VERSATILE Painting Tools. Using a Clean Shot Valve.

What happens here

The presenter highlights how the CleanShot helps when spraying ceilings. With a proper extension, it allows the painter to spray side-to-side, moving away from the overspray, which helps prevent paint from getting on the painter's face or body. This technique also provides better visibility of the surface being sprayed, ensuring even coverage and reducing misses. It allows for a precise 'trigger on, trigger off' technique on the wall, preventing unwanted paint on the ceilings. He notes that without such tools, an extension bar alone might still lead to spits or inadequate technique.

Goal: This step demonstrates how the CleanShot, especially with an extension, facilitates ceiling spraying by providing better control and visibility, effectively minimizing overspray and improving overall finish quality.

everywhere else so when we come down we'd have to be and again look we've got the holes in the way so that's pretty much going to stop us about a foot from the floor so we just give ourselves a little bit of a keep there so when we come down elbow up we're coming down we've got nice transfer but look it's just yeah it's in our brain everything yeah that's absolutely amazing so you use it he uses it in quite a few different ways than i use it so that's pretty cool the point is with a clean shot okay is i'm just going to cheat a little bit i'm not going to remove this one so what we're going to do is add an extension bar okay but what you would normally do you would have the extension bar on the gun yeah correct and then what you would do is you would add the clean shot at the at the end yes okay so therefore that would reduce the spit when spraying us in correct okay there's this quite a few elements the longer the bar that extra weight on here it just it just it just gets more and more fatigue my suggestion to you yes would be to go to the gym i'm always working well saying that sorry that is unfair good right what we do is again because we know that we're going to get spit because it's an extension bar we know we're going to get spit absolutely if i don't want spit on the ceilings trigger on trigger off on the wall the longer the extension bar because the bigger the spin so i'm the only way to not get spits at all is you have absolutely nothing on the gun yeah so maybe you'll still maybe get a stick again if i was spraying the ceiling i'd have to spray ceiling here instantly my neck my back and if if i'm only starting out and i'm getting a little bit of overspray because maybe the extension bar is not quite big enough or my technique isn't quite good enough for the pressure i'm going to get overspray and that'll just spread away straighten my eyes okay and this is if this is an eye opener sorry no cliche if i'm spraying i've got spray seasoning like this the easiest way to protect my eyes as well is to use the clean shot give it a 60 70 degree step forward for me i always spray a ceiling side to side and the reason being is when i'm spraying here you're backing away i'm always backing away from the oven spray yeah i don't want to get covered in other spray um i can also see the distance i have a better view of how it sits in the surface and it's just so easy yeah i mean you tell me he's gonna tell you whether it's easy or not i'll do it i can
