Trim Painting –New Construction & Remodel
Newly installed trim work on houses that are vacant will almost always be painted with spray application. I used to spray oil but now I have found an acrylic product that looks virtually identical to an oil enamel and hardens like an oil but does not have the V.O.C issue like an oil based product has.
There are three basic spray systems I use for interior trim spray enamel work. For smaller spray jobs I will use an HVLP. The advantage of this type of system is the low amout of spray mist in the air. With the HVLP system I have the ability to produce a fine mist of paint and focuse the paint spray pattern to cover only the surface to be painted. The main disadvantage is the fairly low production rate. It simply takes longer to cover the surface with an HVLP.
For larger projects where faster production rates are necessary and there are large surface areas to cover, an airless paint spray system is best. There is more over spray with this system but the finished appearance is as smooth. I will use a double orifice tip to ensure the best paint atomization possible and eliminate any orange peel . You will be left with a finished appearance smooth as glass and free of any runs or sags.
The third spay application method is a hybrid system with combines the two spray methods above. Its called an “air assisted airless” and basically helps speed up the paint delivery with the use of a pump but lowers the over-spray floating in the air and all owes for greater control of the spray pattern. This type of system also requires less paint to be wasted.
