Good idea priming back through the filter, im going to do that tomorrow 👍
Love it, I’ve noticed we get less in the finish if we do that, did you end up trying it? How’d it turn out?
Amazing. Learned a couple new tricks from this video. Thank you!
I love to hear that! Appreciate you watching the video
Many useful tips from a skilled professional. CZcams should recommend more of this and less of the clickbait garbage.
I appreciate that so much man. That’s the goal of these videos
I hate painting these doors. Might have to try this next time.
Haha I feel that sometimes, next time you paint them let me know how it goes!
they are so easy just roll 1 primer 1 top coat or 2 if its a color use a 3/8th nap mini roller
I just finished spraying 2 preprimed doors very similar to yours, except mine had no embossed grain. Instead of Emerald Urethane, which takes so long to cure, I used SW Gallery. The first door I sprayed when it was cold,( around 45-50 degrees), took a long time to dry. The second time it was warmer and dried much quicker. What I did not do was apply a primer since I figured the factory one was ok. I scuff sanded with Surf Prep pads and sprayed. The first door I sprayed with the QuickShot, like you, and the 2cd with a Kremlin AAA. Surprisingly, the QuickShot gave a better lay down than the Kremlin. Once all settled the Kremlin looked just as good, but it still surprised me it had an orange peel when I sprayed. I slightly thinned, maybe 5%, and still had orange peel. While the finish was good, I'm wondering if I should have primed like you did. I'll try that next time. Thanks for the video, always looking ways to improve.
Hey Wade, I appreciate the comment. SW Gallery is a great Sherwin product, we use it weekly here, the AAA Kremlin is a fantastic gun too, we normally are running big airless rigs or AAA when we’re doing our large projects but I bust out the quick shot for small projects like this here. Do you know how many wet mils you put on the door with both sprayers? In my experience that’s what gets me when I would get orange peel
I sprayed Gallery again over the weekend and it laid down a lot better. I think because it was warmer that helped. Also, when I cleaned the gun afterwards, I think I saw some built up 2k material from a previous spray that was partially clogging a couple of holes behind the air cap. I’m pretty sure it’s going to work a lot better next time as I’ve never had the Kremlin lay down anything but glass.
I look forward to more of your videos.
Love to hear it, it’s crazy how much even a couple degrees will change how material lays down. Make you feel like you’ve lost the touch at times haha. Do you personally enjoy more of the woodworking or painting/finishing videos?
How do you like the quick shot? Can you can great finish on cabinet doors in your opinion?
Hey Ben! The quick shot is great for small projects, we use it often for on site touchups post install of countertops, trim, etc. if you dial it in I think you can get a great finish on cabinets, especially Spraying horizontally, spraying vertically is definitely more tricky but it can be done I think
Thank you for the video. What tip size did you use to paint door?.
Well thank you for watching it! If you’re spraying the products I’m using in this video I would encourage not going smaller than a 10 orifice size, so with this Graco quick shot I use a 210 tip, on our bigger rigs I prefer a 310 or 410. If we’re spraying thinner products (industrial grade) we use 206, 306, 308, 408.
easiest doors to paint by hand. i only spray smooth doors. also bad primer for this use something like ben moore fresh start high build because it sands easier and powders up nicely
Anything is easy to paint by hand if you have enough time and don’t care about the finished product. Why would I use a high volume solid primer if I’m intentionally not flat sanding and don’t want to overfill the intentional embossed grain we bought the door for? We just wanted to increase adhesion, if we were going for flat we definitely would’ve went with a industrial coating but that defeats the whole purpose of these doors
@SupernalPaintingUSA it's not that high build when rolling or even spray to be honest just more solids to cover better
Hi, did you apply 2 coats of paint or 1 coat? If not 2 coats, do you recommend 2 coats that do not affect the grain. You did a beautiful job. Thank you.
Hi there! So for this particular door we did a 1-1, so one coat primer, one coat top coat (paint) depending on how it’s applied you might need more, or depending on your prep work it might need another coat to get the sheen even and not splotchy
