Wow! I have painted using the old stuff all my life (except exterior spraying on houses). You are amazing as well as the technology. Thank you so much for the education.

man...thank you for all the videos. I like getting advice from the best sources possible, and you are by far the most detailed and experienced with your instructions. your skill level is second to none, and you look like a robot spraying that room. I wish I knew about your videos before I rolled every inch of the interior of my house. vaulted ceilings and all. I'm a bit intimidated by you when that sprayer is in your hand, but confident enough to spray and back- roll the stucco. again, thank you for the videos and tutorials! you are the paint master!

wow..gotta tell ya..I started out just watching one of your video's early this morning over a cup of Java and 2 1/2 hours later still watching all your awesome video's and saving them to my Handyman Painting files !!

Hi guys, DIY chum from the land of Aussie. Just have to post a well deserved positive feedback. Your instructional is simple to understand, and VERY insightful. My additional tip to everyone out there is simple. WATCH the video very carefully! See how B&K boys have thought of every little detail. They have not taken shortcuts on any preparation, removed all the electrical sockets, pulled back floor edges etc, and sealed a lot of the non painting surfaces with poly sheets that are ridiculously cheap. I use those poly sheets in my garage to cover unused mattresses and storage items (at $2 for 2 sheets that are 6m x 3m). Preparation is 50% of your goal. 45% is the right items. 5% is the confidence in using the airless machine. Well done lads! Love this vid. P.S. I have a side project that I wish to throw an old Ford into the garage and use the same airless gear to repaint the bonnet. Good enough to spray enamel or best going for the old compressor instead? Cheers mates! Enzo

I really appreciate you making time to createthe video. Quite often, there’s not enough info in the content to help. I look forward to watching more on it very soon. Again, thank you for sharing it.

Home Improvement How To's I just had a conversation about you and your work. I was in a bank In The Bahamas. Keep up the good work.

Well, after watching your airless sprayer videos, and having a large master bedroom and master bathroom to paint, I decided to use an airless sprayer. I got a great deal on an airless sprayer from Harbor Freight, and got the RAC X-517 guard and tip set to spray the ceiling and walls as well as a RAC-X 310 fine finish tip to spray the trim and a 30" extension for the cathedral ceiling. I spent a great deal of time prepping and masking things off. The paint sprayer worked beautifully, and I slowly increased the pressure until I got an even spray. Since I was a nube at spraying, I assumed that I wouldn't have good technique, and I didn't, but I had planned to spray a small section, the roll it to even it out. That worked well for me and was still pretty fast. It would have been faster if I had help rolling, but I was by myself, so... While I was prepared for some amount of paint dust, and used a 3M filter mask for painting, I was not prepared for the huge amount of paint dust in the air - especially in the master bathroom. It was a heavy cloud. With hindsight, I should've covered everything, but unfortunately, I didn't. The paint dust got onto every exposed surface. I had only masked off the perimeter of the tile floor about 1 foot all the way around. I fully covered the mirror and cabinets, and masked off the shower and tub tile area, unfortunately, I didn't cover the middle of the tile floor or most of the bathtub. Needless to say, the dust got all over the tile floor and I tracked it everywhere. After priming the bathroom and about 1/2 the bedroom, I decided that rolling would be a lot less messy, so I cleaned up the sprayer, put the pump armor in and put it in storage. The primer dust stuck pretty hard to the tile and the bathtub, but it was Bullseye 1,2,3 and with some warm water, a scrubbing pad, and a lot of elbow grease, I was able to clean the primer dust off the tile floor and bathtub. Lesson learned. Having now done it, and seeing how well you're able to control your paint dust, my hat's off to you! It's much harder that it looks, but you make it look effortless. Thanks for all your great videos!

I have the exact same setup as you, but Graco x7. Thus is my first job and I decided to paint side to side :). This method makes much more sense when using the extension. I must say when first looking at the Grayco it looked like a toy massive plastic housing with teeny little motor inside. Didn't look like anything special but it appeared to do a job with no spray clogs so I guess it works.

Good job man. you make it look easy!

finally the video I was looking for! thanks a lot!!! liked! 👍

Ok thanks pal I'm in New York I paint a lot of finished homes furniture everywhere all the time . The only time I spray is and apartment complex when it's empty it quicker n back roll like I would normally do except I don't have to keep going back n fo dipping in pan also found that quicker. Thank if u said u wouldn't buy it I'm not. I bought my first 440 titan n started spraying cause of u n videos thanks. My jobs get done quicker n finish on doors n trim look great .

Hello thank you for the video and i had one question. If I am painting my ceiling and walls all white is there an order which i need to follow? any tips would help

Ur prob the best paint sprayer I've saw..what psi do u use for walls? Is it better for higher pressure or lower on sheet rock? Why would someone use low pressure? Thanks I watch all ur vids and love em..I've watched this one 3 times

And how often do you replace sprayers tips when spraying new houses(interiors)? What about exteriors?

Some observations from a nubester. It is ez to get info overload when learning to spray paint, so watching this true master of the trade do it clears up lots of misinformation: 1. He doesnt maintain 90 angle to the surface. Toward top and bottom of the wall it is more like 45, doesnt seem to matter at all. May be few % of paint will go airborne at these angles, but it is minute enough 2. Speed. He moves at fairly brisk but steady pace. If you slow down, you will deposit too much paint and will get drooling and/or orange-peel texture 3. No "flick-of-the-wrist" technique at the end points of the stroke is present. Simple up'n'down overlapping motion, with gun on 95% of the time. Only time he does quick squirts is to touch up in trickier spots. He does end the strokes on the masked area on the bottom and on the ceiling for top. 4. There a bit of "finger" going on - you can see it on the RHS of spray wedge. Dont seem to affect anything at all. You want your pressure to be as low as possible w/o w/o fingers. That will deposit less paint, helping with drooling/orange peel, reducing wear/tear on the tip and overall stress on the machine

I spent 2 days doing my room during the Pandemic...I gotta get with the program 🤦🏽‍♂️😄

if this is eggshell do I have to back role it? if yes and I spray and don't back role what happens?

Hi Chris, when you sprayed the ceiling afterwards did you use a spray shield or another masking method to keep a nice edge?

that's good job

Are you spot priming your patches with a roller or hiitng them with the sprayer, aslo are you removing your masking before it drys to prevent paint peeling when it drys between wall and masking

Yes. I saw the video on spraying two tone colors. I am trying to ask if you mask the wall you painted with painters plastic and do you do it right after or wait till the paint cures and then come back and spray the ceiling.

How many coats do you put on when spraying? Is it still the standard 2 coats?

Brilliant!

Chris great video as always....i just wanted to ask...is it only NEW drywall ceilings that need back rolling after spraying? thanks mate

Dude sprayed the shit out of that room! Great job.

Hey Chris, My brother and I are getting ready to spray his new house (interior). The house is 4700sf all level 5 finish with some ceilings at 20'. We just finished sanding the finish (I hate sanding) and literally went over every square inch to fill any nicks or scratches from sanding (he had tapers but fired them because they didn't seem to know what a level five finish was so they sanded everything with 150 grit and tried to call it good). My question is... would you ever back roll a level 5 and what tips can you give me to get the smoothest walls possible?
