I can’t believe it took me so long to discover the beauty of a paint sprayer.
It was fast, easy, and did an amazing job.
Many of you have mentioned wanting one, I say do it.
It is well worth the money!
Here are my tips:
1. It is SO important to clean it out the sprayer thoroughly. Cleaning the sprayer takes twice as long painting but is necessary in order to keep the sprayer working good.
2. Always spray another object first to get the an even spray before spraying your piece.
3. Do thin coats, this prevents dripping.
4. Make sure you give adequate drying time between the coats.
5. Don’t underestimate the amount of paint. The paint sprayer uses more paint but coats wonderfully.
Other than that, it is super easy.
Today we are tackling the dining room chairs, wish us luck!
Man, I’m jealous. I want that sprayer… and something to spray! I feel like it could be slightly addicting– I would be spray painting my dog by the end of the day! Thanks for the great tips!

We have the kind you hook to an air compressor for painting our fence, but I’ve been hesitant to use it on furniture. Good to know!
Thanks for the tips…it sounds like the sprayer is the way to go!
Yay, thanks. I’m so excited to finally invest in one of these, thanks to your inspiration.
