Great video Phil. Might invest in one of these for outside fence or garage jobs. Do you think you ended up saving time given all the time on prep and clean up for inside the house?
Yes I think I did save time Wendy. It took only an hour of painting in the end, but if I used a brush, maybe 10 hours (to do 3 coats). It was about 90 minutes of prep, 90 minutes of clean-up. 4 hours in total. I was going slow as I was new to the sprayer. I could get faster, and I'm sure with practice I could reduce overspray issue a bit too. The prof. painters I spoke with all use sprayers for decorative cornices and ceiling roses.
