Industrial paints are oils and epoxies. Which means ALOT of solvent to clean an airless. Only recoment water clean up paint for airless. Which is basically only latex for houses and may commercial properties. Dont listen to cpt dunning crugar over here
Industrial setting where mahines and what not are being painted typically dont get done with a cup gun. Weve always used pressure pot gallon sprayers (think siphon gun with a gallon of paint capacity). Ive never seen airless sprayers used though
30+ years commercial/industrial/aerospace. Airless is the only way to go, unless you want to slow dance. If you're getting a lot of overspray with an airless, you're not using the right tip and/or your viscosity is thin. An industrial airless requires no thinning unless you're shooting high-solids.
Pushing paint for 20+ yrs res and com, each has their own place and time even brush and roller. Pat of winning a good game is knowing what to play and when.
When the finish can look like straight up shit you can use anything. When you want quality, use a gravity fed gun. When you wanna just throw paint on a pile of shit use the airless sprayer. Got it.
I have a question for you guys these are Wisconsin if you start going to run how you going to blow the run out I was just wondering do you have a gravity gun if you think it's too wet you can put the air to it and dry it a little bit
yeah great for big jobs but waste is crazy for small jobs and paint isn't cheap. for those saying quick shot it only does 2k psi which is a problem for high solids epoxy mastic. i just thin and use hvlp since i shoot under 1 liter at a time.

Nonsense!
😂😂
Use that and you are wasting tons of money on paint. Use an air sprayer with a remote pot
only good for covering large surfaces anything small would probably come out sht or look like a rushed job
You sound exactly like the Should I Series guy 😂
You only recommend gravity gun for cars. Doe is mean the airless would not do the job???
Painted a 40ft container in 9 mins with a wagner airless sprayer. They work well and didn't need a second coat

Yeah if you want your car looking like a damn orange with all that peel you’re gonna get
Used the airless electrical. Pump. At bae systems. Navalyard. Paint spraying. Larger areas. Fantastic pump. Great finish. And. Film. Thickness
How do u mix the anti corrosive paint? To achieve the best viscosity
They are but I prefer the gravity guns to cut when I'm doing siding usually. Still agree with you though 100
What tipis on the nozzle. Lmkif you get a chance
Undercoating?

HVLP for detailed work. Airless for if your goal is to quickly get it covered
Why air hose?

Totally different purposes. But yeah something so commercial why bother with a HVLP
Where do you store the paint though the air hose and air together
And if you got the right tip for the right application it will look much better too
Depends on the tip LOL!
What propels the paint.?

What airless sprayer is that??
It uses zero air? Not even mechanical in the grip?
My car is industrial 😂
All that paint being sprayed onto nothing is irrationally pissing me off.
I notice much more orange peel. Maybe it's the painter. That airless fan looks great.
Airless and it still use air for the spray😂😂😂😂
