You should have mixed the paint before you poured some into the empty can
Comment from : @bmfilmnut

Most latex house paints aren’t made to be thinned this much and aren’t intended to be sprayed through automotive style spray guns Do yourself a favor and buy or rent an airless sprayer if you want to spray primers and paints intended for a house HVLP guns are designed for auto primers and paints and they are a different animal entirely
Comment from : @LTVoyager

They actually make waterborne lacquers and paints designed for this application due to the demand for the most durable finish without all the harmful fumes I have experimented thinning all types of paint to spray and almost always revert back to a basic rule Use the right tool for the job so you only have to do it once The video was great but it is better to use measuring containers in the process so you don't go past the manufacturer recommended thinning ratios for that particular project Other than that i used this video to help me judge consistency Ty!

wouldnt you want to mix the paint before you poured it out of the gallon? how many solids did you leave behind?
Comment from : @user-jc1xx7fk8k

Oil and water?
Comment from : @user-vc9jq4ws7k

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

Should have mixed paint before pouring it into the mixing can 😮
Comment from : @maidenfarms

I’d already using Floetrol at the recommended 3:1 (paint to flo) ratio, would you still recommend 5-10 distilled water? Or just the Floetrol?
Comment from : @victorvek5227

I am private labelling blank circular blades, I have a small air brush gun, WHAT is the best kind of Paint to use? I'm searching and thus far this is the closest I've gotten When I first brainiac'd this idea, I used just spray paint to get an idea, however fingerprints were left, it's like it never dried, hence my request fo you guys ANY advice would be appreciated, sincerely
Comment from : @bigjohn7589

will thinning with water effect the sheen? will the thinned satin still match the paint that wasn't thinned ?

Big help! Thanks 🙏
Comment from : @ManWytch

Sound is shit, good info though
Comment from : @philippetersen64

How about oil base primers? Can you spray them through HLVP gun using same method?
Comment from : @anthonyrochon3907

Why wouldn't you mix the paint/primer BEFORE you put in the empty can? That doesn't seem like a wise thing to do
Comment from : @spocksvulcanbrain

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
Comment from : @shaynesabala

In the description section the spray gun link is on Amazon for 139$ But in the video that spray gun is a central pneumatic from harbor freight The HB purple gun I have two They have plastic reservoirs I paid 10$ for mine Probably more now since it’s 2 years later Just wondering why the discrepancy Thanks for the video

60 reduction for fine finish

What psi/bar are you running your compressor on
Comment from : @simonroberts8315

Just buy the cup gun with the 18 tip you won't have to thin the paint soo much that gun is s 14 and made for clear coat automotive paints
Comment from : @Bidenshowersyndicate

Should have stirred before dumping into empty can first
Comment from : @MrTmpinsanity

ummm Why do you link HVLP gun from Amazon ($13999) when you clearly show a Harbor Freight (PURPLE) HVLP gun which sells for $15? Sorry credibility went out the window for me!
Comment from : @rs6567

Love the opener they do make a lid opener for that purpose
Comment from : @davidlang4442

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)
Comment from : @Voartist

i used the paint filter from hb to check the viscosity
Comment from : @jungapo2

good video this helped I have same gun harbor freight purple gun, I did the mod to that gun making the tip 20 from 14, only took 5 minutes to mod the gun for primer
Comment from : @markbrown1609

Very good explanations
Comment from : @melvis2017

U are the man very good and great job thanks allot for sharing
Comment from : @melvis2017

Buen video! Thanks
Comment from : @ouroboros5378

Shouldn't you have mixed it before you poured it in the other bucket?
Comment from : @tomkastelitz66

thanks for the quick straight to the point video, new sub from me
Comment from : @mitchahbw

Shouldn't you have mixed the primer up before pouring it into the empty can? Otherwise, you leave the settled portion crucial for a proper mix remaining in the original can
Comment from : @ChristcrossCrafts

If you spray water through a paint gun without stainless steel components it will eventually rust
Comment from : @rodneyperry3124

Thank you how about oil based paint? Also I have a graco I habe Graco truecoat 360 are recommending any tip nozzles for cabinet Finnishing ?
Comment from : @swift4311

Never knew to use water to thin out a water based paint
Comment from : @markwoten6679

Stupid question does the water change the color?
Comment from : @Johndoe-gn6mm

Gonna try this…thanks for the thinning tip What nozzle are you using? I have a 18mm
Comment from : @rickvanhooren548

Thank you for the pointers!
Comment from : @craigcolbourn

Mix the paint in the first bucket first so that when you pour into the next bucket all the settled solids come with it
Comment from : @2manycatsforadime

He didn't mention using the correct sized spray tip for this type of paint but he sure did mention buying his stuff on Amazon He was even nice enough to provide Amazon links for everything he was pushing Wat a waste of time
Comment from : @tribulationprepper787

"We open our paint and primer" Well, no it's just primer "We're not going to add to much paint, just some" Yeah, primer again If you water it down to much you can always add more paint Well, we see primer and no paint yet I have this exact HVLP spray gun, I love it Harbor Freight $15 Though no paint was shown in this video it's a good idea to thin your latex just a bit Primer and not paint shown in this video does not need to be thinned Check Gsx-rs vid on adjusting the spray gun Primer is atomized perfectly through this gun

Thank godexactly what I needed♥️🇨🇦
Comment from : @cc-ft8gq

Great!!!!
Comment from : @mtoconnor9898

You painted woodhow dare you lol
Comment from : @brettking8663

Noticed a mistake The paint should of been mixed before it was add to the empty can
Comment from : @Linrox

Hi What PSI do you set the air at?
Comment from : @kronie19

Why in the world would you use an air/water separator when spraying a WATER based paint? Don't want any extra moisture in the paint?
Comment from : @jamesboniface8779

So the 14mm 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
Comment from : @johnjkizer6399

Great video man! I followed your instructions to a T, my doors turned out great
Comment from : @andersonandrew112

I use windshield washer fluid to thin down latex paints and it works great
Comment from : @bruceschermerhorn4434

Thanks bro
Comment from : @alzal3254

Should of mixed the paint before pouring it in the other container
Comment from : @zeke112964

Didnt impress me at all,,,most of the vid is thinning the paint,,,I`m more interested in seeing the (watered down paint) being applied
Comment from : @mrcoz1764

Should' ve mix the paint first before pouring it into the empty bucket
Comment from : @phoenixhawk9563

Not mentioned in the video but is very important: Follow the paint manufacturer's thinning recommendations Zinsser says thin no more than 10 water (3 ounces per quart) Scuff-X and Advance are no more than 2 ounces per quart brMost importantly, too much water has adverse implications for paint integrity, stain blocking, and final sheen br[ps I always measure my components before mixing so that I know what ratio works well and what doesn't ]
Comment from : @gk22we2

Thank you very much for the information
Comment from : @mommyharris4778

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
Comment from : @redgreen5831

Would this be an alternative to using paint thinner?
Comment from : @CoolHand24

Personally, I would have stirred the original can of primer first - you’ve left a lot of the properties of the primer in the bottom of the original can
Comment from : @kylieb4836

So what was that disposable paint brush for? Did I mis it?
Comment from : @OscarHanzely

Water? I thought you had to use some kind of special fluid like paint thinner brbrDoes it matter? brIs water okay to thin it out for any project?brAsking these questions Bc I have a big project that I plan to do It doesn’t matter if I fuck up or not, Bc it’s a personal thing
Comment from : @levigrafton6854

Comment from : @hankhamadi3410

Doesn't it make sense to mix the paint can before pouring paint into empty can?
Comment from : @shawnupton476

I use a 22 tip No thinning required
Comment from : @bonnivilleblackcherry9745

So I don’t need actual paint thinner? You can use water? I bought thinner cuz that’s what my manual said to use lol
Comment from : @Libraxbruja

I like to add a glug or two of Floetrol, it really helps during dry weather
Comment from : @pixelatedmushroom5387

So that 6lb air compress worked ?
Comment from : @tayk385

Hi Have a question for you ,can I add a water-base tint to 123 white ?
Comment from : @nigelgoodmansr197

Shouldn't you mixed it before pouring it in the other can
Comment from : @Bdbrad71

There is nothing in this video that is good advice To spray latex through an hvlp you need the correct size needle and nozzle set, a powerful hvlp turbine system and for goodness sake read the paint thinning directions for the product I have never seen a latex paint that can be thinned more than 10 Most latex paints recommend you do not use an hvlp system for application Thinning any water based paint dilutes the solids making the paint cover less and it dulls the sheen
