    Good Day All..I used the 2 mm tip with black air cap...no thinning was required. The emerald went on with a tad bit of orange peel, but leveled out to a smooth finish. In my experience (only cabinet doors ) there needs to be enough paint on the surface in order to level out. I used the Emerald in a semi gloss finish and I was concerned it would be too glossy and show all the imperfections..however it turned out great.
    I hope this information help as I could not find the answers when researching.

    You know more than a lot of contractors! Great video. I am using the same Sherwin Williams products with the exception of the primer. I am using Bin, from Zinsser. It’s an alcohol-based and shellac based primer that dries super quick. I put two coats of primer and to finish coats and sanding in between. Great job! You get 2 enthusiastic thumbs up for this video.

    Wow great job! I do not think a pro could have done better. You have given me the confidence to buy that Homeright sprayer to do cabinets. The reviews I have read were mostly good on the sprayer with a few exceptions but I was still undecided. The key most likely for success is the use of high quality paints. Btw I usually don’t give safety comments, but as a previous poster said you need a respirator when dealing with oil paints and also eye protection.

    The cabinets came out beautifully! I love the combination of the green and the brass! Vintage, but updated! We are looking to move just outside of Richmond (Midlothian, VA) next year and watching your videos each week make me more and more excited to move!

    Did you need to thin the Emerald paint before spraying? What sprayer did you use and what settings? Thanks.

    Your finished cabinets look great! Beautiful kitchen! One question: did you have to thin the Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel with water in order for the sprayer to give you a smooth finish? I'm looking for a sprayer that will spray the Emerald *without* thinning (Sherwin Williams says not to thin it at all). Thanks.

    Hey! Great video. Ended up picking up the same sprayer based off your recommendation. I'm painting cabinets as well and have read that you need to thin out the paint and primer. I'm using the same paint you did. My questions is, did you experience any bumps that needed to be sanded down after priming? And did your pain level out after you sprayed? Thanks so much for the recommendation and the video!

    Great video, thanks for sharing. It looks like you sprayed your cabinets with the Home Right Super Finish Max Sprayer. I too am doing a project using this spray gun and the SW Emerald Urethane. I've got a few questions. Which tip did you use on your gun to lay the green? Do you recall the approximate flow setting you used on the sprayer? Did you thin the paint at all? I'm not getting great results; a bunch of orange peel and pitting. Any insight you can offer would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Great video, I have just started spraying my daughters maple cabinets- going from natural clear to white. I use SW product all the time, SW rep told me to use the Multi Purpose Latex primer with my Grace Ultimate airless, which I did. I applied one coat and just checked them 3 days later, looked like some bleed through of the maple. I am wondering if I have to spray another coat of primer or will 2 coats of the Emerald Urethane Trim (white) cover the maple colour bleed through? Also, what grit do you use to sand the primer? Kim

    im wondering if i should go with a hvlp with an air compressor or this airless product. but most of the pictures i see online the airless products give an orange peel finish. was this the case with you?

    The Finish looks great, I called my local store today and they recommended Emerald urethane paint, this is the first real example I have seen. I'm building my own cabinets and the finishing can be just as stressful. BTW, how much Emerald was used? Was it more than 1 Gallon?

    Did you have to caulk the doors? Do you see any cracks in the paint afterwards?

    I’ve used emerald urethane trim enamel and find it to be very sticky even after 2wks. Also the paint washed off when wiping the cabinets down with a rag in soap and water.

    I've had trouble spraying the SW Trim Enamel paint. After watching your video I'm going to try the Homeright Super Max. How well did it lay paint? Did you thin it at all? What settings did you use on the sprayer? Which color tip? I know you sanded the primer, did you sand the paint at all?

      Use clear amonia. Thinner will dry out rubber components within your system shortening the life of your sprayer. Mix amonia w water (1to1 ratio) then flush with water.

    • @thetalentedmr.richie1725
      @thetalentedmr.richie1725 5 років тому

      You clean with paint thinner. Put it in the cup and shoot the thinner through the gun just like you would the paint.

    Oil based primer requires a real respirator with organic vapor cartridges.... don't use a paper mask, it doesn't block oil fumes and even particles too.

    Hello. My cabinet is a yellowish white, while the door of the cabinet is normal white. If I spray the cabinet with white spray, is it enough or do I need a primer and clear coat as well? If yes, why?
