Spray isn't about replacing brushes and rollers. It's about choosing the right tool for the right job.
When used in the right situations, spraying can help improve efficiency, consistency and overall job productivity.
Cover large areas quicker and reduce time spent on site.
Create consistent finishes without brush or roller marks.
Increase your capability across interiors, exteriors and detailed projects.
Finish jobs sooner and move onto the next project faster.
Spraying is ideal when speed, consistency and coverage matter. Large surface areas like ceilings, walls, weatherboards and fences can often be completed faster while delivering a smooth, even finish. It's the preferred choice when productivity and efficiency are the priority.
Rolling remains an important part of most painting projects. It's often the better option for smaller areas, occupied spaces, touch-ups and situations where extensive masking isn't practical. Many professional painters use a combination of spray and roller to achieve the best outcome for each job.
✓ Increase pressure only until the spray fan is clean and consistent.
✓ Keep the gun square, moving your body, not your wrist.
✓ Overlap each pass by 50% to create a consistent, even finish.
✓ Maintain a consistent distance. Too close causes runs. Too far creates overspray.
