Paint non-stop with a paint sprayer and attached paint tank and compressor.
Paint large areas without stopping to re-load paint by using a spray paint gun attached to a pressurized paint tank. Paint spray guns attached to pressurized tanks apply paint evenly over large areas regardless of how the gun is held or the direction in which the spray is directed. Paint over head or up-side down and receive the same even coverage without re-loading, spilling or dripping. Painting with this method is as simple as attaching the spray gun to the pressurized paint tank, attaching the tank to an air compressor, turning the compressor on and aiming the spray gun.
Instructions
1. Attach the spray gun to the paint tank by pulling back the brass coupling at the end of the paint tube attached to the tank and sliding it into the paint gun. Release the coupling to lock the coupling and tube in place.
2. Remove the top of the paint tank and fill it two-thirds full with paint. Reattach the top.
3. Turn the pressure valve on the paint tank clockwise until tight, to keep the canister from de-pressurizing during use.
4. Attach the air compressor hose to the paint tank by sliding back the hose coupling, sliding the coupling on to the tube and releasing the coupling to lock, as with the spray gun/paint tank attachment.
5. Plug the air compressor into an electrical outlet and turn it on.
6. Aim the spray gun at a piece of cardboard or scrap wood and gently pull the trigger to release a small amount of paint. Adjust the width of the spray to accommodate the project at hand.
7. Paint the project area with the spray gun covering the area in broad back-and-forth strokes.
