- Can a DIYer Airless Spray Paint Metal Building? The addition on the house has been done for a while now and is much closer to the metal barn (which houses the DIYTyler shop) then it was before so you noticed the color difference between the vinyl house and the metal commercial style barn color.

We recently rebuilt the shed at the back of the property, which is now the same color as the house.....so....the barn was looking REALLY bad! It is a 30x40 barn with metal siding and trim. The trim was a different color than the trim on the house, and the siding didn't match either. To make matters worse there was a lean-to added to the back of the barn that is YET a different color of brown! This had to change!
You can rent Airless spray equipment, where we live a medium duty sprayer is less than $100 for a full day rental.

We decided to paint the metal trim and siding to match the other buildings on the property. Here are the steps we took to transform this barn for about $500!.
1) We began by replacing the man door that was rotting on the bottom due to water damaged before we put a gutter on the barn. This was $200 all by itself!
2) We then removed those gutters as they were the correct color and had no need to paint them. 3) Removed an rust on the metal siding using a wire wheel on an angle grinder, there was not much but a few spots mostly on the seams.
4) Powerwashed the entire barn using Simple Green House and Siding cleaner and our Greenworks 2300psi Electric power washer. bit.ly/3jrpvaB
5) We then used Rustoleum rusty metal primer to prime these areas to prevent rust from starting again. This primer cost about $15.
6) Then painted the trim a dark brown using Sherwin williams Super Paint (all super paint cost me $300) which is an outdoor waterborne paint that is perfect for painting metal that already has paint on it. We sprayed the trim using a Graco TC Pro cordless airless paint sprayer.
7) Masked off the Trim we just painted using Sharp Lines tape (3M) and masking paper.
8) Painted the metal siding using tan Sherwin Williams super paint. Sprayed 6 gallons of this paint using a Graco ProX17 sprayer, took me about 4 hours to finish all the painting.
9) Remove masking right after you have coverage otherwise the paint will dry on the tape and you could peel paint up.
10) Clean up and sit back and admire the transformation!

thanks for including the power washing material and method, as well as the masking off and equipment to use and the setup. I've got to paint the exterior of of my new mobile home and so happy to see that it is a quicker task because I don't have tons of time to waste before moving in. Gratitude, my friend!
@diytyler how has this paint held up over the past 2 years? Has it stood the test of time?
Good to see you Tylor great job on the building.
Killer job you nailed it. Results speak for themselves. Nicely done.
Nice! I need to do this in the next couple years. Thanks. I'll probably have the confidence to DIY this now.
Thank you for this video. I am looking to repaint our shed and this video was so helpful!
I love it "spray or don't even do it at all" - Amen, Reverend! Great video, thank you.
Depends on what your painting metal def got to spray
we bought a green works pressure washer and wow did it surprise me with the pressure it had! i believe ours is the 2000psi. love it!
Great job! & it does makes me happy inside🤗👍
Great job Tyler! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP
You're the best teacher! Thank you so much
I have the same airless...really makes the job easy and fast. And no need to thin the latex paint.
Looks great! I love my Graco, too.
I used that pressure washer recently and it is a nice option for homeowners. The only annoying thing is the delayed pressure build. Takes a few seconds after you pull the trigger to turn on and build pressure. Most good sprayers are instant on.
Great video Tyler. Thanks for the lesson. Looks fantastic.
Looks great! Well done brother.
Great job and tutorial. Thanks!
Paint looks great!
I’m about to do this to my pole barn. Using all of your suggestions!
Nice! To this day it has been one of the best returns in investment projects!👍🏻
Looks great, and amazing sprayer, love not having to haul around all that air hose
Looks great Tyler, awesome job! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Awesome video mate, cheers!
Thank you Very Helpful for a project I have t get to!!
Lovely!!
I have a greenworks chainsaw and a blower, both are excellent tools. Don't sleep on this brand! Their 80V stuff is awesome and relatively affordable.
Great job! This is on my to do list fall.
Nice work fix-it Felix !!! 💪
for a guy who IS NOT a painter despite having very nice Graco spray equipment ( and TWO gun extensions) ... I know you're not a painter cause you had to look up what spray width a 515 tip is .... you sure are damn good. and it looked like you had a below avg brush yet your cut line was perfect. Congrats ... excellent work. something tells me you're very good at many handyman jobs
I like the puppy watching from the background
No drop cloths and I love your Toysrus paint brush.
Nice i have a similar project coming up thanks for the tips
Spray is the only way to go! It looks awesome! You may not be old enough to remember a time before cordless tools but we used to use nails all the time to build things. Nails weren't always round either if you can believe that?
Sprayers are fun for sure.
Great work man
Yeah no professional would ever think of using nails to set a door. And by the way I like the fact that you primed out you're bad spots hats off for that but latex paint on metal I know oil-based paint is getting hard to get but there are still people that carry it although probably for the amount that you were going to need the latex was the Smart Buy and it definitely is a higher grade is latex from Sherwin-Williams they make pretty decent paint I have used tons of their stuff but I have also use their oil base to. Nice video their young blood. Stay safe stay well and as always God bless
Your a legend, thank you for the info.
SW Super paint is great stuff. My whole house is done with it. My metal shop is done with SW DTM industrial.
Good Job Man. I was impressed.
Nice!.thank you.
It's been a while since I'm watched one of his videos, and it's like an infomercial.
Good job though for DYI
Great video.
Great job. I am about to spray my metal canopy. Definitely doing the spray.
Spray finish or don't do it!
Good job !
As a painter I love spraying and I do like super paint but on a metal building you would want to use Sherwin Williams DTM or direct to metal paint. Just remember the higher the sheen the better the durability however, can be harder to spray.
Thank you Bruce for the advice. Using DTM paint from SW tomorrow on my metal building. Power washed with TSP!
Question if i use DTM do i need to prime first or not ?
@@diegopacheco5433 just give it two coats or they sell DTM primer at Sherwin-Williams as well. Either way works fine
Good job bro !
Love Graco .
Great video. Thanks. I'm planning to do this to an old store front in NYC. Should I sand off old paint? Can I use the same paint for the wooden panels? I appreciate any info!
Nice work brother
Looks great just wondering why you didnt paint the small roof side gutter the dark color like the rest of the gutters. I am getting ready to paint my house with a graco magnum x7 will be my first time to spray.
That's the funniest looking barn I've ever seen...looks like another shed, well a pole shed that is...lol
Excellent, this is clean .
@lee rice I am a painter, not fooled and I have experience
Nice Nice!
good job!
How board am I that I’m watching a guy paint a building? 😂🤣 That cordless sprayer is sick though.
Most amazing results. 🥳 Is one coat enough on an old building? Next how to find people to do this great work? 😎 Thanks.
Also, where can I find painters to make murals on an old 105 year old red barn?
My implement this shed building program best best best !!!
Needed to turn up the pressure a touch. That will stop those lines on the edge. A good way to tell you are at the correct pressure is to go too low like you had it then turn up until those edge lines dissappear. Nice transformation though. Great job.
Thanks! I did mess around with that....am guessing my tip has seen better days, have put a lot of gallons through it now.
@@DIYTyler oh yeah that will do it as well. You probably know more and are better at it than I am! I'm only just getting into airless painting.
Bought a green works mower/blower combo with 2-batteries about 3 years ago. Never worked right. Under powered and battery life was terrible. Just used mower to trim and blower for quick cleanup. Dumped this year for new gas replacements. Never make that mistake again.
Damn good job.
It looks really good you did a very nice job next time just an FYI adjust your pressure on your sprayer that way you don’t get those find heavy lines on the outside like you see in the video when you’re spraying you get those heavy outlined lines that’s cause your pressure is off if you get that pressure dialed in that whole 10 inches will be completely smooth
Great video. I also have roof line metal trim to paint, so good to see Super Paint is a product that can be applied to that. Think Super Paint will also do well on unpainted brick?
Looks great. Can a metal roof be painted? Is there over spray using this sprayer? Thank you
Great vid... Should have sprayed that wood section infront of that shed as well ;)
Sherwin Williams super paint exterior
Nice! What tip did you use in the TP Pro?
Sorry i laughed at your calking skills.Great job thanks for the tips
I just bought my first home its a fixer-upper. Pretty much everything needs to be painted, interior walls, and kitchen and bathroom cabinets. Would you recommend the Graco ProX17 sprayer for these jobs too?
The Graco ProX17 will do a great job for those jobs.
Nice job! How is it holding up so far?
You need more air pressure or thinner paint then i got these stripes between - (10:56)
What type of paint did you use?! Do I need to use an special primer?
Great job and good advice! One question: What's the reason you didn't paint the wooden service yard right next to the garage door in the same scheme? It now looks a little out of place. :-)
I second that.
graco spray gun very the best
Question... Do you have to thin the paint or does it come ready to spray? Thanks.
Great job!! But that Super paint won't gonna last on metal.
$300-$500 is way less than I paid somebody to paint my house 5 years so. I'm definitely doing it myself next time and using a sprayer. Thanks for the great tips!
my graco x19 model was 535 +tax. but i can spray as much as i want with that cost. although the accessories add up: roller, tips, extension, cleaner, hoses, strainers, etc.
You were talking about peeling up the tape after.... but what about between coats? Did you do multiple coats of tan, or was it just a single coat?
That’s what I was wondering too
it looked like you weren't spraying enough per pass or weren't using enough passes before moving. was that a thing or just the video not capturing the detail enough?
I'm gonna have to look into that battery powered sprayer. It impressed me. You can use DeWalt 20v batteries in it?
Yeah, I just bought one. It's the Graco Ultra or the TC Pro if you buy it from the big box stores. The kit comes with 2 20v DeWalt batteries and a charger.
@@KyleVeatch Thanks a bunch, Kyle. It's awesome to have people with experience and kindness in the comments since Tyler can't always get around to reading every comment.
it is amazing, the 6 amp hour batteries are a must! thing is a tad bit heavy but not as much as you would think
you can do alot with a 14 inch roller and a pan on some ceilings
Great job Tyler 👍
Can you paint a metal warehouse with rollers or brush?
Looks like me when I do a paint job. Just rush into painting, no drop clothes or protection from overspray on your concrete or nice landscaping rocks.
Paint the body first then tape and mask the wall before the trim so gravity is on your side. 😉😉😉
Nice video, subd from it
What's is acrylic latex? What is the difference between acrylic latex vs 100% acrylic paint?
Water will corrode the pump components over time. Shoukd either drain it completely or store it with some storage fluid
What if I just want some awesome painting apparel?
Overall and end result is good, for a DYI not bad, caulking skills need assistance and direction and some of the prep work could stand a bit of improvement but an overall good deal, If I had to rate the whole project from start to finish on a scale of 1 to 10 I would give you a 6.99 not that anyone was asking lol.
Thanks for sharing, it looks a lot better and that was the whole purpose.
One piece of information you may find useful when painting start with lightest colour and work through to darkest.
Try doing body first then mask trim easier to mask walls than it’s to mask ceilings
What was the silicone looking paint can topper? I’ve never seen one, where did you get it?
every paint store ever
Okay my favorite part is in the beginning he explains what we are about to see... and his boss, the dog, is over his shoulder watching and listening. I had a project dog, a Beagle, who would join me on all of my projects. I miss that Beagle. I now have a project cat named Doug - isn’t the same.
"Who uses nails?" - showing your age young Tyler! Love your videos!
Yeah, these kids born after 1890 are hilarious.
No way to shut off the soap sounds like a huge oversight on their part. Seems like it'd be easy enough to put a shutoff valve somewhere.
I'm willing to bet the soap isn't actually dispensed when nozzles other than the soap nozzle are used. At least that how every pressure washer I've ever used works.
I wonder if you could’ve gotten a smaller wire wheel
How is this holding up?
Just food for though. Builders always use nails. They have far greater strength- especially torsion strength which comes to places like doors. Yeah they are super annoying to deal with, but they are cheaper and stronger than screws (in some applications).
All together great video. Thanks man.
Use the right screws and there stronger than nails.
I'm already a painter, so this video was useful for critiquing, and finding errors 🤭 joking was good
Sounds like the squids from fortnite when he was spraying with the g17 near the end lol.
