Your production quality is off the charts amazing! Sometimes I feel like I'm watching a trailer for an avengers movie 😆 that door and frame turned out perfect! Like the spraying of the hardware too! Reminds me of this 6 unit huge apartment building I did two years ago, all the doors got converted and the oldstyle brass hardware was sprayed a darkish gray. Looked like a million bucks!
Pete that is another cracking job I have to say👌 you are a true tradesmen, not only the way you approach and finish you jobs but how you help out others. You should consider setting your self up with buy me a coffee I think you deserve a return for your efforts👍🏻 Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next vid
You’re so kind, very much appreciate you saying that.. Yeah, “Buy Me a Coffee” is a nice concept, I’ve been running a page for a little while.. buymeacoffee.com/PaintHQ ..I’ve just started to promote it a little more.. first and foremost though, I enjoy what I do and I especially enjoy helping others if I can 🙏 ..Hope you’re well and having plenty of success in the carpentry world 💯 ..I have a lot of respect for the skills involved with ‘old fashioned’ carpentry ..my dad is my hero, at 86 years he can still teach me plenty in his workshop, with good old fashioned tools 😆 ..regards Pete
@@PaintHQ I'll make sure to support you with that 👍🏻 business is good, there seems to be big demand for good tradesmen here in Dublin at the moment. And to be able to spray all my on finishing work seems to be a good gig😁 Your channel is excellent and one of the best I have seen.👌🏻 Them skills from father to son are invaluable and make great memories. Mind yourself and again thank you for your help and producing such great content 🙏
Another great video thanks. I've got a Dulux Academy spray course at the start of September, looking forward to exploring HVLP in addition to the airless I've got.
@@PaintHQ Hi, hope you're well. I enjoyed the course and feel like a HVLP setup would complement the GX21FF well. Would you recommend a dedicated HVLP turbine, or the Gentilin compressor setup from Sprayman? Or something else entirely? If the Gentilin setup, how different is it to a HVLP turbine?
Ah great news, thanks for the feedback 👍 ..that’s a very good question.. basically there’s advantages to both, whilst essentially the atomising technology and results will be the same.. both using air, with a turbine using stages of ‘concentrating’ the air to a ‘HVLP limit’ and a compressor using a conventional method of a tank and compressing the air, with a theoretical ‘no limit’.. Turbine technology will typically be more expensive for a quality unit such as the Graco‘s, I say quality because cheaper units can overheat and cut out or you won’t get the same number of stages to generate the air.. a Turbine unit is lighter and more manoeuvrable, but the airline is thicker and more weighty.. whereas the compressor is heavier to lift out the van and carry up stairs (if required).. but like I do, I often setup in another room or even outside and run the much thinner and flexible airline to the pressure pot.. on that note, I prefer the advantages of a regulated pressure pot, which is more easily achieved with a compressor Vs the passive setup you can achieve with a turbine.. unless you was to purchase a Graco Procomp 9.5 which is excellent technology with its onboard compressor that’s dedicated to purely pressurising a remote pot.. but that’s a bit more of an investment Vs the cost of a compressor.. lastly, with a (suitable) compressor you have the future ability to convert an existing airless unit to AAA - Air Assisted Airless.. the ultimate in a hybrid between airless and airspray technology, which greatly improves transfer efficiency and control 👍 ..Hope this helps a little, sorry for the essay.. my friend Mike at SpraymanUK will be more than happy to assist further with no pressure to purchase, his knowledge is very inspiring 😆 ..and of course I’m more than happy to help any way I can.. in fact I’m with SpraymanUK at this years National P&D show (in November), if you can make it, it’ll be a nice to meet up for a chat 🙏 regards Pete
@@PaintHQ cheers for the advice! I popped into sprayman this afternoon and got the compressor setup with the pressure pot. Looking forward to playing with it!
Ah wow, that’s awesome.. you won’t regret the investment, you’ve got some great kit now 💯 ..I typically don’t look to thin materials, that’s the main reason I like the pressure pot.. not sure what products you’re looking to spray, this video shows me spraying AkzoNobel low viscosity products that feature in quite a few videos.. think I’m spraying a stain blocking primer, otherwise I prefer the WP136 high build primer and aqualit top coat.. if you’re interested, links to Holmans are in the video description and a PaintHQ discount code.. these AkzoNobel products spray beautifully through Airspray/HVLP and airless with .008 FF LP tips 👍 ..anyway, all the best my friend, keep me posted how you get on 🙏 regards Pete Here’s the video, HVLP at the start then some AAA..

Drop the 🎤 boom Pete just left the building leaving behind another cracking bit of work……should have my compressor next week brother can’t wait and I love the Tesa paper there it looked like it had tape on both sides
Haha thank you brother.. yeah always exciting getting new kit, I’ll have to get your opinion on the Devilbiss gun 👍 ..The paper that’s taped on both edges is certainly useful when spraying with air 💨 ..Hopefully a result for the mighty Spurs this afternoon 🙏
@@PaintHQ I’ll bring the Devilbiss so you can test it if you would like…..looking for the full three points today hopefully we will have to much for them. COYS 💪🏻
hi mate what is the box called you store all your tape and paper in ... it saves the tape from getting damaged ... im sprayinging and hanging 8 doors soon for a good freinds...im glad i watched this video top quailty 👍
Hey Gareth, yeah you’re right, very handy for storing and transporting.. the boxes are Tanos Systainers.. a universal storage and stacking system that’s adopted by many brands and they are all able to stack and ‘loc’ together.. exciting spraying project ahead my friend, so pleased you’ve found the information useful.. the method to mask door frames, by creating a shield is very effective at stopping overspray 👍 ..let me know how you progress with the project my friend 👍 regards Pete
Hi great video thanks. I like how it shows all the areas needed to be protected and taped up for doing the edges etc. I’m a beginner in spraying and these videos do help. On the HVLP is there a go to pressure to spray at or are every paint different depending on temperatures etc ? Thank you.
Hey Nicholas, really appreciate the feedback.. yeah and with a little practice the masking doesn’t take long at all.. great question.. the pressure (and fluid pressure, if using a pressure pot) does vary from different paints and environment / temperature like you say.. but you do get used to knowing roughly where you’ll be, as you stir the paint and let it run off the stick.. a great tip especially when starting out, is make a note on your phone ..with airless or HVLP spraying, it helps to note the product and settings / tip size, how it sprayed and if you would alter anything next time.. keep in touch, always happy to help and advise if I can.. good luck on your spraying journey, you won’t look back.. regards Pete
Thank you Pete, I have a airless and HVLP sprayers. I intended to use the HVLP on mainly spindles as I hate brushing them 😂 but yet to use it or even test it out. The airless I got on fine with the few times I have used it for ceilings and miss coating plaster. I tend to overthink it all and get paranoid about the cleaning of the machines, but in time I’ll work out how it can be done quick, and good enough that it doesn’t have to be immaculate looking when cleaned ! Thank you. 👍
Ah that’s great.. airless is certainly easier to master in terms of the logic / process to get spraying, but that said HVLP isn’t difficult either, like everything it becomes second nature with practice.. same with cleaning the sprayers, I’m quite meticulous but they are very forgiving, especially an airless pump being used the next day, it doesn’t necessarily need to be 100% clean.. I’m an advocate of using Pump Armor, it’s worth it and can be reused so it definitely lasts 👍 ..Keep going my friend.. regards Pete
Hey Aaron.. good question.. I do like the ‘versatility’ of the compressor / air spray setup.. less limitations.. portability of the turbine is a big plus.. but then you can setup the compressor sone distance away and run a more flexible air line.. if going with a turbine, I like an onboard compressor to power a remote pot, that you get with the Graco ProComp.. more costly investment but worth it for the dedicated air 👍👍👍 regards Pete
Absolutely beautiful. Would you recommend this comp/gun combo for kitchen remodel where hi quality finish is the most important requirement? I have seen your other upload where you resprayed mahogany banisters, there seemed to be hardly any overspray?
Hey buddy, really appreciate your kind words of support. There was a time that the only way to deliver the finest finish was via HVLP (or even better air assisted airless), now with fine finish airless spray tips, such as Graco FF LP the gap has massively closed.. so it’s a tricky to give a definitive answer.. certainly if you’re spraying the inside of cabinets too and the area being sprayed is tight, it helps to have more fluid and fan control with HVLP.. whereas cabinet doors and cabinet faces, it’s popular to choose airless and lay on the optimal amount of material.. HVLP is trickier to master, too little fluid / a thin coat will result in a rougher finish.. on the subject of overspray (and HVLP), if the fan is narrow you need less air and the control is good (less overspray.. like the banister I sprayed), whereas if you widen the fan, you need more fluid and more air to ‘throw’ the paint wide.. then the trade off with the air is more ‘fog’ ..overspray.. sorry if I’ve caused any confusion, I can appreciate it can all sound complicated.. happy to help some more.. if you need me just reach out 🙏 regards Pete
@@PaintHQ no confusion at all understood everything. I love the generous reply its worth gold to me thank you very much for your time. I was going to start with fuji q5 platinum and apollo gun (have experience spraying new cabinetry high pressure, spray booth etc but thats all), but after seeing you spray those banisters with comp/pot set up, IN BLACK trousers with gun pointing towards you sometimes and no visible spray on your legs, well buddy that got me all fired up and thinking. If I fuji myself I am stuck with that, however comp and hvlp gun gets me half way toward AAA and thats the goal. Anyway thanks for your time and for sharing, you seem to have some lovely uploads cant wait to see them all. Ta
Great content. You’ve really helped me get a good standard of finish from the first time of spraying. One question though. I’ve struggled with masking carpet. Have used a few different tapes but nothing is reliable. Had to resort to sliding thin metal plates under skirting or just pulling carpets up and re fitting them. Any advice? Cheers again.
Hi James, apologies for my delayed response, I will always get back to you.. your support means a lot and I’m so pleased the videos have helped.. what I recommend is a 2” crepe paper masking tape, not the precision washi tapes.. they’re not the real cheap paper tapes, nonetheless it’s not an expensive tape..I’m going to recommend 3 brands / products.. Q1 multi purpose (yellow), Tesa general masking tape and Kip crepe masking tape.. all have good sticking power to hold down the carpet fibres at the edge.. one issue you could be experiencing, is some synthetic carpets have a protective ‘stain repellent’ that would pretty much prevent any tape sticking, even a duct tape.. good luck my friend, keep in touch.. regards Pete
Thanks for that. You’re on the money there! I use the same cheap stain resistant carpets in the rental houses and even duct tape come away. Never even thought that could be the reason. I’ve ended up using aluminium underfloor heating diffusers to wedge under the skirtings. I’ll order some new tape now as the purple low tack your recommended in another video is far better than any other I’ve ever used. Again thank you for all your help. 👍🏻👍🏻
Hello my friend, great to hear from someone starting out in the wonderful world of spraying 🙏 ..is it airless spraying (airless tips) - or HVLP, like the setup in this video (I’m using a 1.5 needle set).. happy to help any way I can, regards Pete 💙
Hello friend, thank you very much for answering. I am now starting to paint with hvlp. I am not a professional but I try to do the best of my question with the hvlp gun. what tips can i use for primer of water? thanks
Hi Pete Could you please give me some advice on what would be the better setup airless or hvlp pressure pot? Does it need thinned with water for the pressure pot. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
Happy to help my friend.. airless spraying is the easier to master Vs HVLP, and with the introduction of Fine Finish airless spray tips, the atomisation is on par with HVLP.. with airless, I don’t thin trim / woodwork paints (don’t look to thin an emulsion either, only to ease flow).. with the right airless spray tip for the viscosity, you should be able to dial in the lowest pressure to effective atomise the paint.. with HVLP and a pressure pot (I prefer a pot), again I don’t look to thin, but it is more likely to need to thin Vs that of airless.. with a pressure pot you get dedicated air to get the paint flowing, rather than for passive air of a gravity cup.. for other reason also, I prefer a compressor / air spray HVLP setup rather than a turbine.. so if you was to be looking to be spraying joinery and you’re new to spraying, I’d go airless (it’s easier).. then in future you could even look at adding a compressor and going Air Assisted Airless.. it’s all money, so I’d recommend one step at a time, but AAA is the ultimate in transfer efficiency and finish.. I more than happy to help and advise further, get you talking to the team at SpraymanUK.. in fact end of November I’m with SpraymanUK at the National P&D trade show in Coventry, it’s a 2 day event.. if that’s accessible to you, we can meet up for a good chat, show you kit, talk paints etc 👍 ..keep in touch... regards Pete
Hiha bud hope all well and your busy and makin a few well deserved pound.. do you think its better to remove the door when sparyin the frames and Surround or just masks the door of as doors are a finished door
Hello my friend.. yeah all good (after a recent bout of covid affected my wife and me).. if finished doors, and they open into the room, it is possible to mask off / protect the door and spray the frame without removing 👍
@PaintHQ sorry to hear that bud (It hasn't gone away ye know) 😢 its whats comin next am worry about. Well good your back on the rite side again. Aye there big Heavy doors so will just keep them on and masks around them... thanks bud
Hi Jianbai, you’re exactly right.. it’s a 1.5mm needle/nozzle set 👍 ..for example, here’s a link that shows the exact one and how you can buy needle/nozzle sets 1.0-2.0mm ... www.sprayman.co.uk/product/anest-iwata-needle-nozzle-set-2-0mm-for-az1-pressure-guns/ Hope this helps my friend.. keep in touch.. regards Pete
Hi Pete, great video, the door handle touch really made a difference. I’ve a quick question, have you moved towards Tesa tapes and pre-taped paper/film (I do like the double tape idea) instead of the hand masker? Hope you’re keeping well. With best wishes, Rob
Hey Rob, really great to hear from you my friend, yeah I’m all good thanks, hope you are too.. that’s a good question and we’ll spotted 😆 ..The innovative masking products produced by Tesa has been on my radar for a while, like you I liked the idea of being able to tape down both edges in one go.. especially useful for spraying with anything producing air.. HVLP / airspray / XVLP ..I still believe the hand masker and mastering its use is invaluable to sprayers, but pre-taped papers are certainly convenient and maybe easier to handle, masking off the inside edge of a door frame 👍 ..wishing you all the very best Rob.. regards Pete
hello Pete how's you? good job as always . 👍 if you had the choice (space) would you still spray your door standing against the wall or lay your door flat? i assume would make no difference especially you been used to spray your doors standing up. best regards Flavio
Hey Flavio, I’m great thank you hope you are too my friend 👍 good question, I typically spray doors vertical, if one or two doors, I lean against an available wall.. in my last video, and the external door in a high gloss, I had the opportunity to lay flat, which was useful to lay on a really nice and healthy coat.. like you say, spraying vertical / against a wall shouldn’t cause any problems once you’re used to a product and how much you can lay on without a risk of a run 🙈 ..all the very best buddy, regards Pete
@@PaintHQ because i am not spraying as much as i would like (busy with different projects) i find it a bit easier to spray them flat if i have the space, with the airless. maybe with the HVLP is a bit different as you seem to have more control on it. also correct me if wrong seems to me paint looks more flat wend spraying the doors flat maybe because is easier to lay a bit thicker. as mention before by others the touch with the handle come up really good. enjoy you bank holiday
Hi Alan, good question my friend.. it was part of the finishing decoration for a bathroom company that’s beautifully fitted anthracite cabinetry and black sanitary ware, so all joinery that’s internal to the bathroom has been colour matched 👍 ..regards Pete
Lovely work Pete, but the hinge side of the frame and door should remain as existing I.e white/varnish , so when you open the door from the other room that's what you see , not the inside colour, Keep up the great work and videos

Hello friend, thank you very much for answering. I am now starting to paint with hvlp. I am not a professional but I try to do the best of my question with the hvlp gun. what tips can i use for primer of water? thanks
Hi Pete
Could you please give me some advice on what would be the better setup airless or hvlp pressure pot?
Does it need thinned with water for the pressure pot.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Happy to help my friend.. airless spraying is the easier to master Vs HVLP, and with the introduction of Fine Finish airless spray tips, the atomisation is on par with HVLP.. with airless, I don’t thin trim / woodwork paints (don’t look to thin an emulsion either, only to ease flow).. with the right airless spray tip for the viscosity, you should be able to dial in the lowest pressure to effective atomise the paint.. with HVLP and a pressure pot (I prefer a pot), again I don’t look to thin, but it is more likely to need to thin Vs that of airless.. with a pressure pot you get dedicated air to get the paint flowing, rather than for passive air of a gravity cup.. for other reason also, I prefer a compressor / air spray HVLP setup rather than a turbine.. so if you was to be looking to be spraying joinery and you’re new to spraying, I’d go airless (it’s easier).. then in future you could even look at adding a compressor and going Air Assisted Airless.. it’s all money, so I’d recommend one step at a time, but AAA is the ultimate in transfer efficiency and finish.. I more than happy to help and advise further, get you talking to the team at SpraymanUK.. in fact end of November I’m with SpraymanUK at the National P&D trade show in Coventry, it’s a 2 day event.. if that’s accessible to you, we can meet up for a good chat, show you kit, talk paints etc 👍 ..keep in touch... regards Pete
@@PaintHQ Thanks for that information 👍🏻
You’re very welcome, happy to help some more, just reach out 🙏
Hiha bud hope all well and your busy and makin a few well deserved pound.. do you think its better to remove the door when sparyin the frames and Surround or just masks the door of as doors are a finished door
Hello my friend.. yeah all good (after a recent bout of covid affected my wife and me).. if finished doors, and they open into the room, it is possible to mask off / protect the door and spray the frame without removing 👍
@PaintHQ sorry to hear that bud (It hasn't gone away ye know) 😢 its whats comin next am worry about. Well good your back on the rite side again. Aye there big Heavy doors so will just keep them on and masks around them... thanks bud
@bootsmclaughlin1438 Thank you buddy ..You’re very welcome 🙏
Your video shows 1.5 needle. Does that mean you are using 1.5mm nozzle? If not, what is the size of the nozzle?
Hi Jianbai, you’re exactly right.. it’s a 1.5mm needle/nozzle set 👍 ..for example, here’s a link that shows the exact one and how you can buy needle/nozzle sets 1.0-2.0mm ...

Hope this helps my friend.. keep in touch.. regards Pete
Hi Pete, great video, the door handle touch really made a difference.
I’ve a quick question, have you moved towards Tesa tapes and pre-taped paper/film (I do like the double tape idea) instead of the hand masker?
Hope you’re keeping well. With best wishes, Rob
Hey Rob, really great to hear from you my friend, yeah I’m all good thanks, hope you are too.. that’s a good question and we’ll spotted 😆 ..The innovative masking products produced by Tesa has been on my radar for a while, like you I liked the idea of being able to tape down both edges in one go.. especially useful for spraying with anything producing air.. HVLP / airspray / XVLP ..I still believe the hand masker and mastering its use is invaluable to sprayers, but pre-taped papers are certainly convenient and maybe easier to handle, masking off the inside edge of a door frame 👍 ..wishing you all the very best Rob.. regards Pete
hello Pete how's you? good job as always . 👍 if you had the choice (space) would you still spray your door standing against the wall or lay your door flat? i assume would make no difference especially you been used to spray your doors standing up. best regards Flavio
Hey Flavio, I’m great thank you hope you are too my friend 👍 good question, I typically spray doors vertical, if one or two doors, I lean against an available wall.. in my last video, and the external door in a high gloss, I had the opportunity to lay flat, which was useful to lay on a really nice and healthy coat.. like you say, spraying vertical / against a wall shouldn’t cause any problems once you’re used to a product and how much you can lay on without a risk of a run 🙈 ..all the very best buddy, regards Pete
@@PaintHQ because i am not spraying as much as i would like (busy with different projects) i find it a bit easier to spray them flat if i have the space, with the airless. maybe with the HVLP is a bit different as you seem to have more control on it. also correct me if wrong seems to me paint looks more flat wend spraying the doors flat maybe because is easier to lay a bit thicker. as mention before by others the touch with the handle come up really good. enjoy you bank holiday
You’re spot on Flavio 👍 Wishing you a great bank holiday too my friend 🙏
Top man 💪
Thank you James, you’re a diamond.. hope you’re keeping well my friend and having plenty of spraying success 🙏
@@PaintHQ thanks man. Love spraying. Great to see you busy as usual mate! 😃
Why did you spray the outside edge of the door and frame ?
Hi Alan, good question my friend.. it was part of the finishing decoration for a bathroom company that’s beautifully fitted anthracite cabinetry and black sanitary ware, so all joinery that’s internal to the bathroom has been colour matched 👍 ..regards Pete
Lovely work Pete, but the hinge side of the frame and door should remain as existing I.e white/varnish , so when you open the door from the other room that's what you see , not the inside colour,
Keep up the great work and videos
Thank you Alan ..you make a very valid point, something I did evaluate 👍 appreciate your input my friend 🙏
No problem, I do love your work and wish I was as good with a spray unit as you , I'll keep watching and learning , many thanks for your work !
You’re so kind, thank you.. You can do it too 💯 ..and I’m happy to help and advise if I’m ever able to 👌👍
I can get the same results with a Wagner Flexio 590
Thank you Tony, appreciate your input 🙏
