Description
Why should I choose HVLP?
The benefits of HVLP sprayers are that they can atomize paint faster, more accurately, and at a lower pressure than traditional paint guns, creating a softer, more even spray—so you can cover larger areas faster without as many touchups. Plus, the lower pressure also minimizes air pollution.
In comparison to a conventional spray gun that uses high volume high pressure of air, HVLP saves on the pressure of air that is used. The benefit to this is that it reduces overspray which means you reduce paint waste by about 50%. The end result is that a HVLP paint sprayer helps you save money.
How to select your HVLP Paint Sprayer
Maximum spray tip
- You should ensure that you select a sprayer that supports the tip size of the materials you’re planning to use
- The size of the tip determines how much fluid will leave the gun when you pull the trigger and also how wide the spray pattern is
- A wider spray pattern is ideal for larger surfaces whilst a narrow size is better for smaller surfaces
- Light coatings such as lacquers, stains, and enamels are best completed with a smaller tip
- Heavier coatings such as texture will require a larger tip
- Tip extensions are also available - they come in handy for painting surfaces such as high ceilings and foyers
Maximum hose height
- This is a particularly important consideration if you need to paint an area that requires reaching significant heights
- A larger job such as painting a fence will require a longer hose on your sprayer - long-distance jobs will likely require a hose or extension cord of at least 15m
Annual usage
- You should consider how many litres of paint you’re looking to spray per year
- This calculation will help you determine what size of sprayer to select
