I'm just getting started spraying paint finishes on my projects.I got tired of time consumed and poor quality of finishing with a brush or roller.
So far my learning curve has been fairly steep because I've painted everything from bedroom and living furniture to plantation shutters I'm building in the 3 months since I began.I started with a cup sprayer and I got decent fishes but the overspray was unbelievable.So i bought a hvlp gun and have been getting good results but it's taking a few more coats (3 or 4) to cover and get an adequate finish. I can live with this to cut back on overspay, I'm just wondering if this is normal?
Thanks in advance for your help,
chris
