I’m sure at this point it goes without saying that I really like to paint things. Sometimes, depending on the finish I’m going for, I might prefer a brush. Other times a sprayer is absolutely the only way to go. Here are my tried and true tips on how to successfully use a paint Plastic Trigger Sprayer factory to achieve a professional finish whether you’re a beginner or whether you just haven’t found the right paint sprayer fit for you.

　　Last summer we embarked on what is probably the biggest build of our lives so far, a tiny house for our getting-bigger-by-the day kids. And for that reason, it turned out to not be so tiny. We have finally finished it and I am busily finishing up the final touches. Mainly, a place for the big people to sit while the little people play.

　　SUPPLIES FOR MY PROJECT:

　　This post may contain affiliate links. Please see my disclosure for more information.

　　Unfinished Adirondack Chair

　　Wagner Home Decor Paint Sprayer

　　Large Dropcloth

　　Medium & Fine Sanding Sponges

　　Clean cloth

　　They were practically already put together and they came unfinished so I could paint them any color I like.

　　In one afternoon I put all 4 of them together, sanded to remove any rough edges and wiped them clean.

　　Not only is not obnoxiously loud but it is so, so easy to use and creates a beautiful finish with little extra effort on your part. And they’ve taken guesswork (and mess) out of thinning. It also comes with a poster so you can practice your strokes and a cheat sheet on which pattern to use when. Plus, it’s super easy to clean.

　　It’s super lightweight but powerful making it great for projects big or small. It can be used with milk paint, chalk-type, and most any decorative paints.

　　Paint sprayers can be intimidating especially if you’re new to them, at least it was the first time I used one. And then afterward I couldn’t believe I hadn’t tried it sooner. They make the job so much faster and easier.

　　TIPS ON HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY USE A PAINT SPRAYER:

　　Have a designated space to spray and protect area with a drop cloth

　　Always thin your paint with the appropriate thinning medium and mix well

　　As always, clean your project prior to painting

　　Sand any rough areas with medium grit sanding block and wipe clean of dust/debris

　　Don’t try to cover completely in the first pass

　　Use full sweeping motions, side to side, up and down

　　Keep sprayer 3 – 6″ from project, depending on project size, to avoid puddling of paint and drips

　　Use correct flow control and pattern settings, see details below

　　Sand in between coats with a fine sanding block for an ultra smooth finish

　　Keep a damp cloth on hand and occasionally wipe spray nozzle to remove any dried paint.

　　We offer all kinds of cosmetic packaging, such as Refillable Perfume Pen manufacturers, please consult us if you have any questions.
