PAINT SPRAY A COAT OF PRIMER

PAINT SPRAY A COAT OF PRIMER

Prepare an area for paint spraying by laying down a painter’s drop cloth – if you’re painting inside of your garage, a Wagner Studio Spray Tent provides better paint containment. Fill the front end detail nozzle with primer paint and spray plant pot or box completely.
