spraying a ceiling and walls?

[mpooley]

I have to paint my large workshop ceiling and walls - all freshly plasterboarded and filled-.
I have a large compressor and a spray gun so i was thinking about spraying it.
I have never sprayed emulsion before or such a large area. Has anyone done this? or got any comments/tips for me please?

I dont want to muck it up LOL

Thanks

Mike

either use a pressure pot or airless , using an ordinary gun is useless

or lphv works quite well

Ah Thanks! i'd be best to forget that then - get the roller out

Get a 12inch roller and pole and tub for it

Or get it done even quicker with a 15 inch roller, pole & scuttle

Yep...those poles are quite cheap dont let the social catch you paying them though...

Seriously...dont bother with the spray...you need a bit of training and they are not amatuers
