what i'm interested in i just want this ability to have less fatigue on my body and a little more speed it's just so much comfort you know and what i call that is painting lazy so what you're trying to do is just make it easier on yourself if you don't have to bend over farther you're just not going to fatigue your back you're not going to fatigue your knees you're going to be able to paint longer throughout the day i race bikes i want to be refreshed or have a lot more energy when i get done at the end of the day to go race at the end of the day so the less bending i have to do the less stooping i have to do the less fatigue my back is so again for me it's at 20 to
