Using the 1x2 and 1x3 pieces, build the framework with pocket screws.

Using a stud finder and level, mark the wall where the shelves will go.

Use the drywall screws to attach the frame to the wall.

Cut the ½” and 5mm plywood down to size.

Paint the plywood using the Flexio 4000.

Using wood glue, attach the plywood to the frame. Clamp them together for 1-2 hours.

Using a finish nailer, attach the trim to the floating shelves.

Finish up by painting the trim pieces by hand or with a sprayer before installing.

Take the time to set up the Flexio 4000 sprayer correctly.

Always hold the sprayer about 6-8 inches from the surface and move the sprayer in smooth even passes across your surface.

Finally, allow the paint to dry completely before adding another coat or touching up any spots.

Set the pressure control on the X-Boost power dial to medium-low. This controls how much air power is created by the base.

Set the material flow, which controls the amount that will be sprayed. Because stain is much thinner than latex paint, you want it to be about 4-6.

Change the air cap to match the direction you’re going to paint, either horizontal or vertical. I love that you can easily switch back and forth!

Add paint to the cup and tighten the nozzle assembly.

That’s it! Pretty simple, right?
