It sucks! #overspray

What happens here

After observing excessive overspray, consider the possible causes. The speaker suggests that the issue could stem from either too much or too little pressure on the airless sprayer. The recommended course of action is to 'turn it down to one' (referring to a pressure setting or dial) to see how the spray pattern changes.

Goal: Determine potential reasons for excessive overspray and plan pressure adjustments.

Tools and materials

  • Spray gun/Airless paint sprayer — Adjusting the pressure settings

What they say

I mean, there's just a pound of, like, overspray with heat around right there. Does that mean it's too much right now? It could be, like, too much pressure to middle pressure. 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.
