    Great channel! I work at Glacier Factory Finishes here in Montana and we also have issues with the SW ultra deep base. Straining all of our paint has been helpful, so has properly mixing our paints. Scraping the bottoms of 5 gallon buckets with a stir stick, along with drilling the paint with agitators has proved useful! Paint life keep rockin it!

    Thank you so much for your videos. I've been watching for over a year getting up my courage to paint my two story apartment myself. Thanks to your videos I was able to do the prep work prior to starting and to use the sprayer (with the PSI that worked best). Sadly, because I was on top of a 25 foot ladder, I was unable to get clean starts and stops at logical places, but all turned out beautifully. Thanks again.

    The sputtering problem you described at the end is common with oil based paints that have been sitting past the manufacture date for a long time. We use oil base all the time in line striping and even the cans that are only a few months old sometimes need 4-5 full cups of toluene, even after been shaken in a commercial machine. Even after all that like you said some paint is just crap and will not spray

I cannot find any videos on this from anyone. Do you spray the window when its closed and open it, then roll the rest of the sash or do you take off the sash and spray it separately? I would love to know the process you would do for this and what materials you would use. I've got an Airless and an HVLP available to use. God Bless Brother.

I am spraying Kilz original as I am using BM advanced. I’ve tried all I feel I can try and still getting tails. Cleaned filter, cleaned inflow and outflow valves. I’ve even thinned to primer 4oz of mineral spirits for 1 gal. I’ve just sprayed the first coat. Help would be much appreciated.

    I have an older model graco ultimate airless paint sprayer. I can get it to prime and spray but it continuously runs and sprays zigzag lines. It also builds a lot of paint in front over primer shaft. The pump will slow down when adjusted but will not stop until it too low to spray.

    I am a retired city and guilds served painter and decorator. When I served my apprenticeship rollers were not ever used. All ceilings and walls were done with a 9in paint brush from a metal bucket . When rollers came along I was very sectibal although as they improved I took to better licking to them as they made life so much easier and I earnt far more money. I am still called upon to do the odd decorating job now and again although I can be far more choosy. I have never been in the world of spraying although it seems to be the next trend. I have bought myself a Wagner 150m 300w diy airless paint sprayer 230v (UK) as it was less expensive to see if I take to it .So l will watch you with interest

    If I use the 60-80 filter on the manifold and 100 filter on the gun will that make the paint go threw while using the 310 tips or even a 208 tip.

I sprayed 2 walls already and didn't get fingers but there was a lot of overspray so maybe I had it too high.
