When you switch from prime to paint, it's important not to have the motor running as this will eventually damage the switch. Also reversing the tip still lets material flow through the tip and causing excessive wear through the tip when in actuality you can just remove the tip being very careful not to have any direct injection by the spray of the material and it will cycle through a lot faster.

@alexsandoval72024 жыл бұрын
I don’t understand why painters back roll , it defeats the purpose of spraying which is to be faster than rolling. As a painter that does both spray and traditional brush and roll work , if you’re planning on back rolling then opt out of using the sprayer as it will cut into your time having to prepare for use and clean the sprayer afterwards. Might as well just cut and roll . Even faster when you use the bigger rolls like 14 to 18 inch , especially if you’re just running primer on brand new drywall/sheetrock.
@MattFreytag4 жыл бұрын
Alex Sandoval I cant speak for other painters but there are a few reasons I back roll. One reason is to even out the paint on the wall. Second it creates roller texture/stipple. This helps when touching up at the end of a build. Also I can spray and back roll a house way quicker than I can cut in and roll the walls no matter what size roller I am using. Personally I would classify backfilling as an extra step that would create a better overall finish. Those are my opinions. Thanks for the comment and for watching the video.
@alexsandoval72024 жыл бұрын
Matt Freytag perfectly understandable, some clients would want roller texture for sure and I suppose it does help with the touch ups in the latter parts of the job . I guess at the end of the day whatever gets the job done quicker is the way to go, in my experience it ends up being counterproductive hence why the comment in the first place . I’ve definitely seen my share of mishaps working/helping other contractors doing spray work . Thanks for the reply and good content regardless, and congratulations on the upgrade with the sprayer 👍

Simply being a homeowner though for occasional (rare) use (and being housepoor :), I can't afford it or justify the expense (even though it was in my top 3 finalists after lots of research). The new model pump is better. And you can by aftermarket versions of it for pretty cheap (less than a $100 on Amazon, and eBay). One (or more) of these may actually be the OEM pump since I believe some of the components are made overseas (China). Like everything else, if it's assembled in America (some DeWalt tools for instance), they can say "Made In America".

aaron anderson First off thanks for your comment and watching my video. I really can’t answer the technical question of ‘Do you really need to back roll primer’. This is just the way I have been doing it for years. I do know this. In my experience it helps even out the primer or paint that you are spraying on the wall to get better coverage since sometimes the spray pattern is not perfectly consistent depending on the spray rig, paint thickness, or your actual technique. Also it is just one more coat of rolling texture to make the dry wall and mud joints more consistent when the light is shining on them.

@@yup3398 am not a painting a contractor though I do alot of painting...mostly residential....I am a GC sure its good machine but you would have to weigh out what you typically spray to find out best overall fit for you.....I use HVLP guns alot too for fine finish when overspray is an issue.....if you can only have 1 sprayer find one that covers most of what you will do

Hi Matt, when you say you turn your tip back, what is it for ? Is it for saving the tip ? And that way you dont have to take it out for saving your tip ? Thanks for your help !
@MattFreytag4 жыл бұрын
Steve Beaulieu. Actually the process I did at the beginning of running the water and paint through the gun should have been done with the tip removed. The material would have went thru faster and you would avoid and unnecessary wear on the tip. They do wear out from the paint acting like an abrasive and blowing out the inside of the tip making it spray differently than intended. As for turning the tip around! The reasoning for this is to blow out any trash or debris to unclog the tip then spin it back around to continue painting. Hopefully this answered your question. Thanks for the comment and for watching the vide.

How to avoid a lot of over spray?
@MattFreytag4 жыл бұрын
francisco ballona you just have to use drop cloths and mask everything off you don’t want paint on.

I got me a 390 pc and honestly I regret it not because it whas a bad machine It did more that a little pony should do but I end up buying a 490pc with in a year a litle more money but it has a 1 hp and a better pressure control set also brushless motor and sprays more per minute all that for around $400 more the 490 you can use it on exteriors and you don't hear a little motor being over worked dont get me wrong my 390 painted a 2 storage house but like I say I know I was burning the little pony If you can extend you're buffer a little I recommend a Ultra Max 490pc Cheers from North Hollywood California

ebenezerENlosangeles I don’t really paint that much so I don’t see the need to spend any more cash. I painted the exterior of my house as well with this machine and it ran just fine with no problems. I do not feel it was overworked at all but I have not used any larger machine so it’s hard to give an accurate comparison. Thanks for the info.

The harbor freight Krause is a better machine than cheap graco HD sells.....I had that same graco and it was pos....harbor freight is still goin....but pc 390 is what am looking at next.....if I painted more would be no brainer but it comes and goes so
@MattFreytag3 жыл бұрын
I agree. The one I got from HD did last a while but once it was done there was no fixing it. In retrospect to me buying the 390 pc I wish I would have gotten the 395 Ultra because of a few extra features but the PPG store did not have them in stock and I needed to spray a spec house immediately.

I am old school roller & brush guy. I just hired a painter because i was lazy to paint interior. Know wonder why 2 coats didn't cover well. They must have used a paint gun & charge me extra for 3 coats of paint. Unfortunately, i could not be there to watch how they painted. Never ever again hire another painter they all shortcut if you're not watch them step by step.
