Realities and myths about paint spraying

A number of people get worried when Gold Coast painters use spray painting guns as they think that the paint particles might damage the accessories and fixtures of the house. But is there actually something to be worried about? Here are a few explanations to help you understand spray painting better.

Firstly, you must know that there are three types of spray painting guns, and each gun is used for a particular type of painting because each has different attributes.

  • The spray painting gun used for furniture sprays very small droplets. Also, the spray is not really powerful.
  • Airless paint sprayer or airless spray painting gun is the most popularly used. It is great for painting cornices. The paint drops are sprayed with high pressure. According to the requirement the pressure can be adjusted. Therefore, when painting metals we choose high pressure of around 1000 PSI and for wood surface, lower pressure is used.
  • When it comes to painting large surfaces, large calibre spray gun is used. It used to apply epoxy on concrete floors in industrial buildings. The pressure in these guns is more than airless spray guns.

Spray guns are harmless when

  • Droplets are small and professionals hold the gun close to the surface  Without a doubt, the smaller the droplets are quicker they will dry. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about the nearby surfaces or the flooring. However, experts recommend to move away the objects that are easy to move.

    It is essential to always protect the ground or floor. This way, no mess will be made on the flooring and the paint drops that still fall on the ground will be quick to clean, no matter if they are wet or not.
  • There is no wind
    When the user is not careful, the wind can throw the paint particles on the other surfaces. If the winds are heavy, the paint will take longer to dry. Skilled painters Gold Coast know about how to work in windy conditions.

    The professional residential and commercial painters get proper training to use the spray painting guns in a correct and safe way.
  • So are paint sprayers dangerous? Broadly speaking they are not. Usually, the thrown particles are so small that they generally dry even before they could hit the ground. In addition, Gold Coast painters are trained to use these painting tools in a right way. So you don’t have to worry about anything.  For more details, feel free to call us.
