Shouldn't you mix the paint in the original can first BEFORE pouring it into the mixing can?

The inline water filter is always great to have but not as big a deal with latex, if it were a oil base then most def use one. As for thinning latex paint and primer its not always a good idea to thin latex paint to much, some paints it will drastically shorten the life span plus other issues. Most latex paints shouldnt be thinned the same as oil based paints. Kilz and zinser primer's are designed to be used as is and can be thinned some, but over thinning will negate the effectiveness of the paint. You are using that cheap harbor freight gun that comes with a 1.3 or 1.4 mm fluid tip, that is not ideal for latex paint and primer. I wouldnt use anything less than a 1.8 to 2.0 mm fluid tip for latex unless the paint is specifically designed to be thinned that much.

You lost me when you left the heavier particles in the original can and then mixed the lighter/thinner material from the top of the can.

The question wasn’t loaded at all

Hi. What PSI do you set the air at?

Good vid bro you should of mentioned stirring the can of primer before transferring into another can

You are supposed to mix before you pour into the empty can to make sure your pigment is blended well. If you need more, it may be off color or thicker than you intended. Im sure you know this, just forgot to tell us.

Thanks for the video. I just broke down and bought a 3 turbine HVLP system so from what I can tell I won't need to reduce the paint this much. Problem with reducing the paint down so far is that is can actually change the color or tint of your paint.

Good advice. I've sprayed both lacquer and water based products and found that the "latex" paint was much harder to clean out of the gun than the lacquer. Do you recommend having a separate gun for each? I use LVLP for lacquer and it does real well. Do you think HVLP is better for latex (my broad term for water-based paints. I know they've got a lot of stuff in them that isn't latex.)

So the 1.4mm fluid tip was sufficient to spray out thinned latex paint? Some people say that the tip should be drill to 2mm so that enough paint can flow. Thanks for the video and God Bless

Great video man! I followed your instructions to a T, my doors turned out great.

thank you, perfect no bs vid reinforcing what i was going to need to do for the project i'm working on.

Awesome Video!!!!! Right to the point!!!! Perfect!!! No Stupid Irritating Music!!!!

Thanks for showing us how it’s done & especially for the links. One stop shop, so to speak. Much appreciated.

old painter here I have one of the old tube scoop measurers from sears from years ago, scoop out the diluted paint and time the emptying of the tube scoop, old guys rock

Great refresher on what right looks like. Thanks for taking the time to put this together & especially for staying on point.

SHORT AND INFORMATIVE "I like it" thank you, PATRICK.P

Your explanation of how to thin latex to the proper consistency for spraying is golden. Thank you!

Very helpful, thanks for being straight forward

That red stirrers are fantastic !! I have one.
