It sucks! #overspray

What happens here

Understand that the type of coating being applied significantly influences the amount of overspray. The speaker explicitly states, 'It is a primer, it's not a house paint so you're going to have more overspray with the primer.' This crucial insight means that even with optimal pressure settings, primers will generally produce more overspray compared to finish house paints due to their different formulations and viscosities.

Goal: Understand that primer naturally creates more overspray than regular house paint due to material properties.

What they say

I would want to turn it down to one and see what happens. Like, yeah, last but not least, it kicks like all that overspray. That's a lot of overspray. It is a primer. It's not a house paint. So you're going to have more overspray with the primer.
